Mantis Petra

Hunter's Journal


Lurks amongst foliage and attacks by flinging wild wind-scythes from a distance.



''They will harass you from afar, so get close and strike quickly. Their bodies are brittle and will easily fall to your nail.''

Behaviour and Tactics
They hover just outside of the player's melee reach. They fling wind-scythes at their target, that arcs downward and then come back up.

If possible, try to get slightly above them to lure them close and hit them with a Nail Art or Spell before they hover away again. Alternatively, using Howling Wraiths/Abyss Shriek or Grubberfly's Elegy will close the distance.

They often show up in groups with another Petra or a Mantis Traitor. Get rid of them first, as their aerial attacks make fighting ground-based enemies aggravating.
