Doom Guide › Bestiary

Spectre

An unfortunate result of a misguided attempt to genetically modify a Pinky. Four beasts were captured; only one survived the vivisection and ended up with slight psionic abilities. The beast was accidentally released, thinking it had escaped its pen due to its new-found cloaking ability.

First Appearance Titan’s Realm
Health 2000
Type Melee (charge)
Strengths/Weaknesses Unlike Pinkies, Spectres don’t have any armor, but they do have a cloaking device and only a rough outline of them is visible. Take advantage of this creature’s natural aggression by coaxing them into running off ledges to their death. Shoot them with a Stun Shot to disable their cloaking device.
Behavior Spectres chase their victims and try to gore them. If you get too close, they clear space with a succession of bites. These beasts don’t have any ranged attacks, but can charge to cover significant ground quickly.
Restrictions Must be introduced after Pinky
Attack Chart
NameTypeLevelDistanceDamage Bonus
Bite Melee Basic Short N/A
Charge Melee Advanced Long Displace, Dizzy
Swipe Melee Basic Short N/A
Notes
Charge Only one Spectre can charge at a time; two in Nightmare. Damage scales depending on distance.
