Of the new enemies, Doom Hunters are definitely my favorite. Like the artist in me wants to say it's overdesigned, but it all comes together into a badass demon. Even the Doom Hunter Base is one of my favorite base game levels.

That post stagger buff to hp is interesting

@RacingSnails64 2 жыл бұрын

It is really interesting, but it doesn't seem intentional, more like a weird overlooked quirk. Similarly, certain enemies like Hell Knights and Cacos are more resistant to getting killed while flashing. You can execute a staggered Arachnotron with one shotgun shot but the other 2 take 2. Really weird. If it's an actual mechanic I wish it was better explained.

@LordFindogask734 2 жыл бұрын

I find it interesting how even after disabling the shield, he still takes damage to the sled, which makes the flyer mode mandatory. I guess that being able to damage the upper body once the shield is deactivated would make the Doom Hunter a lot less threatening.

I saw you suggesting ideas on the existing Eternal demons on your channel and wondered: You know FooSarr? Because he makes videos comming up with ideas for enemies that could work in Doom. I like when people try to come up with fanmade enemies because it shows that there's still a lot that can be done with the games and goes back to the legacy of mods and custom monsters in Doom. From the basic Realm667/Dehacked enemies to the more impressive GZDoom coded heavy beasts with fancier sprites and attacks. When Eternal modding gets better, the potential will increase.

@HobeyDator 2 жыл бұрын

This Is ID Softwares Favorite Demon. Heck, He Is The Only One With An Exclusive Trailer. The Fact Is, During The Early Development, The Doom Hunter Will Play As The Role Of Nemesis Whom Will Stalk The Players Randomly After His Introduction In Later Levels. Besides, He And The Marauder Were Supposed To Have Newer Abilities Over The Progress Of Your Level, Think Of Them As A Nemesis Pursuer Demon Class. This Was Described During The Early Development, However The Reason Why It Was Scrapped Still Remains Unknown.

I wanna read/hear where they talked about the Doom Hunter development

@GameJunkyard11 2 жыл бұрын

It was probably scrapped because giving the same enemy new abilities as you progress would mess with the consistency and players would need to constantly change their approach to the enemy. That's why the gold doom hunter is gonna be added in the master level, he will have a few new attacks.

Thank you for your uploads I appreciate you. Just a thought, I wish there were more Doom Hunter encounters where they can actually be possessed. Everytime I play blood swamps I let the doom hunter get possessed in the fog area. It's awesome. I think it's the only place it can happen too.. I've tried on the Holt's spirit Tyrant fight, the spirit just chooses to despawn instead of possessing the doom hunter. Does anyone know of any other fights where he can get possessed?

@Mrcryptidsarereal 2 жыл бұрын

If they remove the weakness to Blood Punch that would be a start. Like, 4/5ths of its HP taken away basically makes it a non-threat at close range, especially when you add on the ice bomb. Speaking of the ice bomb, IIRC the boss Doom Hunters are immune to ice bomb so I wonder if keeping that immunity to regular Doom Hunters would make them too tough. Maybe that can be amended if they only become vulnerable to ice bomb once the plasma shield is down...

Does doing damage to his body after destroying his shield in his first phase make him easier to kill in his second phase? In other words, if you avoid hitting his sled and just shoot his body, does it take less time to kill him after he gets knocked off of it?

@RacingSnails64 2 жыл бұрын

It doesn't seem to make much difference that I can ever recall. If anything that makes the battle longer and more tedious. He's super easy to melt if you go straight for the sled first anyways.

@chriscorcoran4515 2 жыл бұрын

@@RacingSnails64 That's true if you have a blood punch. If not, Just shooting his sled can take even longer. I often go for the shields with a microwave beam, and that doesn't take too long for me at least. I do think that they should reduce the damage that blood punches do to the sled, and they should make it so that do more damage while his shield is down can make his second phase quicker.

@GameJunkyard11 2 жыл бұрын

@@chriscorcoran4515 Yeah, they don't really feel like Super Heavy demons. Blood punches turn them into a joke, which is weird game design for what is supposed to be one of the main enemies of the whole game.

So you said the cannon does 100 damage, but in the video you had 200 hp, got hit by the cannon twice, first hit took you down to 100 but the second hit took you down to 15. what's with that? Edit, same thing happened with the chainsaw, first hit took you from 200 to 100, then the second hit took you to 25

@shinobi_endure 2 жыл бұрын

Agreed on Doom Hunter and Samur. Those 2 are the only bosses I feel are actually strong enough to be called Bosses. Gladiator is just a Super Marauder, Khan Maykr and Icon of Sin are just bullet sponges. Most of Eternal's boss fights are underwhelming.
