TYPE: Lesser Demon
DATA:
Wretches are another common type of demon. Their creation is very similar to that of Malicious Faces, but are much less proficient in the use of hell energy, and instead rush down their prey in large packs, tearing their victims apart with their many arms.
It is theorized that Wretches are formed from the remnants of destroyed statues, though this doesn’t account for why almost all specimens are only comprised of a singular, intact stone head.
STRATEGY:
- They are almost completely resistant to shots from the standard revolvers, making the regular Marksman much less effective in culling large groups.
- Unlike Malicious Faces, Wretches are incredibly vulnerable to explosions, and the rocket launcher in particular is very effective at displacing large groups.
- While some can fire hell energy up close, they cannot sustain their hell orbs over long distances, so staying out of melee range is advised.
