Lesser Wisp

Not to be confused with the enemy from the first game, the Wisp. The Lesser Wisp is a returning enemy in Risk of Rain 2.

Behavior
The Lesser Wisps are a common sight during the first levels, and may spawn in massive numbers later on. Their attack pattern consists of slowly flying towards the player and firing a medium-range fireblast at them. This attack has a visible aimline and an audible charge-up.

Due to their lightness, knockback can send them flying across the map. That is, if the attack does not kill them outright, given their low hp. Since they appear in tight flocks, jumping electric attacks or on-kill effects can be devastating against them.
