Description
Ravagers make up the bulk of the Plague's fighting forces and use a range of biological weapons. There are three ravagar variants, each with a unique attack ability. Red Ravagers are the most common, and attack at range by firing razor quills. Blue ravagers channel bio-electric energy into a slow moving ranged projectile of ball lightning. While the ball ligtning causes heavy damage and has a slight area of effect, it moves slowly enough to dodge when seen incoming. The yellow ravagers fire a mass of biological matter than explode upon contact, causing damage in a wide area and destroying whatever they hit. Ravagers can often be found clinging to ceilings and walls and, like creepers, always attack in large groups.
Despite their size and ferocity, ravagers can't withstand a tonne of damage. A couple of melee strikes or hits from light weapons are enough to bring these creatures down. Just as with the Cultists, always aim for their head. Once available, deploy the Shell Nano Forge ability when confronting large groups of ravagers to repel their projectile attacks.
