Location & Gathering
Fester Fleas are completely passive creatures and have no form of attacks. They will fly around aimlessly, generally trying to avoid conflict. Sometimes they stick to walls and scuttle around. They move incredibly fast when flying. When shot at or approached, they will panic and fly away at their top speeds, trying to get away from the Dwarves. Excessive noise and combat can also cause a Fester Flea to fly away.
The amount of Fleas needed to complete the Secondary Objective varies but there will always be more than are needed (though killing extra Fleas will not reward anything more than a trifling XP bonus in the single digits). Once the required amount of Fester Fleas are killed, Mission Control will announce the completion of the Secondary Objective.
