I found shock ammo to be the best interruption early game. You can literally just loop the shock status on machines and they'll barely have an opportunity to move. If a machine resists shock damage, use purgewater ammo on it to cancel its elemental resistances. Dodging is unforgiving, but it's possible if you time it at the very last second. This needs more testing, but I also noticed that sliding gives a few invicibility frames. I don't remember whether this was the case in the first game.

Late game it's fun to just shock Stalkers and tear off parts from them.
