Behaviour and Tactics

  • Slash: if the player is in front of them, they perform a lunge and slash with a long range.
  • Lunge: If the player is airborne, they will jump a short height, then perform a diagonal slash downwards, followed by a forward lunge.
  • Upward Swipe: if the player is directly above it, 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.
