Description

The Pistol Goon, also referred to as Pistol Crook, is a unit that can be spawned from the Crook Boss from Level 0. Like most other units, it starts from one of the entrances of the map and moves towards the exit.

Whenever there is an enemy in its range, it will stop moving to attack it and all other detectable enemies in its range. It will continue walking if there are no enemies in its range for a few seconds. It has a 50 second spawnrate. It also spawns twice instead of once at Level 2+.

There is a limit of 10 Pistol Goons per Crook Boss.

Appearance

The Pistol Goon has tan skin. It wears a grey shirt, black shoes and vest with golden buttons, brown pants with a black belt and golden buckle, blue belt, white wrapping on left hand and grey opaque/translucent shades. The Pistol Goon wields an M1911 to attack enemies.

Strategy

• As it spawns from the Level 0 Crook Boss, the Pistol Goon can be useful early on against weaker enemies like the Abnormal or Heavy.
  • While the Crook Boss itself does not have hidden or flying detection until Level 2, the Pistol Goon has it from Level 0, making it useful against hidden and flying enemies that appear early on.
• The Pistol Goon deals full collision damage to enemies with defense, such as the Hefty or Heavy.
  • As it has low damage, it is also unlikely that its damage will be reduced as an enemy needs at least 100% defense to reduce it.
• On maps with multiple paths, only one/two Pistol Goons spawn per Crook Boss.
  • Each Pistol Goon will go down a random path.
• The Pistol Goon is unaffected by buffs and debuffs.
• The Pistol Goon will struggle against enemies with abilities that deal damage to units because of its low health.
  • For example, the Warden will quickly kill the Pistol Goon if its caught in its laser.

Trivia

• This is the third unit alongside the Golden Pistol Goon to spawn twice at a time, the first being the Cannoneer Elf and Gunner Elf.
• The Pistol Goon, alongside Golden Pistol Goon, was the first unit to be able to detect flying enemies.
  • While the Gift Bomber can collide with some flying enemies, it cannot target them.
