Clocktower Patient (Leaping) ❘ 実験棟の患者	Regular Enemy

These unfortunate victims of the Healing Church's shady experiments comprise the largest and most diverse enemy group in the expansion areas. Each variant uses a different set of attacks from the others and many of them incorporate gimmicks unique to their own subtype; most are susceptible to interrupts and staggers, but the Crawling version is immune. Additionally, although very few opportunities for exploiting this mechanic exist, the Clocktower Patients are handled as an opposing team type to the Wheelchair Huntsmen found in certain locations throughout the Research Hall; notably, a Wheelchair Huntsman armed with a Gatling gun is positioned on an inaccessible ledge overlooking a staircase and will mow down a group of patients attempting to climb the stairs as you approach. Fortunately, with the exception of the patients armed with transfusion stands, members of this enemy group generally have low health and will fall to a few R1 attacks; the main danger they pose is their tendency to attack in large groups with swift combos, so keep an ear out for their telltale screams and proceed with caution if you suspect an ambush.

One of the least common variants of the Clocktower Patient, found only in a couple of locations throughout the Research Hall. These enemies crawl rapidly on all fours in an almost spiderlike motion and strike with far greater speed than most of the other types, using rapid leaping attacks, flailing lunges, headbutts and short-range arm swipes. They have considerably more health than the other patients and can inflict heavy damage, but can be knocked over by gunshots in the same way as the dog-type enemies found in other areas. They are also susceptible to visceral attacks, though the timing required to interrupt them is extremely precise and their movements so unpredictable that attempting to do so is a difficult proposition.

Shoot them to knock them down, then close in and strike with (R1) combos as they recover. If the first combo doesn't finish them, shoot them again before they can attack and perform another. Interrupts against this enemy type are more likely to occur by accident than by design, but by all means capitalize on such opportunities should one arise. All of these enemies' attacks can be avoided simply by quickstepping forward past them, at which point a timely gunshot during their recovery will render them helpless long enough to close in and finish them off.

All enemies and bosses (except hunter enemies) have 999 frenzy resistance, despite that they are still vulnerable to such status. The only way to see it without modding is to use Shaman Bone Blade on enemy inflicting frenzy to attack others. [test video]

It appears that Research Hall Patients are reskinned and reanimated Labyrinth Watchers. Patients don't have the full body model, but if you take their body skin and put it on a Labyrinth Watcher‘s you get this picture.

	Pungent Blood Cocktails attract this enemy, making it vulnerable for few seconds.
	Shaman Bone Blades affect this enemy, making it hostile to other enemies.
