The Ashmaw

A charred husk that never stopped burning โ€” so hot its bare touch sets you ablaze. It has no ranged attack; all of its menace is up close.

The Ashmaw is a walking ember โ€” a zombie burnt so completely it smolders forever, embers pouring off its hands and jaw. It doesn't throw fire, it IS fire: it closes the gap and immolates you with its bare hands. Every hit that lands sets you alight.

Battle Plan

  • โ€บFlame-Retardant Gel hard-counters it โ€” two minutes fire-immune and its burns do nothing.
  • โ€บIt has NO ranged attack โ€” every bit of its danger is in melee, where a single swipe lights you on fire. Kite it and shoot it down from a distance.
  • โ€บNever fight it in a doorway or corridor where you can't back out of the flame.
Tip ยท Range is your armor. The Ashmaw can't reach you from afar โ€” keep moving, hit it from distance, and pop Flame-Retardant Gel before any unavoidable melee.
