Stealth Mook: Difference between revisions

Line 62:

* The ''[[Bloons Tower Defense]]'' series has the Camo Bloon, which first appears in ''[[Bloons Tower Defense 4]]''. In its initial appearance, it is around the same level as Black and White Bloons, and can only be actively targeted by a tower or monkey with camouflage detection - they can still be hit and popped by collateral damage from area-of-effect attacks. ''[[Bloons Tower Defense 5]]'' and ''[[Bloons Tower Defense 6|6]]'' make Camo a "trait" applicable to any non-MOAB Bloon, and Camo Bloons cannot be targeted ''or damaged'' by towers without camo detection.

* Fool Eaters from ''[[Hollow Knight]]'' are [[Man-Eating Plant|giant carnivorous plants]] that lie in wait for prey, hiding their open jaws among the heavy foliage of Greenpath. Once you step on them, you've got ''maybe'' a second to get the hell out of dodge before it bites you, and the only warning you get is a faint rustling sound.

* ~~Cipher~~ Peons from ''[[Pokémon Colosseum]]'' and its sequel aren't always visible in the overworld like most enemy trainers. When you step into their aggro radius, these stealthy ones will jump down from the ceiling and ambush you. One even ambushes you right after you use a cramped elevator, with him following you out of said elevator despite not following you in.

* Stalkers from ''[[Horizon Zero Dawn]]'' are deadly ambush predators, utilizing cloaking technology while hunting their prey. Even when you go into places that are identified as Stalker territory on your map, chances are you won't find them. ''They'll'' find ''you'', likely because you triggered one of the alarm mines they've got laying around, or bumped right into one of these invisible menaces while trying to find a patch of tall grass to hide in.

* The ''[[Assassin's Creed]]'' series naturally has its share of them.

* ~~''[[Assassin's Creed]]'': '~~'[[Assassin's Creed: Revelations]]'' and ''[[Assassin's Creed Rogue]]'' have Stalkers, mooks that blend into the civilian population and attempt to [[Back Stab]] the player character. They can be revealed with Eagle Vision.

** '[[Assassin's Creed: Revelations]]'' and ''[[Assassin's Creed Rogue]]'' have Stalkers, mooks that blend into the civilian population and attempt to [[Back Stab]] the player character. They can be revealed with Eagle Vision.

* ''[[Pokémon]]'' video games:

** ''[[Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire]]'' introduce the Ninja Boy trainer class, who conceal themselves in the overworld to ambush passing trainers.

** The cipher Peons from ''[[Pokémon Colosseum]]'' and its sequel, ''[[Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness]]'', aren't always visible in the overworld like most enemy trainers. When you step into their aggro radius, these stealthy ones will jump down from the ceiling and ambush you. One even ambushes you right after you use a cramped elevator, with him following you out of said elevator despite not following you in.

* ''[[NetHack]]'' has various monsters such as snakes, spiders, piercers, and trappers that can hide themselves from view and usually wait until you are close to strike. You can reveal them by searching manually, and warning or telepathy can usually alert you to their presence.
