Doom Eternal: The Archvile demon - what are the easiest ways of defeating him?
Last update:
On this page of the Doom Eternal game guide, we explain the easiest ways and methods to eliminate Arch-vile , that is, a demon capable of summoning enemy forces. Arch-vile is one of the most powerful demons, and every fight with this enemy should be started by quickly eliminating them.

You can encounter Archvile demons starting from the ninth mission of the campaign - Taras Nabad. They are able to summon other monsters and, as a result, eliminating them is the highest priority.

You can easily recognize the presence of an Archvile by the fact that other demons are using red shields. If possible, try to ignore the remaining monsters and focus on tracking down the Archvile as soon as possible.

The game Codex suggests that you can destroy the shields of Archvile demons by using the Blood Punch skill. Remember, attack Archvile only when he is busy summoning other monsters. Then you can quickly get behind the enemy - then he won't be able to defend. The Crucible Blade is the best weapon if you want eliminate Arch-vile in just few seconds. You can also use other powerful weapons, such as the Rocket Launcher or the Ballista.
