The various Minions are among the most common enemies in the game and the closest in size to Fury. Burlier than the Sycophants and lacking their weaponry, the Minions attack with ravenous speed and razor-sharp claws.
Like many enemies, the Minions can be identified by their color, with red being among the weakest and the black ones being the deadliest (often with red eyes, denoting an enemy that won’t respawn). With the exception of the Black Minion, the Blue Minion is the one you should focus on first, as it’s capable of calling for backup.
Try to isolate the Minions by getting their attention one at a time, or, if that’s not possible, aim to keep Fury’s back against a wall so they can’t surround her. These enemies are not terribly difficult to defeat, especially once you get the hang of the Arcane Counter maneuver, but they pose a legitimate threat when in a gang.
The base of the main stairs in Splintered Station is one area where things can get tricky. Watch your Health carefully here and don’t hesitate to activate Havoc Form if the Blue Minion summons backup or if Fury gets surrounded. Activate the Flame Hollow and try to Flame Jump into a Chimera’s Growl to escape being surrounded. Better still, trigger either the Immolation or Cataclysm Wrath attack to knock them back.
