Doom Guide › Bestiary

Baron of Hell

The Baron of Hell is the highest demon among the order of the Hell Knights. They rarely leave Hell, and no Baron of Hell has yet been captured by any of the Tethering Operations. Details regarding their behavior and physiology are therefore limited.

First Appearance Kadingir Sanctum
Health 3500
Type Melee
Strengths/Weaknesses Shots to the head cause the most damage. Use the plasma rifle’s stun ability to stun the Baron, allowing you to keep your distance while still attacking.
Behavior Barons of Hell chase after the player and try to claw them to death. These demons are so relentless they can even attack during traversals. In addition to robust close-quarters combat abilities, Barons of Hell can throw fireballs while closing the distance, or when a player gets out of reach.
Restrictions N/A
