The Ghoul Rictus is a Grineer Ghoul armed with a Ghoulsaw. These saws can be ejected similar to the
Panthera's Alternate Fire, traveling a distance before returning to them. The Rictus also has the uncanny ability to ride on the ejected saws, allowing them to approach and ram their enemies from afar. As with all Ghouls, on death they will release a cloud that inflicts
Cold and
Toxin.
Behaviour[]
Depending on their distance from the players, they'll often start by shooting their saw off, flying off a distance before traveling back to them. Then they will quickly ride their saw towards the player, attempting to ram them in the process.
