Slaughtaur
From DoomWiki.org
The slaughtaur is an enemy in Hexen. It is a more advanced version of the centaur, exhibiting the same appearance and behaviors but with the addition of a ranged attack: magical blue fireballs launched from the skull on its shield. In addition, the slaughtaur has 250 hit points, versus the 200 hit points of a regular centaur. They are described as follows:
Combat characteristics
When attacking at range, the slaughtaur always launches two blasts in quick succession, so long as it is not interrupted by its pain state. Note that when a slaughtaur is holding up its shield to fire, it is vulnerable to attack, even though its pose is the same as if it was in a defensive state. Slaughtaurs behave similarly to centaurs in all other respects, and may be approached with similar tactics, save that their powerful ranged attack makes approaching to melee distance a dangerous proposition.
Slaughtaurs are immune to each other's fireballs, but regular centaurs can be injured by them.
