The holiday season has come to both Call of Duty: Vanguard and Call of Duty: Warzone Pacific in a brutal way as Krampus, the half-goat, half-monster mythical creature from the European folklore, has entered the battlefield, not to steal naughty children, but to hunt down those who are unfortunate enough to face it.
However, its arrival caused a lot of trouble in the aforementioned first-person shooting games as players that are participating in the in-game event are having a rough time defeating it. Because of this, they are looking for solutions on how to kill the monster.
Where to Find the Krampus
In order to defeat the Krampus in both Vanguard and Warzone Pacific, players must find it first. According to Gamepur, the creature from the European folklore will appear in the Vanguard's objective-based modes Control or Domination.
Later in the matches in these said game modes, the announcer will notify them that the monster will appear and target the player, or players, that has a lowest overall score.

It will also tell them that they need to perform at a higher rate in order for them to avoid being attacked by the Krampus.
The monster will also appear in Warzone Pacific's classic battle royale and Vanguard Royale game modes.
Once they are in one of those game modes, they will need to go one of the Christmas Fir Trees that are scattered across the map and will be marked with a green tac, indicating where they are in the area.
Once they secured the location, and nabbed the coal from its loot box, they will discover the monster, and hear its footsteps that are inching closer towards them, telling them that it will hunt them down.
Killing the Krampus
Whether they encounter it in Vanguard or Warzone Pacific, the Krampus will have 365 Health, which means players will have a hard time defeating this tanky character that roaming in the wild.
Because of this, they need to pick the weapons that can be used to take the monster down. According to Dexerto, light machine guns such as the DP27, the MG24, the Type 11, and the Bren gun can be the best choice to kill the Krampus.
Once they got the gun that can do the job, according to Charlie Intel, they will need to keep their distance, and fire their weapons at the monster to drain its health. While attacking it, they need to move around in an open space, while staying away from the corners.
As they are firing their light machine guns towards the Krampus, they will also watch its movements, including instances that he is preparing to attack them. Once it attacks, they will take cover behind the trees in the area.
They will continue doing this until they either survive the Krampus' attack, which according to Dot Esports, will last for three minutes long, or kill it completely.
If they did the former, it will disappear eventually in the area, but if they succeeded in doing the latter, they will be rewarded with 2,000 XP, $10,000, and a box full of ammunitions.
