Mantis Warrior

Hunter's Journal


''Member of a proud tribe, fiercely protective of its territory. Launches savage attacks with bladed forelimbs.   ''

''If you venture too deep into the Fungal Forests, these warriors will stand in your way. What is it they guard, deep at the bottom of their territory?''

Behaviour and Tactics
These foes attack with very quick, lithe slashes from their claws, often with a short dash.

Their attacks are quite difficult to dodge, so sometimes you may just want to facetank their attacks, kill them as fast as possible and heal afterwards.

If possible, try to attack them from the air, nail-bouncing on their heads. Though they do have an upward slash attack, it will usually miss, typically allowing you to pogo on their heads with impunity until they're dead.

Trivia
On the official website it is referred to as Lesser Mantian:

"The Mantian tribe were always the outsiders of Hallownest society. After the cataclysm, these inscrutable hunters retreated into the fungal forests to escape the plague."
