Labyrinth Madman (Corpse) ❘ 守り人の狂人

Strong Enemy

Description

  • Labyrinth Madmen are extremely fast and aggressive enemies that come sprinting towards you while flailing attacks as soon as they spot you. They have excellent vision and can spot you from a considerable distance away, so it's important to listen out for the shrill scream they make as they run because they can cover that distance very quickly. Twin sickle-wielding madmen can inflict a tremendous amount of damage and their rapid attacks give you only brief openings in which to hit them. This threat is compounded by the fact that they are not easily flinched, even with heavy weapons, so you'll only ever get the chance to hit them once or twice before having to back off.
  • Single sickle Madmen are slightly less aggressive than those with two, and they tend not to run around as much once they're close to you. The key differences, however, are their lower amount of super armor, which means they're much easier to deal with once you start attacking them, and the fact that they'll occasionally decide to walk around slowly without attacking, allowing you to regain stamina or heal. Unlike other enemies, it's also recommended that you do not to try and stay behind them while attacking because many of their attacks reach far behind them. In a macabre display, the final type of Madman carries a rotting corpse in both hands which is used as a surprisingly effective weapon. Each attack from these enemies emits a small cloud of toxic fumes that cause large amounts of rapid poison buildup, making them incredibly dangerous.

Strategy

  • Take advantage of their elemental weaknesses and apply a Fire or Bolt Paper to your weapon from a safe distance before moving in. Poisoning is easiest way to deal with them since it will only take two Poison Knives to inflict the status, and they will be almost stationary during their attacks. For fighting them with melee weapons, quickstep backward out of their attacks and hit them once or twice during their recoveries the same as you would the other madmen. If they use their Overhead Slam Combo you can quickstep through the first swing and position yourself behind for a charged attack, but avoid quickstepping through their other attacks because their heavy overhead tracking and wide sweeps will generally catch you.

Notes

  • Preset Chalice Dungeons: Lower Hintertomb, Ailing Loran, Lower Loran
  • All enemies and bosses (except hunter enemies) have 999 frenzy resistance, despite that they are still vulnerable to such status. The only way to see it without modding is to use Shaman Bone Blade on enemy inflicting frenzy to attack others. [test video]
  • The Labyrinth Madmen, drop some of the best gems in the game. For more information go to this Drop List page.
  • When additional rite Fetid Offering is applied to the Chalice Dungeon, Watchers will have their stats boosted and appear with a smoky red visual effect to signify their upgrade. They reward you with more Blood Echoes and it increases the amount of items that will drop from them.
  • Fixed rally aura can appear on certain enemies exclusively in Loran dungeons. Despite their similarities, this aura is not related to Fetid rite. Enemies with such aura (red) will have Rally Effect and can regain health as you do. This aura appears around labyrinth madmen, male beast patients and scourge beasts. Enemies with rally aura recover 20% of their HP per hit. Besides rally ability, these enemies have only 70% of their normal HP and always drop cursed gems. Rally aura scourge beast can also drop Beast Blood Pellets (5% drop rate at base Discovery).
  • Labyrinth Madman (Corpse) is tied to the Bloodlickers spawn effect in Chalice Dungeons. Therefore after executing visceral attack and killing this enemy, then heading off to other parts of the layer, there's a possibility that when you return to the room you visceral attacked it in a Bloodlicker will appear to feed on the blood. More information about this effect can be found on the Traps & Hazards wiki page.

Pungent Blood Cocktails attract this enemy, making it vulnerable for few seconds.
Shaman Bone Blades affect this enemy, making it hostile to other enemies.

Attack Patterns

Key Attack Interrupt Notes
Overhead Slam Combo Yes Slams the corpse ahead letting out poison fumes, then hits again as it is swung back for another overhead slam; quickstep through and past them during the first swing.
Running Overhead Swing Yes Quickstep forward past this while they are running.
Toxic Swing Yes Low reaching swing which emits a large cloud of poison fumes. Quickstep backward.

Ritual Materials: Drop Pools

  • For the most part, items dropped by enemies are decided simply by a random per cent chance from that enemy's own list of potential items. When an enemy appears in a dungeon, it sometimes has one or more of its drops determined by the dungeon's Depth, in order to give better rewards for more challenging dungeons. Such items are selected from a pool of similar items, and these pools are shown here. The upshot of this is that an enemy might drop a Tomb Mold (1) in the Depth 1 Pthumerian Root Labyrinth, but would drop a Tomb Mold (5) instead in a Depth 5 Isz Gravestone dungeon.

Base Level: Blood Echoes, HP, Damage and Def. Multipliers

  • For enemies that also appear (or exclusively appear) in dungeons, their stats will be shown at the base level, because their exact stats at any given point are calculated from these base values. The basic formula is: Total Value = Base x A x B x C x D. Multipliers written down below were datamined directly from the game files. Multiplier A represents depth (1 - 5) of the chalice dungeon; multiplier B is layer (1 - 4) of the specific chalice dungeon; multiplier C is used when dungeon is Pthumeru Ihyll; multiplier D is for calculating blood echoes when additional curse rite is used.
