Mantis Traitor

Hunter's Journal


Once a member of the Mantis Tribe, now cast out and driven mad by infection.

'' Belonging to a tribe, or not belonging. I don't really understand what the difference is, or how it works. I have no tribe of my own.''

Behaviour and Tactics
If the player is in front of a Mantis Traitor, it will perform a lunge and slash with long range. If the player is airborne in front of a Mantis Traitor, it will jump a short height, then perform a diagonal slash downwards followed by a forward lunge. If the player is directly above a Mantis Traitor, it will sometimes perform a quick upward swipe.

The best tactic is to bait out its long forward lunge, jump over it, and get a hit or two in before dashing away and repeating. Mantis Traitors have a much faster recovery time on their attacks than most enemies, so it is wise not to stay close too long after they attack.

Trivia

 * As said in their name, the Mantis Traitors are exiles from the Mantis Village. They are ruled by the Traitor Lord.
