Pure Titans

### Overview

Titans are creatures closely resembling human beings, but with various deformities, ranging from either over/under-sized heads and limbs, massively fat stomachs, or even skeletal frames. Titans come from Eldian's being injected with Titan Spinal Fluid, with the titans on the island being the punished restorationist of Marley

Within the game titans serve as the primary opposing force against the players, and can be killed via a strike on the nape. When killed players receive 50 GP and every 2 titan kills a player receives a skill point which can be used in Upgrades.

Titans currently spawn within every stage, excluding the tutorial.

the titans are split into 2 categories:

* **Mindless**
* **Abnormals**

### Mindless

The mindless is the most basic type of titan. Even though they don't have any special characteristics, it is hard to kill them or any titans without blinding them, or cutting both of their legs first. Mindless can stomp on you for 20 Damage when you stand under them.

Mindless usually try to grab you mid-air when trying to maneuver around them, or attempt to grab you while on the ground.

When sitting on the face of a mindless they open their mouth and you are trapped inside. If you stay too long on its nape it will reach behind it's nape to grab you.

When grabbed mindless place you in their mouth where you take 50 damage every few seconds, with your only chance of escape being from using Handcut while grabbed or a player cutting the titans nape.

These are the most common but easiest to kill, however if you are new to the game it is recommended to combat titans with a partner incase someone is grabbed or to assist each other through blinding and leg cuts.

### Abnormals

The technical definition is titans that show signs of intelligence or act in unpredictable ways. These are categorized in-game by their specific behavior, a unique method of fighting, and increased speed.

##### **Crawler Titans**

A titan that walks on all four limbs it is considered by the community one of the most dangerous titans especially within campaign stage 1. While technically the crawler is not an abnormal titan this is one of the two hardest to kill with its insane speed and mouth-grab range, along with increased eating speed, allowing it to kill several soldiers within a short amount of time. With a speed of 35, it is able to outrun horses and easily grab and devour you with the strategy of slashing its legs nigh impossible. It is advised to either avoid it or use a high object of some type, or some type of skill, to get above it and slash the nape. A good way to combat a crawler is to blind it and then face up while using Impulse or face down while using the dodge skill to get high into the air in order to slash it's nape.

##### **Diver Titans:**

These titans hold their hands and face upwards into the sky, making blinding hard and unnecessary. They also do a belly flop/dive onto humans whenever given the opportunity instead of trying to grab and eat them actively. The belly flop does 100 damage if you touch it during this animation and has an AoE stun in a radius around it when it lands. The recommended method of killing these titans is to blind them, but be careful as they can mouth grab you, so aim at the forehead of the titan to avoid this.

##### **Stomper Titans:**

These titans hold their hands to the side, making orbiting to kill for them extremely difficult. They have a swift and constant stomp attack if you are in the radius of it, which will stun and does 20 dmg. It is hard to escape this if you get stuck in it under the titan, but as long as you keep moving, you shouldn't get stun-locked. If you do, you can spam hooks/use dodge/impulse to get out of it. The only non-difficult way to kill them is to blind them first; unlike other titans, they won't move forward when stompers are blinded.

##### **Baby Titans / Aberrant Titans:**

These are 2-3m titans that will dive on top of you, similar to a diver, but instead of attempting to damage you, they will grab you. They only have a brief period where they remain blinded, and they consume soldiers much quicker than mindless. It is advised to use a musket to blind the titan or a canon as it is the only titan to require one shot to be killed by it.

##### **Spinner Titans:**

These are the most dangerous kinds of titans. They will appear like a mindless titan until at a very close distance they will then run at you and “spin”, making them extremely difficult to hit. Instead of stompers stomping you, a spinner will kick you, dealing 100 damage, instantly killing anyone without health upgrades. Spinners are on par with crawlers in levels of speed as they can easily catch up to a normal speed horse. It is recommended to blind them and to not maneuver around them, leg cuts are unable to be performed on this titan.
