This guide is essentially my attempt at creating a bestiary of Pixel Heroes' monsters and less monstrous enemies alike.

After dying repeatedly because I forgot which enemies do what I started to note down attacks, weaknesses and other things along those lines. I thought I might as well make this a public guide, maybe it will help out others!


It is an ongoing project and there are a few dungeons I have not yet completed or haven't gathered enough information yet. The guide could also do with a few pictures of enemies. It will grow!

The guide will be split in seperate sections for every dungeon. It will list the dungeon's general elements and inhabitants as well as all their attacks (or at least the ones they decided to use on my adventurers so far). There will be a TL;DR version below every dungeon's name that goes over all status effects you will likely encounter whilst exploring the dungeon.

• BYTING WOODS - Dungeon completed
  
• DEVIL'S REEF - Dungeon completed, enemies done, needs pictures
  
• HAUNTED MANSION - Dungeon completed, enemies done, needs pictures
  
• BONEYARD - Dungeon completed, enemies done, needs pictures
  
• ARCANE ARMORY - Dungeon completed, enemies done, needs pictures
  
• GOBLIN OUTPOST - Dungeon completed, enemies done, needs pictures
  
• STORMY PEAKS - Dungeon completed, needs more information, needs pictures
  
• SUNKEN EMPIRE - Dungeon not started
  
• ANCIENT TEMPLE - Dungeon started, not yet completed
  
• VOLCANO - Dungeon not started
  
• CYCLOPEAN PYRAMID - Dungeon started, not yet completed

This is an example of how information regarding enemies will be displayed in the guide:

• Goblin Shaman
  Fireball (Phoenix): Single-target spell that can inflict Burning (1-2)
  Thunderbolt (Griffon): Single-target spell that can inflict Stun (1-2)

First of all we have the enemy - in this case a Goblin Shaman.
After that I note the attack's name as well as the element - "Fireball (Phoenix)".
Next is the description of what said attack does - Fireball is a single-target spell that can set things on fire.
The last bit of information in the brackets (1-2) is where in your party the spell usually hits. In Fireball's scenario, it will hit the first two members of your party.
Information I find particularly important will be highlighted in bold, like this!

Please note that the enemy tends to shoot off attacks quite randomly, and especially single-target attacks might be able to hit different targets in addition the ones I wrote down. Those are just MY experiences with enemy spells.

Enemy Main Element: Wyrm

TL;DR: Many enemies with access to Bleeding, Poison, Sick and a little bit of Dull. Infest is the big issue both whilst fighting through the dungeon and against the boss, be sure you have immunities!

Enemy Main Element: Griffon
Countered by: Phoenix
TL;DR: In addition to the Soft, Burning, Bleeding and Confusion status effects an added hazard in this dungeon is the fact that a lot of enemies are either resistant to physical or magical attacks. Arcane Armory's boss comes with party-wide attacks that can burn, it can heal and harden itself and is highly resistant to physical damage

“Ah, the Arcane Armory! A dangerous place, controlled by an alchemist who went mad during the Great War. You should prepare yourself for enemies that can stun you and make you soft.

Beware of the insane alchemists, they wield powerful spells and have healing abilities! Weapons infused with the phoenix spirit could help you defeat the dark forces within.”

• Goblin Elite

TL; DR: Soft, Bleed and Stun. Overall one of the more forgiving dungeons. Bring some Phoenix spells and enemies should barely live long enough to touch you (hence why there is almost no information about them yet). The boss itself comes with the Soft, Bleed and Stun status effects.
