Mongrel

The Mongrel is a Pillager/Animal enemy found in Darkest Dungeon II encountered in all regions except The Sluice and The Mountain and only in road fights.

Description
Vicious attack dogs with both offensive and defensive abilities, these canines serve their unscrupulous masters with impressive loyalty. Do not underestimate them.

Combat
The Mongrel serves as a guard dog for it's team. It attacks trough biting, both offensively and defensively in retaliation.

Strategy
The Mongrel is the support of the Pillagers but will not hesitate to bite whenever it can. Its base damage isn't very high, but its much higher CRIT can be detrimental for the part. The use of Blind can be very useful to counter the  Riposte, or the use of Man-at-Arms's Bellow.
