Skinned

Skinned is one of Mewgenics' most visually disturbing enemies: a grotesque 30 HP cat with no skin, exposing raw musculature and nerve endings. Its massive health pool makes it one of the tankiest cat-type enemies in the game, capable of absorbing sustained punishment while continuing to dish out tremendous damage.

The Skinned's flayed form is not just cosmetic: its exposed musculature gives it raw physical power that translates into devastating melee attacks. Its high HP pool means it can trade blows with most party compositions and come out ahead, tanking hits while its attacks whittle down your cats. In encounters with other enemies, the Skinned often serves as the frontline tank that soaks up damage while more dangerous enemies operate behind it.

With 30 HP, the Skinned requires concentrated focus fire to bring down. In mixed encounters, decide whether to focus the Skinned to remove its damage-soaking presence, or deal with more dangerous support enemies first while managing the Skinned's aggression with displacement and crowd control. Poison, Bleed, and other damage-over-time effects are efficient against high-HP targets like the Skinned, as they bypass the need for raw burst damage.
