Strategy

This enemy can easily be dealt with using the Talk skill and selecting the right options, although it doesn't work with some Ghouls in the sewers.

The Ghoul's low health means it can be killed with only a few strikes. However, it still poses a threat to weak parties, as its scratch and bite attacks are likely to cause infections. If trying to kill the Moonscorched, it is advised to go straight for the chest, as it can still use its bite attack without its arms.
