Check back for updates, videos and <strong>com</strong>ments for this <strong>guide</strong>.<br />

Mauler: Carries a flail and a Boom Shield. When the flail <strong>com</strong>es down, it will incapacitate any character within a<br />

certain radius. Maulers use their Boom Shields to ward <strong>of</strong>f gunfire, so take aim and fire at any visible portion.<br />

Butcher: A large Locust that carries a cleaver. These guys move very slowly and don't inflict much damage, so<br />

dealing with one is not much <strong>of</strong> a problem.<br />

KANTUS<br />

A tall, lanky Locust that throws Ink Grenades and carries a Gorgon Pistol. They are quite adept at dodging gunfire<br />

and have a large amount <strong>of</strong> health, making them difficult to take down.<br />

THERON<br />

An upgraded version <strong>of</strong> the Drone. They usually use Torque Bows so be very careful if there are any Theron around.<br />

If you notice that one is aiming a Torque Bow in your direction, get behind a piece <strong>of</strong> cover and wait until the<br />

Theron is forced to release the bolt.<br />

PALACE GUARD<br />

The toughest variant <strong>of</strong> Drone. They can wield a variety <strong>of</strong> weapons including the Gnasher, Torque Bow, and<br />

Hammerburst.<br />

REAVER<br />

You'll remember these guys if you played through the first <strong>Gears</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>War</strong>. Reavers are more <strong>com</strong>monplace this time<br />

around, however, and now have the ability to ground themselves on the battlefield. Reavers require a great deal <strong>of</strong><br />

gunfire to bring down, and can deal a considerable amount <strong>of</strong> ranged and melee damage. Most Reavers are<br />

controlled by a handler and may also carry a gunner.<br />

BLOODMOUNT<br />

Quick, two-legged creatures that are used as mounts by some Grenadiers. Bloodmounts are quite dangerous<br />

up-close, as they can deal a considerable amount <strong>of</strong> melee damage. Furthermore, its handler can <strong>of</strong>ten still hit you<br />

while you're behind low cover due to his elevated position atop the Bloodmount. Hitting the Bloodmount with rapid<br />

gunfire will cause it to teeter, both stopping it in its tracks and possibly knocking the rider to the ground. You must<br />

kill both the rider and Bloodmount separately.<br />
