Alright, let's dive into the first batch of enemies you'll encounter in Bloodstained: The Scarlet Engagement. Knowing what you're up against is half the battle, so let's break down enemies #1 through #25.

Morte (#1)

	Normal	Hard/Nightmare
Level	2	4
HP	11	24
XP	1	1
Item Drops	Resist
-	Slash: 0	Strike: 0	Thrust: 0
-	Fire: -25	Ice: 0	Thunder: 0
-	Light: -50	Dark: 0	Poison: 100
-	Curse: 100	Stone: 50
Shard	Location
-	Galleon Minerva, Arvantville, Entrance

Mortes are basically just moving obstacles. They're slow, don't attack, and eventually just disappear. Honestly, they're not worth fighting unless you absolutely need the XP to level up, which is unlikely given how many you'd need to defeat. You can find them early in Galleon Minerva, Arvantville, and the Entrance.

Seama (#2)

	Normal	Hard/Nightmare
Level	3	5
HP	16	27
XP	3	5
Item Drops	Resist
Writhing Limb	12.00%	Fire: 0	Ice: 25	Thunder: -50
Halite	5.00%	Light: 0	Dark: 0	Poison: 0
		Curse: 0	Stone: 50
Shard	Location
Cerulean Splash	3.00%	Galleon Minerva

Seamas are a bit more active. They can jump and stab with their tentacles, and they also have a water projectile attack that arcs and bounces. They're pretty slow, though, so your best bet is to get up close and personal and wail on them before they can do much. You can find them in Galleon Minerva. Their shard, Cerulean Splash, is a handy water spell.

Cannon Morte (#3)

	Normal	Hard/Nightmare
Level	3	5
HP	17	28
XP	8	14
Item Drops	Resist
SP Rounds x3	10.00%	Slash: 0	Strike: -25	Thrust: 20
Cannon Scrap	12.00%	Fire: -25	Ice: 0	Thunder: 0
HP Rounds x3	3.00%	Light: -25	Dark: 20	Poison: 100
Elm	4.00%	Curse: 100	Stone: 50
Shard	Location
Flame Cannon	2.00%	Galleon Minerva

These guys shoot! Thankfully, their range is limited, so if you keep about half a screen away, you're usually safe. Their shots are slow, so you can often jump over them if you need to get in close. If you'd rather not risk it, the Cerulean Splash spell works wonders here. They're found in Galleon Minerva and can drop the Flame Cannon shard.

Aello (#4)

	Normal	Hard/Nightmare
Level	4	6
HP	20	30
XP	11	17
Item Drops	Resist
Tomato	8.00%	Slash: 0	Strike: 0	Thrust: -50
Lemon	4.00%	Fire: -25	Ice: 0	Thunder: 0
Monster Bird Tear	8.00%	Light: 0	Dark: 0	Poison: 0
		Curse: 0	Stone: 50
Shard	Location
Gale Crawler	4.00%	Galleon Minerva, Arvantville, Entrance

Aellos are a step up. They fly, which can make them a nuisance when other enemies are around. If you see them flapping faster, they're about to unleash a volley of feathers. You'll want to jump away from them at a 45-degree angle to dodge. Once they're isolated, they're much easier to handle. You can find them in Galleon Minerva, Arvantville, and the Entrance, and they can drop the Gale Crawler shard.

Ghost (#5)

	Normal	Hard/Nightmare
Level	4	6
HP	19	28
XP	15	23
Item Drops	Resist
Ectoplasm	10.00%	Slash: 15	Strike: 15	Thrust: 15
Ether	6.00%	Fire: 15	Ice: -50	Thunder: -50
Alkahest	12.00%	Light: -50	Dark: 0	Poison: 100
		Curse: 100	Stone: 50
Shard	Location
Summon Ghost	2.00%	Galleon Minerva, Entrance

Ghosts can be tricky at first due to their erratic movement. If they come at you from above, stand your ground and jump to attack as they descend. Even if you miss, you'll have moved out of their path. If they're below you, try to predict their orbit and hit them as they pass. They're found in Galleon Minerva and the Entrance, and their shard is Summon Ghost.

Dullahammer (#6)

	Normal	Hard/Nightmare
Level	5	7
HP	44	62
XP	23	33
Item Drops	Resist
Sea Urchin	8.00%	Slash: 0	Strike: -50	Thrust: 0
Bronze	12.00%	Fire: 0	Ice: 0	Thunder: -50
Dullahammer Helm	3.00%	Light: 0	Dark: 0	Poison: 0
Iron	8.00%	Curse: 0	Stone: 50
Shard	Location
Head Flail	4.00%	Galleon Minerva

Don't let the ball and chain scare you! Dullahammers wind up twice before they swing, making them quite slow. If the ball misses, the attack misses. You can often defeat them before they even get a chance to swing. Blunt weapons like hammers and shoes are good against them, but honestly, just spamming Cerulean Splash four times is the easiest way to take them down. Find them in Galleon Minerva; they can drop the Head Flail shard.

Giant Rat (#7)

	Normal	Hard/Nightmare
Level	5	7
HP	24	33
XP	21	28
Item Drops	Resist
Cheese	12.00%	Slash: 0	Strike: 20	Thrust: 0
Rat Tail	10.00%	Fire: -25	Ice: 0	Thunder: 0
-	-	Light: 0	Dark: 0	Poison: 0
Rat Teeth	4.00%	Curse: 0	Stone: 50
Shard	Location
Summon Rat	4.00%	Arantville, Den of Behemoths

These guys are pretty straightforward. They scurry back and forth, and while they're fast, they don't do much else. Just keep an eye on their speed and try to land hits when you can. You'll find them in Arvantville and the Den of Behemoths, and they might drop the Summon Rat shard.
