Field Notes

Field Notes:  Quick with his sword and quicker with his feet; the agility of these clay 'people' is unexpected with a form so roughly shaped.

When faced with one of the few creatures here which I feel some humanity in, my aloneness closes in. Why do they have clay pots on their heads? Could it be protection from this cruel reality, or maybe just to hide the scars from this brutal planet.

Tactics

Clay men are extremely mobile and deal a considerable amount of damage. Characters that can kite them without getting hit, such as the Huntress or Acrid have a considerable advantage against Clay Men.

Notice

Clay men will frequently perform a combat roll maneuver, similar to the Commando's while giving chase to the player or under fire. This move helps them to close gaps more quickly as well as allowing them to maneuver behind players to land melee attacks without retaliation. This is especially dangerous to characters such as the Enforcer or HAN-D.
