Infected Worker

From Dead Cells Wiki
Jump to navigation Jump to search

Infected Workers are enemies added in v2.0, the Barrels o' Fun Update. They are unique to the Derelict Distillery. They are big hulking humanoid enemies carrying a scaffold with barrels.

Behavior[edit]

When the Infected Worker detects the player at a distance, they will throw a barrel at them. If the player is too close, they will lay down a barrel and jump back.

Moveset[edit]

Barrel throw
  • Description: Tosses an explosive bouncing barrel overhead.
  • Barrel can be blocked, parried, and dodge rolled.
    • The explosion can be blocked or parried, but not dodge rolled.
  • Hitting the barrel will knock it back and deal damage to enemies while preventing self-damage.

Drop barrel
  • Description: Lays an explosive barrel in front of them, then quickly jumps back. The barrel will explode after a delay.
  • Barrel explosion can be blocked or parried, but not dodge rolled.
  • Hitting the barrel will knock it back and deal damage to enemies while preventing self-damage.
  • Despite seeming like an "overhead" vertical attack, this move can be parried. However, it will still leave an enemy barrel on the ground as a follow-up, so after a successful parry the player must still either attack the barrel, or get out of the explosion range.

Strategy[edit]

  • Thrown barrels can easily be dodged by rolling under them. They can also be re-reflected by hitting the barrels back at them.
  • The second attack has a long animation giving you plenty of time to get out of explosion radius.

Notes[edit]

  • The barrels they throw can destroy damaged walls. This can be used to obtain one of the achievements related to the Derelict Distillery.

History[edit]

  • 2.0: Introduced.
