Moroaică

The head (×2.4, but ×4.0 from sniper rifles) and the body (×2.0). Game8 recommends explosives to drop groups, but in the game data they only do ×0.67: use them to knock Moroaică down, not to kill them.

Slow, clumsy hags (faster on higher difficulties) with claws, bites, swords, sickles and axes. They nearly always come in groups: don't get cornered. Some play dead on the floor or crawl out of wall holes or pools of blood. Running past is often best.

• Block or stun them before a sword thrust.
• When one staggers back and snarls, she is open to a few knife slashes.
• Shoot the weapon arm and she drops it (Butter Fingers, 1,500 CP).
• Set one on fire (Medium Rare, 3,500 CP): there are burning Moroaică in the Riverbank Treasure House. A burning Moroaică loses 50-60 HP per second, but the fire stops at 1 HP: finish her yourself.
• Lady Dimitrescu slaps them aside or kills them if they get in her way.

Lei, Rusted Scrap, Chem Fluid, Gunpowder and sometimes a Crystal Skull (900). Never ammo or healing. One in the Chamber of Solace drops Ingrid's Necklace.

930 HP for most; 1,400 for the first (Chamber of Solace) and 1,500 for the burning one before Bela. At Standard's starting rank, one un-upgraded F2 Rifle head shot (1,200) kills her, and the M1897 needs 2 shells to the head (672 each). Village of Shadows puts more in the castle (11 in the Courtyard instead of 7, and 2 more after the Merchant's Room) and adds 2 to the Bela Dimitrescu fight.
