    Description

    Wraiths are grey stealthy creatures capable of cloaking, making them impossible to see or hit. Their rapid appearances and disappearances allow them to create the illusion of teleportation. In reality, they simply move while cloaked, making it impossible to determine where they'll pop up next. Fortunately, when wraiths uncloak, they emit a high-pitched screeching sound, giving you an audio cue of their presence. Wraiths fire a powerful convergence laser, so watch out for these red beams zeroing in on your location. Once Initiated, the laser attack's aim cannot be adjusted. If you simply dive out of the way of the lasers converge, you can avoid taking heavy damage. But don't let these pesky creatures live long enough to launch follow-up attacks.

    The Rocket Launcher is most effective against wraiths. As soon as a wraith appears, rapidly fire two rockets to take them out, preferably before they can cloak. Melee strikes are also effective at close range, especially once you purchase the Melee Training upgrade. Don't get locked in a duel with a wraith. If a wraith begins firing its laser, get out of the way first before counter-attacking. In some instances, wraiths may also deploy psychic barriers. These transparent amber-coloured barriers act like impassable membranes, preventing you from escaping. They also let you know that a wraith is in the area.
