The Plague Eaters of the Foetor thrive on rot, utilizing the Hunger mechanic to consume corpses and heal or buff themselves. Priority targets include the Lord, who can forcibly push allies forward to be eaten, and the Lady, who serves as a back-rank healer and stress-caster. Front-line threats like the Dinner Cart and Butcher excel at inflicting Bleed and Blight, while the Maid can quickly blind your party. Low-tier enemies such as the Diseased and Carrion Eaters are dangerous in numbers, as they can inflict disease and feast on fallen comrades to grow into larger, more lethal forms.
To succeed, focus on Corpse Clearance; using skills like Magnesium Rain or Purge prevents enemies from utilizing the Hunger mechanic to regenerate health. The faction has high Blight resistance but is notably vulnerable to Bleed and Burn. Target the Lady first to stop her from regenerating the frontline, and use movement skills to pull the Lord into the front ranks where his effectiveness is diminished. Since many Plague Eaters deal heavy physical damage paired with Blight, bringing a Hero with high Blight Resistance or a dedicated cleanser is essential for survival.
