Erratic foes

Creatures theme

Includes opponents that move/act in significantly erratic fashion, making defeating them a challenge mostly due to this. Often seen with them flailing their primary weak point in a way that's hard to follow accurately.

Alternate names: Staggering foes, Wobbling foes

Especially if that erratically moved weak point is the only way to defeat them.

Staggering/wobbling synonyms are there for instances when they do it all the time.

Not including enemies that only have animations for this but don't really affect how easily they're defeated (such as no weak points to aim at).
