So, Ripper Demons? Powerful Slashers of Fear or just kittens who need taming, gonna write another tl;dr guide for them because I feel a lot of people really don’t like them because of the damage/mechanics involved with them.

TL;DR: Ripper Demon Edition

Gear: Tank + Lifesteal + Melee (Darklight)
Effectively doable without food in this setup, you heal so damn much. Throw in Excalibur too every 5 minutes and HP shouldn’t be a problem.

Mechanics: Pray Melee, Devotion as often as possible. When the bar above the Ripper Demon fills up, they may jump into the air. If they do, move 1 or 2 steps east, as the Shadow Dot (THIS WILL ONE HIT YOU) appears west of your where you are. Using Bleeds, trigger the lifesteal effects more frequently. Keep hp above 50% and move away the moment you kill them (Just start fighting another one and pick up the first drop when you kill the 2nd, repeat).

Oh and only try to run away from them when they jump, if they blink to you, they will Slaughter you, so be prepared to Freedom the bleed.

Drops are pretty good and likely to retain value, also the Charm rate is absurdly good from these once you get a good kill speed up.
