I think snipers are specials and not elites?

I’m afraid that Snipers are Special enemies, not Elites.

Here’s a list of all enemies currently considered Elites:

  • Ogryn Bulwark
  • Ogryn Crusher
  • Ogryn Reaper
  • Dreg Rager
  • Dreg Gunner
  • Dreg Shotgunner
  • Scab Rager
  • Scab Mauler
  • Scab Gunner
  • Scab Shotgunner

lol

Is it to much to ask to have some way to find this in game. A different color when they die, a glossary, a list on the penance, something? I’m sure I’m not the only one confused. I was going off their name showed up when you killed them. What did I miss?

Similar to Vermintide, but you had no way of knowing there either. Just to be clear. I agree with you. This should be clear. I had to figure out myself what the difference between a Scab and a Drag was.

Specials spawn in a certain frequency and number and are always aggroed, so they never appear as ambient enemies who just stand around, until you get them infight.
They also have a special sound that they make when spawning (not sure if the sniper has one).

  • Flamer and toxflamer: ticking (electrical spark for ignition)
  • Poxburster: low frequency ticking (continuous)
  • Trapper: voice line (female) + laughter
  • Bomber: voice line (male)
  • Mutant: „OOOOH“
  • Dog: howling
  • Sniper: ?

Also, in the Meatgrinder, all specials except poxburster are standing bunched up in one group, so if you ever forget, what counts as special, there they are.

No spawn sound that I’m aware of, but they jingle when they walk around.
