Gnoll Burner

Gnoll Burners are gnolls wielding torches that they throw at soldiers. They are the second enemy encountered in Kingdom Rush: Origins and the player's introduction to ranged attacks.
== Overview ==
"Malicious beasts that delight in setting forests and creatures on fire."
Gnoll Burners pose a threat in early levels, as their attacks burn your troops, dealing True Damage over 2 seconds. However, their damage is not impressive compared to that of the Twilight Harasser and Gnoll Blighter, and their low HP and lack of resistances make them easy targets for your towers.
In Impossible difficulty, Gnoll Burners gain a substantial amount of melee damage, giving them more of an edge over your unupgraded soldiers and reinforcements.
In the Hulking Rage mini-campaign, they can be crystallized by Bloodsydian crystals or Blood Ogres into the faster, more powerful Blood Gnolls.
In two levels, Redwood Stand and Galadrian's Wall, Gnoll Burners are seen torching forests, burning them down to open new paths, even destroying a Bastion and an archer garrison in the latter level.
Gnoll Burners do not use their ranged attack on Vez'nan's Demon, as the demon is made of fire and immune to burning. 
== Strategy ==
Ranged enemies such as the Gnoll Burner are less dangerous in Origins than they are in the past games because soldiers and reinforcements now have a ranged attack, but are still powerful in groups. Regardless, an advanced player shall wise to leave Hunters, Mystics, and Circles to deal with them lest they clear the way for frailer enemies.
