Exor is a hostile creature found in Cascade, especially around the Adjustment Wing in Labs. It is differentiated from its Exor Monk cousins by a weapon arm and a coating of bright glowing bioluminescent residue or "war-paint".
Description: Fires a burst of 4-6 Exor Quills from their right arm.
Dodge Strategy: The quills can be dodged by continuously side-strafing. Unlike the Exor Monks Laser attack, swapping strafing direction mid-dodge will most likely result in taking a hit due to the projectile's travel time.
Speed: Exor Quills fired from the Arm Gun travel at relatively slow speeds. The Burst comes out at a fire rate of roughly 200 RPM.
Leap Attack
Range: Short range (2-3 meters)
Description: Jumping attack, meant to close distance for melee. May cause Bleeding. Strong knockback when blocked.
Dodge Strategy: Preemptive Dodge: Maintain a distance greater than 2 storage crates. When closing for melee, attempt to begin circling as early as possible to avoid this attack.
Speed: Fast, somewhat difficult to block on reaction.
Rushdown
Range: Short range (<2 meters)
Description: A series of jabs and stabs using both arms. High chance to cause Bleeding.
Dodge Strategy: This attack is difficult to dodge by strafing due to the fact that the Exor remains able to turn while performing it. Backing away while blocking will allow one to avoid most hits in the combo.
Speed: Comes out very fast, and performs hits in quick succession. Difficult to block on reaction.
Movement
Patrols: Some Exors may roam a designated area.
Guard: Some Exors will stand guard in a designated area.
Vulnerability
Electro-Thrower: Electro-Thrower can defeat an Exor with roughly 1/3 a charge, while partially stun-locking them.
Defeating the Exor
Due to its tendency to shoot while moving away from the player, it's recommended to use ranged weapons. Otherwise, it's possible to dodge their shots while closing in the distance, until they're then forced to engage in melee, when it's then possible to dodge their attacks while countering with melee weapons.
