Mayhem Warmonger

Description

I’ve never seen up close something as… repulsive, hideous, and stinky. I can’t believe that ‘it’ has a mother and a father. It doesn’t seem like a creature from this world. But I should focus, observe, and document! Let’s see…

This grunt is humongous. I estimate 550 pounds, at least. With his armor, I’m sure that he’s closer to 900. I’m about 130, and Aran should be no more than 200 at the most.

His strength and size allow him to wield that enormous hammer effortlessly. Better that Aran keeps his distance. Striking him in the back sounds like a reasonable tactic, even if it is an ungentlemanly one.

Oh, Blessed Forgers! We’ve found another Mayhem Warmonger. Onto my notes:

Blocking will not help at all with this brute. I’ve seen him use his weight and size to overwhelm Aran, even if he sometimes manages to defend himself for a while, weapon dependent.

I can assert that wearing him down is quite a good idea! Aran should remain out of his reach and provoke him to attack and miss. This makes him a pretty slow and predictable fellow. But it is easier to write this stuff than to confront him myself.

I just can’t grasp how Aran slays these barbarians. I just hope these observations can help:

I think that you can only break the warmonger’s mighty block with a very heavy weapon. If Aran cannot overcome his defense, then the creature counterstrikes sharply. The only way to avoid that attack is to dodge sideways.

I’ve seen this enemy frenzy often, which makes him much more lethal. Aran should recognize that warmongers are tireless while in a frenzy, so trying to make them use up their stamina then is not going to work.
