The War Party has arrived! Look out for the deadly Orc Chieftain! Debuts in Chaos X maps.
Behavior
The Orc Chieftain is a slow moving, high health enemy that deals high damage and upon reaching low health, enrages, buffing itself and all nearby enemies. The buff provides increased speed, healing over time and large resistance to all damage sources for a short period of time - this buff also strengthens nearby goblins and orcs in a slightly different way.
Strategy
Unlike other high health enemies, it can be difficult to focus and eliminate the Orc Chieftain quickly due to its buff and damage resistance. Blockades act as one of their best counters, halting the Chieftains' immense pushing power. Crowd control effects and slows are difficult to use yet can inflict fatal damage to the Chieftains, even defeating them through their many buffs. Petrify (Poison & Earth) and Shatter (Ice & Earth) are the most notable. Moreover, the Engineer's railgun can prove useful, its unique ability to target down the highest health enemy can quickly trigger the Chieftain's buff before it gains too much ground. Moreover, using your hero's damage to burst down the Chieftain early can also pose useful in crippling their advance. Arguably the most reliable counter to the Chieftains would be the Anti-Heal Mod. Dropped from Chaos 10 maps, this mod can counteract the healing factor behind the Chieftains' buff, however the insane damage resistance buff remains.
Appearances
For Expeditions, Incursions and Mastery, Orc Chieftains first appear in Chaos 10 and later in Chaos 11.
Miniboss Variant - Orc Warlord
Sporting a bright pink version of the regular Chieftains' weapon, the Orc Warlord is larger and healthier, but remains slow. Due to its even larger health pool, its best to prioritize this Miniboss over others, as it can remain on the map for a longer period of time.
Trivia and Notes
The Orc Chieftains' buff can restore the health on Minibosses and other enemies in the same lane as it.
