Enemies in the campaign

4 kinds of enemy come down the paths here. Counts are for the whole campaign run.

What the map gives you

  • Teleport statues. When an enemy approaches the exit, both statues each push up to 4 enemies in that area back along the path, then need 35 seconds to recharge. Bosses are never pushed back.
