Weapon changes[edit]

- Cacodemons: Their attack is now to launch two projectiles in quick succession.
- Barons of Hell: Renamed to Lords of Heresy, they launch two attacks in quick succession and are smart enough to cancel an attack if the target hides.
- Lost souls: Renamed to Forgotten Ones, they now move slightly faster and will immediately attack on sight, but their health and damage are lowered.
- Arachnotrons: Their width has been shrunk down to 100 in order to allow it to squeeze into tighter spaces.
- Pain elementals: They now have a chance to immediately retaliate after their pain state and will launch an extra Forgotten One upon death.
