Ordered By:
   Archvile (needs to be ported to the wiki!)
      Archvile
Attack Damage : 12 claw; 20 fire
Best Killed With : Plasma Rifle, Rocket Launcher, BFG 9000
Health : 425
These guys are one of the game's toughest enemies. They will summon weaker enemies until they themselves are dead. If you have the Soulcube ready, definitely use it on these guys. Other good weapons to use against them would be the rocket launcher or the BFG-9000. Be sure to take out the Archvile itself, don't concentrate on the minions it summons.
  
   Bruiser (needs to be ported to the wiki!)
   Bruiser
Attack Damage : 16 melee; 20 rocket; 20 rocket splash damage
Best Killed With : The Artifact, Rocket Launcher, BFG 9000
Health : 825
The Bruiser is one of the toughest monsters in the game. He has the speed of a Mancubus' fireball attack, only faster, and has the strength and life of a Hell Knight. This is a Bruiser. If you don't use The Artifact in a fight with the Bruiser, you're screwed, especially if you're on a higher difficulty level. It is near impossible to dodge his fireball attacks unless you take cover or slow down time using the Artifact. First, take out your Artifact and slow down time. Next, pull out the BFG 9000 and release the charge on him. He will die in one hit, and you won't have to play "Cat and Mouse" with him. If the BFG 9000 is out of the picture, use the Rocket Launcher. It takes 5 rockets to put him down if you're lucky, but sometimes it can take upwards to 7. Be sure to come well equipped for this fight with a good supply of armor and health, just in case.
  
   Cacodemon (needs to be ported to the wiki!)
        Cacodemon
Attack Damage : 20 bite; 12 fireball; 5 fireball splash; 48 fireball splash radius; 20 melee
Best Killed With : Double Barreled Shotgun, Machine Gun, Chaingun
Health : 200
When you see the Cacodemon, think of the monster as a giant, floating beach ball. Because of the fact that he floats and is lightweight, you can knock him around all over the place with weapon fire. This gives you the advantage when dealing with him. If you manage to get close to him, he will die in one shot with the Double Barreled Shotgun. Use this to your advantage, but watch out so that he doesn't bite you when he's up close.
  
  Chainsaw Zombie (needs to be ported to the wiki!)
Chainsaw Zombie
Attack Damage : 20 per second
Best Killed With : Double Barreled Shotgun, Machine Gun, Grenade
Health : 250
They used to be on the staff at the UAC labs. They will likely be seen toting chainsaws and wearing work overalls.
  
   Cherub (needs to be ported to the wiki!)
          Cherub
Attack Damage : 5 claw; 12 leap attack
Best Killed With : Grabber, Machine Gun, Shotgun
Health : 50
Cherubs love to leap towards you and begin clawing at you. Not only is their leap attack their most deadly attack, but when you have several, it can get nasty. Your best bet is to keep your distance from all Cherubs in sight, while unloading on them with the Machine Gun. If you get cornered by a Cherub, pull out your Shotgun, take aim, and fire. With luck you will kill it once and for all. Because of how small they are, you can also fling them against the wall or into lava, killing them instantly.
  
  Commando Zombie/Commando Zombie With Chaingun (needs to be ported to the wiki!)
Commando Zombie/Commando Zombie With Chaingun
Attack Damage : 12/3 per round Chaingun; 12 Tentacle
Best Killed With : Double Barreled Shotgun, Machine Gun, Grenade
Health : 170/225
The Zombie Commandos without the Chaingun attempt to run up to you and start whipping you around with their tentacle on their mutated arm. Due to this, if you are quick enough, one single Double Barreled Shotgun shell will put them down for the count. The Chaingunners take more strategy, because all they do is crouch and just continuously fire off Chaingun rounds. If there's anything to hide behind, use it. Now, you can either charge up to them and unload a Double Barreled Shotgun round into them and kill them in one shot, peek out and shoot them in the head with the Machine Gun, or toss them a Grenade to play with. The first method is probably the one method that will cost you some health. The second method takes a little longer than the rest of the methods. The last method is probably the easiest, since you take them out fast and will lose very little health. I'd go with the third method, but use the one you feel comfortable with.
  
  Fat Zombie (needs to be ported to the wiki!)
Fat Zombie
Attack Damage : 15 Swipe; 20 wrench
Best Killed With : Pistol, Shotgun, Machine Gun
Health : 100
These guys are not any better than the Generic Zombies (scroll down). Since they're fat, they need a bit more hurting, but not too much. Use the same tactics listed under Generic Zombie below and you should be fine.
  
   Flaming Zombie (needs to be ported to the wiki!)
Attack Damage :
Best Killed With : Shotgun, Machine Gun
Health :
This is basically a Zombie that's on fire. Flaming Zombies make a different grunt than the other Zombies, and also attempt to kamikaze attack you. Since they move so fast and have a higher hit point range, it would be best to use a Shotgun or Machine Gun to kill them. Don't be afraid to backpedal, these guys do run pretty fast.
  
   Generic Zombie (needs to be ported to the wiki!)
                      Generic Zombie
Attack Damage :
Best Killed With : Pistol, Shotgun, Machine Gun
Health :
These guys won't even touch you if you don't walk near them. Since they move so slow, this gives you the opportunity to land a headshot on these guys easily. You can kill these guys fairly easily with any weapon. If you only see one Zombie, use the Pistol instead of wasting ammo on the bigger weapons. If you are surrounded by more than one, get a better weapon out, like the Shotgun and Machine Gun, and just start filling them with lead. These guys love to lurk in dark places, so have your Flashlight out whenever you see a dark area. A Zombie may be near. Also, listen for the grunts a Zombie makes when he is nearby.
  
   Hell Knight (needs to be ported to the wiki!)
Attack Damage :
Best Killed With : The Artifact, Plasma Rifle, Rocket Launcher, BFG 9000
Health :
One of the toughest monsters in the game. The Hell Knight can throw you across the room with ease, throw fireballs that do a lot of damage, and can take a lot of ammo to the chest and still be happy for more. The BFG 9000 will kill him in one hit, thank God. If you don't have access to the BFG 9000, take out your Artifact to slow down time. Now, take out either the Plasma Rifle or Rocket Launcher, and just start to unload on him. He takes a lot to kill, considering he has around 900 life. 5 rockets will do the job nicely, but if you are out of rockets, take out the Plasma Rifle and unload on him. He will die eventually, but just be careful with the Plasma Rifle as the plasma balls may conceal his fireball attack.
  
   Imps (needs to be ported to the wiki!)
             Imps
Attack Damage :
Best Killed With : Shotgun
Health :
Imps aren't very common in Resurrection of Evil anymore, thanks to the Vulgar. If you do manage to see these guys, they haven't changed much. One perfectly aimed Shotgun blast will put one to rest. Imps also have that nasty tendency to crouch and be prepared to leap attack you. Due to this, if your reaction are up to par, you can shoot them in the head while their airborne. If you don't feel confident about this, simply dodge out of the way and shoot them to death then.
  
   Lost Souls (needs to be ported to the wiki!)
              Lost Souls
Attack Damage :
Best Killed With : Pistol, Machine Gun
Health :
Lost Souls are more annoying than damaging. They charge at you at a high speed, but they have one drawback to them: They will always fly in a straight line towards you. Due to this, you can kill them with 2 Pistol shots before they even have impact on you. If there is more than one Lost Soul on the screen at a time, take out the Machine Gun.
  
   Mancubus (needs to be ported to the wiki!)
     Mancubus
Attack Damage :
Best Killed With : The Artifact, Chaingun, Rocket Launcher, BFG 9000
Health :
Mancubi have the highest hit point count than any other monster in the game. This monster also has one of the most damaging attack in the game. He will pump out fireballs like no one's business. His drawbacks are that he's so slow and that hes a nice, wide target, which makes it easier to hit him. As with any monster, if you don't want to deal with him (Who doesn't?), he dies in one hit by the BFG 9000, 5 rockets from the Rocket Launcher, and about a clip each from the Chaingun and Plasma Rifle. If you are using the Chaingun, what you want to do is use the Artifact and slow down time. Once time is slowed down, run up to him and pump his head full of Chaingun rounds. He will die rather easily that way, and it'll be much easier to avoid his fireballs. If you are using the Rocket Launcher, take cover whenever possible and unload 5 rockets into him. He will be down for the count.
  
   Pinky (needs to be ported to the wiki!)
         Pinky
Attack Damage :
Best Killed With : Double Barreled Shotgun, Machine Gun
Health :
When you hear the sound of mechanical legs roaming the hall, that's your clue that a Pinky is near. Also known as a Demon in the other Doom games, Pinkys love to run up to you and take a big chomp out of you. To prevent this, you can kill them with one Double Barreled Shotgun blast to the face when they are near you. If you don't feel confident about this, then what you can do is get up somewhere high and pelt him with Machine Gun rounds. Because the Pinky is so short, he won't be able to reach you. Cruel, isn't it? There are only a few of these in the game, so you shouldn't have any problems with these guys.
  
   Revenant (needs to be ported to the wiki!)
       Revenant
Attack Damage :
Best Killed With : Plasma Gun, Double Barreled Shotgun
Health :
They are quite versatile but its primary method of attack is to fire guided missiles at you. You can shoot them down and dodge the rockets with ease if you're far away enough. If you get too close, they will slash you which can be more deadly than the rockets. The plasma gun is the best weapon against them as it will also shoot the rockets down.
  
   Tick (needs to be ported to the wiki!)
               Tick
Attack Damage :
Best Killed With : Pistol, Machine Gun
Health :
They only take two Pistol bullets to die, but they can cause so much problems. When these things die, they release a suicide explosion. If you're unlucky to even be by these guys when they explode, they will take 50 health points off. These guys are really easy to spot and can be picked off before they even get to you. Try not to let them get close to you. If they do, move away fast.
  
   Trite (needs to be ported to the wiki!)
                Trite
Attack Damage :
Best Killed With : Pistol, Machine Gun
Health :
Trites are perhaps the weakest monsters in the game. They only take 2 Pistol bullets to kill, and they don't do much for damage, unless they are in large groups and swarming you. If that's the case, pull out the Machine Gun. You should be able to pick these guys off before they can even get to you. Just watch out when you're reloading. Reload in a safe place, away from the packs of Trites. You don't want these guys swarming you when you're in the middle of reloading. Trites also have a nasty tendency to leap and you and bite you. Watch out for this.
  
   Vulgar (needs to be ported to the wiki!)
Attack Damage :
Best Killed With : Grabber, Shotgun, Double Barreled Shotgun, Grenade
Health :
This is the monster that takes over the Imp's spotlight. You will know one of these guys has respawned because they emit a high-pitched scream before starting their attack. Vulgars take more punishment than their friends, the Imps. You can sometimes get lucky to kill them in one Shotgun Shell, but mostly it will take two. Use the Double Barreled Shotgun for best results. You can also use the Grenade to kill them in one blast. This is one of the most efficient ways. Another fun thing to do is use the Grabber and catch their fireball in mid-air and send it back to them. This will kill them in one hit, but requires more skill.
  
   Wraith (needs to be ported to the wiki!)
           Wraith
Attack Damage :
Best Killed With : Shotgun, Double Barreled Shotgun
Health :
These guys are very similar to Imps except they teleport to you and slash you. They will rapidly teleport from spot to spot until they get Wraiths love to get in your face and slash away. When you see a Wraith and he seems fairly close, pull out your Shotgun. 9 times out of 10 he will attempt a leap attack and then start slashing. If you are skillful with the Shotgun, you can kill him in one hit to the head. Otherwise, plug him full of holes with the Double Barreled Shotgun. Explosives are not recommended as these guys love to leap on you, so it won't be easy to hit them. You can wait for them to teleport in front of you and quickly shotgun blast them to take care of them good.
  
   Z-Sector Zombies (needs to be ported to the wiki!)
                  Z-Sector Zombies
Attack Damage :
Best Killed With : Shotgun, Machine Gun, Grenade
Health :
These guys come in 3 flavors: Pistol Z-Sec, Shotgun Z-Sec, and Machine Gun Z-Sec. the Pistol one won't give you any trouble since his bullets are weak, but the Shotgun and Machine Gun Z-Sec Zombies will give you a little harder time. Z-Sec Zombies love to hide behind crates when they fire off a few rounds. In other words, they use the "Duck and Cover" technique. You can easily get around this and flip a Grenade behind whatever they're hiding behind, and blow them up. You could also beat them to their own game. Hide behind crates also, while coming up and firing off a few shots at them, hopefully capping one of them good. If you prefer not to do it this way, what you could do is run up to them kamikaze style, and put a Shotgun Round through their head. There's one last thing to remember. Since Z-Sec Zombies have all the armor on them and that they have a helmet, they are immune to headshots.
  
   Zombie (Bio) (needs to be ported to the wiki!)
Attack Damage :
Best Killed With : Shotgun, Machine Gun
Health :
Another new monster for the expansion, this zombie is the one you seen in the screenshots on various websites. He's no different to kill than the Generic Zombies, so don't sweat it. Once you kill these guys, they drop a Bio Suit Oxygen Tank for when you are down in the toxic waste. Be sure to kill these guys when you see them.
