Battle[]
Havocfangs are canine enemies that appear in packs. They are weak to greatswords, daggers and ice. They resist fire and light. They can pounce pin Noctis down for a button-mashing QTE (can be blocked and parried). They can confuse the player party.
Strategy[]
Protecting against Confusion with accessories and food buffs helps. The player can use Smelling Salts to cure the condition. Being led to the middle of the pack can lead to Noctis repeatedly falling over, so the player may want to stay some distance away and stay in defensive mode and wait for parry opportunities. Ice elemancy is good against them. Character-swapping to Ignis lets the player use his fast-hitting ice daggers.
