The Claws: Nocturnal Hunter

Overview

Forget the standard Tank. The Claws is a blind, relentless hunter that only stalks the map when night falls. He doesn't need eyes to find you—he tracks every gunshot and movement you make. Once he locks onto his target, he closes the distance with a lethal lunge. He’s not like other bosses; he’s a different kind of threat.

Key Features:

• Nocturnal Predator: Only spawns at night, patrolling his territory until he hears prey. 50% spawn chance.
• Blind Tracker: He doesn't see you at first; he hunts by sound and proximity. Keep your noise down, or you'll give away your position.
• Lethal Dash: Replaces the rock throw with a high-speed lunge every 10 seconds, allowing him to close the gap instantly and strike.
• Built for Speed: 30% faster than a standard Tank.
• Precision Strikes: Deals 33% less damage per hit and has reduced knockback, designed to bleed you out rather than throwing you across the map.
• Deep Wounds: His claws cause a lingering bleed effect that scales with difficulty.
• Glass Cannon: Has 50% less health than a standard Tank.
• Enraged State: Once their health drops below 50%, a "fury" animation is triggered; subsequently, their speed increases by 15%—indicated by a change in their running posture—and the cooldown of their abilities is reduced by half.
