How to beat Nurse Harrow
A battlefield medic who heals with her gun, starves enemy buffs with leeches and terrifies anyone who looks her in the eye.
- 01Turn your back to Lurking Terrors: facing away halves its damage and stops the terror building.
- 02Burst the Wretched Vapors target after the rush ends; the delayed damage lands all at once unless she heals it.
- 03Pressure Harrow while Healing Needles is loaded; her clip is healing allies, not shooting you.
