Enforcer

This article or section is a stub. Please help the Doom Wiki by adding to it.

Enforcers are special versions of monsters which occur in Doom: The Dark Ages that enhance a selection of demons around them while themselves utilizing their base stats. They operate similarly to buff totems in Doom Eternal.

Enforcers glow blue and have a triangular blue flag above them. If the enforcer is a pinky rider, mancubus or arachnotron, it will always be the armored variant. Killing them should generally be made a priority, as the enemies they empower will continue to respawn until the enforcer is eliminated.

Enforcer encounter types

Enforcer encounters are divided into two categories.

• The encounter the player will face most often will consist of the enforcer, a selection of empowered demons, and various fodder demons (sometimes leftover from an unfinished wave in the arena). The empowered demons will continue to spawn on a timer until the enforcer is killed. The enforcer is generally able to be killed at any point during the encounter. Once the enforcer is killed the remaining empowered demons will revert to their base stats. Players should remain alert upon killing the enforcer as the end of encounter trigger is not tied to enforcers in the same way it is during champion or demonic leader encounters.
• Enforcers can also be tied to a trap or secret encounter where the player is locked in an arena while the enforcer is nearby but inaccessible. In these instances the encounter is wave based and the player will be able to leave the room to kill the enforcer once all waves are cleared.
