Cursed Thralls are variant of Thrall that is easily identified by its bright green glow and that its arms are wrapped around its chest.

Gameplay

Cursed Thralls act differently than their regular brethren. Instead of slashing at enemies with their claws like normal Thralls, Cursed Thralls detonate when they reach close proximity, dealing massive damage to anyone or anything nearby. Also, unlike normal Thralls, Cursed Thralls rarely rush their targets, favoring to use ambush tactics and a higher health pool to get close to enemies instead. When their health is depleted, they will explode on the spot. This can be used to a player's advantage to weaken or even kill groups of enemies with little effort, especially if there are multiple Cursed Thralls grouped together. An attentive player can also detect Cursed Thralls by their distinctive haunting screams.
