7 Idiot Enemies Who Will Kill Your Enemies for You

[@metarcee2483]

In Breath of the wild, if a moblin doesn't have any rocks available to throw at you, they will throw bokoblins.

[@DavidAnderson-ld9pu]

Why stop with the Moblin. A Cucco is the ultimate weapon, since they are invulnerable any enemy that attacks one will be swamed and killed by them.

[@medusathedecepticon]

[@heartofthewild680]

And in Tears Of The Kingdom, you can use muddle buds to make any enemy attack anything it sees (including it’s friends). Doing this to a boss bokoblin is especially fun

[@dragonwriterluc]

@@heartofthewild680 Additionally, if Ganon's servants are right next to Zonai constructs, the two camps will attack each other if only you approach and/or tear down the barriers that the bokoblins put up.

[@daviddaugherty2816]

Fun fact: in the Oblivion quest "The Ultimate Heist", the regular guards in the lower floors that try to arrest you and the fancy guards on the upper floors that try to kill you are listed in game as being part of different factions. Since these factions are hostile to each other, if you lead one group into another, these guards tasked with protecting the Imperial Palace will kill each other while the intruder gets off scott-free. Cyrodil's finest, ladies and gentlemen.

Hile I was walking around at night, I saw the shadow of the dragon in the sky. While I was watching it, I heard a bear growling. Whip around, and it's right next to me, and if the dragon hadnt A) caused me to stop, and B) caused the bear to growl, I would have walked right into him and likely pooped my pants when that rock turns out to be a bear 😅

[@coltonmarkusson2397]

In borderlands 2 and 3 there are goliaths in bandit camps. When you shoot the helmet off of these guys they become enraged and start attacking whoever’s closest to them, friend or foe. The real benefit of this is that after the Goliath kills an enemy it will heal and transform again and again allowing them to kill more enemies and dropping better loot when they get killed.

[@alyssavanderklift9296]

ah the glorious end result being the godliath. great loot dispensers, if you get unlucky also a total pain when there's nothing left for them to kill but you. had that happen when i accidentaly knocked one's helmet off with some grenade and by the end of his rampage was pretty much entirely out of ammo... fun times, until it wasn't at least i could respawn, restock and massacre him then

[@RealCaptainAwesome]

[@Dutch_is_a_Weird_Language]

The Borderlands 2 Goliaths' rage quotes also never get old. "GET READY TO FEEL MY FINGERS IN YOUR EYEBALLS!"

[@ClawMacKain]

I was about to mention this as well. The times I went to the valley of the Fire Hawk cultists, snipe off a Goliath's helmet, then make some distance and watch the bodies fly. Playing Zer0 made it so much easier to avoid getting killed myself since he has his cloaking ability. And if you had his explosive decoy and status kunai perks, you can trick a Godliath into attacking your decoy, pelt him with kunai, and since some of the kunai apply slag status once the decoy explodes, the Godliath trying to attack the decoy will take a huge amount of shock damage and pretty much instantly die with very minimal work having to be done yourself.

[@TJForceIX]

In WoW, Priests have an ability called Mind Control that does what it says on the tin, but even better than that was an ability that Outlaw Rogues had during Legion called Bribe. You would give an NPC a fake coin to work for you and start killing other mobs, until they realize the coin is fake after 30 seconds and turn on you. One of the most hilarious explanations for taking control of an enemy I've seen in a video game.

[@fakjbf3129]

Similar to this is AC3 where you can grab an enemy soldier and use them as a human shield against musket fire. Despite having plenty of time to choose to spare their comrade, the soldiers will instead sacrifice them to try and hit you through them. I can only imagine this is because you always happen to grab the one who snores loudly at night.

In Don't Starve, getting enemies to kill each other is a semi-regular thing to do, and you can even do it to several bosses! One strategy is to lure the Bearger to a forest to let it smash down trees for you to collect later, with enraged Treeguards later showing up to kill it for all the trees its destroyed. Its a win-win-win!

[@augsburgermatt]

Definitely thought this would have the Fury spell from Skyrim. Nothing more fun than getting in a dark corner, casting this spell on your hapless victim, and then watching as the city guard, or even just their ole bandit buddies cut them down

If the enemy currently attacking you hasn't been struck by you when shot it will also turn on the skeleton and try to murder it first...giving you the option to choose which one you will assist before taking your temporary ally out as soon as your mutual foe falls. Usually I choose to kill the skeletons first because I hate being shot at. Best part of it all? By the time the annoying archer is down the other enemy is usually weak enough from soaking hits I can take IT out with a single swing. It's not cowardice when it gives you the tactical advantage!

Most of the enemy mooks in the open world areas of Dragon Age: Inquisition will fight each other. You might see rebel Templars fighting apostates, bears attacking bandits, demons attacking Freemen (a group of deserters) or undead fighting Avvar barbarians, depending on where you are. There’s also one notable encounter on the Storm Coast where you see a giant fighting a dragon.

[@mathewwilkins1613]

Most of those are scripted though. The Templar/mage fights are set dressing, the dragon/giant fight is a one off set piece for world building and the Avvar fighting the demons is an agent recruitment opportunity. You do get NPCs fighting but you usually have to bring them together and even then they concentrate on your party more than eachother.

[@healsallwounds]

@@mathewwilkins1613No, most of them are not scripted. In fact, there are only a couple examples of scripted fights taking place between your enemies - the dragon vs. the giant on the Storm Coast and a couple of Avvar vs. the undead fights in the Fallow Mire.

[@raulportela3039]

The Berserk darts are amazing but what makes them truly OP is that they work on anyone, including your primary targets. So you can get to the max range, shoot them and they'll be dead by the time you get back to your ship.

One minute it's atonalism and the works of Hieronymus Bosch; next minute it's describing tigers as "stripey murder Garfields". This kind of writing is a big part of why I appreciate this channel so very much.

[@Nikchand1]

Moblins throwing their homies will never not be funny to me.

[@gravajaumbros]

While Berserk Darts may have made their debut in Assassin's Creed IV, Berserk Poison was a thing back in AC2, and it was glorious fun!

[@IkeFanBoy64]

Goliaths from Borderlands 2 would make a good addition to this. Knock off their helmet, and they become so enraged that they attack their own peers.

[@ilikechococookies342]

It’s really satisfying in Xcom 2 to take control of enemies and make them fight each other rather than your squad 😊

[@Aliuro]

Or watching a swarm of the Lost attacking aliens in abandoned cities)

[@stormthrush37]

You can also do this in the original (XCOM UFO Defense).

[@rafrivera7883]

1:14 I was not ready to see fat dude knock lil bro out😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@The_Sleepiest_Socialist]

It makes him the best character in the game.

[@fatalwaffle1715]

Awesome video! I've always like to watch enemies fight each other I even like when you can turn enemies into allies.

[@Doogie2K3]

How could you have forgotten the original Doom and Doom II? The enemies could often be tricked into fighting each other, which is especially useful when you need a Cyberdemon whittled down.

[@kieranhair37]

There are a lot of classic games that could be on here. Pretty sure there are Wolfenstein games where the enemies attack each other too. Thief as well. There's a particularly interesting one (it might be one of the Thief Gold levels) where a group of guards is talking outside, and they go inside right before another group patrols by. But if you frequently pause and unpause the game, it makes the guards restart their dialogue, so they'll still be outside when the second group patrols. Do that, and the two groups will fight each other. It puts the survivors on alert, and you start nearby enough that they'll probably find you, but it's still fun to see at least once.

[@Burningtoast212]

Bloodborne, when you fight the Celestial Emissary, you can use the shaman bone blade on it, you can get all the minions to kill the boss for you

[@sergentboucherie]

In Elden Ring I wanted to see if Varré could help me killing the Tree Sentinel, well I learned that Varré was a pacifist and he got killed by the Tree Sentinel without doing anything. I then decided to hire a Troll to fight the Tree Sentinel, at least the Troll fought back

[@TheOmegaDragon]

You can give the Dung Eater the Potion that was meant for Nepheli Loux which will brainwash him then you can purchase him from Seluvis as a summonable puppet.

[@tohfawalker159]

I know I’m being pedantic about this but surely the berserk dart would be described as venomous or toxic but not poisonous since poison is ingested and venom is injected.

[@Cynadite]

what about the titan enemies from the arkham games? they would take out like 8 enemies in for no reason.

[@claratalbot7613]

I immediately thought of Hypnotize from Bioshock that allows u to turn a big Daddy into a powerhouse protector that will murder every single splicer that comes anywhere near u as if u are their little sister they must protect

[@AngelBeatYunara]

The shaman bone blades in Bloodborne can come in handy for this, for sure. Especially the big whale lads in the well in the DLC.

[@SolaScientia]

I said the same, lol. That was my method. I wasted one on the first attempt because I wasn't close enough and just swung at the air. The second one connected and it was a breeze. I was relieved to see that the 2nd shark that dropped from the ceiling has notably less health than the first one, so he was easier for me to kill after he took care of the first one for me. That fight was honestly a lot easier for me than I expected when going into it.

[@insaincaldo]

Hell it's almost required for those two. They are quite a bad time.

[@alzingafagan7501]

What about everything in Shadow of War? When Uruks are not trying to kill you, they occasionally get bored, look at their comrade and say,"what the heck, we just pulled a new uruk out the cats anyway," and 0roceed to go ham with killing their allies.

[@MotherOfAllOmletes]

I'm actually a bit surprised the Possession vigor from Bioshock Infinite wasn't on here. It quite literally makes enemies fight each other and if you upgrade it, they'll fight each other then kill themselves when it's run out

[@elafimilo8199]

Hardcore

[@catgoat6471]

Tears of the Kingdom. Use a muddlebud to turn enemies against each other. It's my favorite part of the game.

[@Gakulon]

While not really killing, I was hoping to see some Yakuza 0 on this list, where Majima can use a heat action in his Breaker style to dodge one guy's attack so it hits another. Endless entertainment

[@derrinerrow4369]

Oh yeah I loved that heat action!

[@captainhindsight6994]

Honourable mention to the super mutant suicider. Yes, he doesn't attack your enemies per say but he does help you alot

[@kateyderr3077]

I'm surprised you didn't mention how in Elden Ring, the jade masked critters in catacombs, the cat dog bosses, and the titan constructs, will electrically short out and turn on their allies if you strike them with enough crystal darts.

[@Darcnhife]

Can they attack invaders?

[@kateyderr3077]

@@Darcnhife I've never had a chance to play online. Playing offline makes me rage quit more than enough already. 😂

[@ironbatman9689]

Tetris is about killing blocks, unless it's multiplayer, then it's about eliminating other players. (That's just another word for killing)

[@iandoddsblah]

Earlier on in TLOU2 there are two areas with both infected and human enemies.. you can set up them meeting and make your passage significantly easier.

[@nicholaspoling9691]

I would like to add 3 entries for next time this list comes around: Hades: Charmed Enemies, it's even more fun when you hit Hades himself and he kills the very minions he just spawned Dark Souls 3: Just before The Watch Dogs of Farron fight, Dark Wraiths and those Tree Guys fight to the death and is a nice farm for souls Assassin's Creed Revelations: Janissaries and Templars don't mix.

[@avereynakama9854]

It's funny to get Theseus and Asterius to fight each other, too, during their boss fight in Hades.

[@marcusc9931]

I remember some sith threateningly tracing a half circle in the floor with a lightsaber... while standing on a glass roof.

[@Peter_The_Great]

Sounds like something from Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy?

[@TheHufflepuffSaint]

Seeing the Far Cry Tigers brought back memories of the Far Cry-athlons you guys did back in the day. ☺️💜💛

[@brandsworth2022]

Borderlands series. Goliaths are so fun because they actually level up and drop better loot when they kill their mates

[@foxfireinferno197]

Another fun one. In the original Doom, way back when, if you could get two demons of different species to accidentally hit each other, they'd keep attacking one another. If you came across a room full of mixed demons, just firing a rocket or something in there to stir them up, letting friendly fire happen, then bailing out was a good strategy.

[@LlorDrei]

According to the original Tetris manual, the blocks all have names.

[@seanmcbride434]

Always loved getting the Goliaths in Borderlands to not only kill their friends, they level up and give you the goods when you put them down.

[@saltmyne]

been playing Zombie Army 4: Dead War recently and quite a few of the special zombies harm the rest. flamers setting them on fire, gunners mowing em down, stuff like that. it's pretty fun to splatter a group of zombies by shooting a suicider that's in the middle of it

[@Z3WHA6]

One of the earliest examples I can think of is Perfect Dark. In one level, Joanna acquires the psychosis gun, which we dubbed "the obedient servant gun." It was a unique mechanic at the time and an absolute delight in an era where infuriating escort missions were all the rage.

[@yoancampion9836]

In borderland 2 if you shoot a Goliath helmet off, he goes on a rampage and will murder the closest enemy he could find.

[@austinschroeter5978]

If I recall Watch Dogs 2 had a feature where you could call the cops on someone to arrest them and if they resist they start shooting at your target, or you can put a hit on someone and have a gang shoot at them, I did both a lot when I was in heavily guarded areas! One of the funniest things I saw!

[@NeckGang]

Payday 2 when you force a police officer into helping you rob a bank. lol

[@Greenwood4727]

there is one area in fallout 4, where there are ghouls, supermutants and raiders, if you can kite them to the same place they all have a 3 way attack

[@stunner5792]

Glad I subbed to your channel, remember when I use to watch Andy through my Xbox 360 back in Uni around 2011. The man has aged well and he still funny asf with the signature british dark humour.

[@jamesallan5914]

The ant lions in Half Life 2 are one of the all time classics. Spend ages fighting against them, then with a help of a pheromone pod, all of a sudden they're on your side.

[@Arentzen]

In Shadow of the Tomb Raider, Lara can use an Arrow which works like the Beserk Dart. And in TES V - Skyrim you can use spell called "Frenzy" which will do the same.

[@KDKalvinDrake]

The Hieronymus Bosch shout is a pleasant reminder why I'm subscribed.

[@Barnowl65]

Surprised Binding of Isaac didn't make the list. Hit anything with charm tears and an enemy will clear the room for you. It even works on bosses!
