“

The Weredragons infest the darkest lairs of the Order. Possessing all of the strength and agility of a tank, these lumbering creatures belch a body-blasting fireball.

The Weredragon is an enemy encountered in Heretic. As one of the most powerful non-boss enemies in the game, they appear only in the later episodes.

Attacks & Strategy

Weredragons are best fought in open spaces, since the sheer speed of their attacks makes them almost impossible to dodge when fighting at close range, and their heavy durability ensures a drawn-out fight. In an open space, the player can take them down in a relatively leisurely fashion by circle strafing from a safe distance. If an encounter with a weredragon in close quarters is unavoidable, as it often is, the Ethereal Crossbow and the Hellstaff are the best choice due to their high rates of stuns per second, which is crucial to avoid taking excessive damage from the weredragon's fast and powerful attacks. A Tome of Power is very useful in such situations.

Notes & Trivia

• The game manual lists this enemy as having a ghost form, but such is not the case. It's possible that the developers were planning on adding it originally, but dropped it.
