Recognize it and read the attack
A dark horned skeleton with a visible face.
Wanders, then pauses to direct a stream of flames at Isaac. The flames have limited reach and are blocked by obstacles.
What makes it dangerous
A familiar skeleton shape does not mean it fires a single bone.
A suggested response
- Move sideways as it pauses to aim.
- Use distance or a solid obstacle when the room leaves a clear retreat.
Check the other enemies before committing to this response. Obstacles, your weapon and your character can change the safest angle.
The mistake to avoid
Waiting for one bone while a stream of fire occupies the nearby space.
Read the firing direction before crossing its lane.
