Pelagic Grouper

The Pelagic Grouper is an Eldritch type that appears in the Cove. It focuses on dealing damage, but it has very low resistances. The only exception to this is bleed which it has a high resistance to, like most other monster in the Cove.

Behaviour

 * Most of the enemies in the Cove use trickery to kill the heroes they meet such as stunning, disease and stress. The Pelagic Grouper is one of only two monsters concerned with dealing damage, and they both do it well. In the Grouper's case the position they are in will determine their attacks, either dealing damage to your front ranks with their cutlass or your back ranks with their harpoon.


 * If they are in the first two positions, they will attack your front row with Seaward Slash which deals considerable damage. And if they are in the last two positions, they will attack your back row with Spearfishing. It does less damage, but it will still be fairly high and in veteran and champion levels it can pull the hero 1 rank forward. It's important to be mindful of where these enemies are, and try to kill or pull any in the back row if you want to keep your formation in place.
