Strategies

  • Long-lost cousin of the Wheel Skeletons from Dark Souls, these rats will roll at you from mid range, dealing moderate, but repeated damage and also being deceptively difficult to dodge, having a fair tracking ability.
  • Bait them into close-range swipes, but don't go too close, as you can be damaged by simply standing next to them. Try using a longer weapon to dispatch them without any danger, such as a spear, halberd or greatsword.
  • Another valid tactic is to snipe them from afar, as their roll can be interrupted by a solid hit, and they do not have a tremendous amount of health.
