The Beast type encompasses all of the savage animals that have been tainted by the spreading darkness or awakened by those who trespass into their ancient domain. The Bounty Hunter's Collect Bounty does bonus damage against Humans by default, and some Trinkets give heroes bonus damage against Humans. However, they can potentially be encountered anywhere: Cultists, Brigands, and Madmen are all Human, and they can show up in any region. Humans are most often found within the Weald and the Warrens, as fungal troops and the Swine are all half Human. From lowering heroes' resistances, multi-target attacks, causing stress and even marking their foes so other vile monstrosities can finish the weakened prey off, Human enemies should not be underestimated and be dealt with swiftly. They have no built-in resistances and are quick to fall compared to other enemy types however, their skills are versatile and form the backbone of many teams.

Humans are mortal creatures that stand against you, either for their own selfish gains or a mad desire to assist the evil lurking in the depths of the Estate.
