The Husk is a boss that can appear in the Catacombs.
Behavior[ | ]
Moves around the room like The Duke of Flies, but much faster and can perform the following attacks:
- Spawns 2 Attack Flies that orbit loosely around him, blocking shots, as well as a Spider.
- These flies, like the ones spawned by the Duke of Flies, can be killed if Isaac walks into them.
- The Husk will not use this attack if there is a total of 8 flies and spiders spawned, but can exceed the 8 limit if he spawns more flies and spiders when just under the limit.
- Fires a spray of projectiles, similar to Monstro, but with fewer projectiles.
- Fires blood shots in 8 directions and spreads the flies orbiting him outwards, freeing them to chase Isaac.
- Unlike the Duke, the Husk can perform this attack at any time without any required amount of orbiting Attack Flies.
- Upon death, all orbiting flies will be free to chase Isaac.
Champion Versions [ | ]
- Black: 15% larger with 56% more HP (234). He moves slower and spawns Boom Flies instead of Spiders and Attack Flies. The explosions from the Boom Flies can damage the Husk. Spawns 1-2 additional Boom Flies upon death.
- Red: 25% smaller and faster. Rather than spawning enemies, he only fires his ring of eight blood shots. Spawns 1-2 additional Red Boom Flies upon death.
