Blazing Enemies

Some enemies can enter a stronger Blazing State after absorbing enough loose souls, gaining more damage and special abilities.

Do not donate the battlefield's souls

Some strong enemies can spend health or absorb loose souls to become even more dangerous. After enough soul absorption, a Blazing enemy deals more damage and gains special abilities.

Absorb loose souls before the enemy can take them. Defeating weaker enemies may fill the area with souls, so pull them in during the fight instead of waiting for the battlefield to clear.
