Helicultists spawn during the Baron's Keep mission, appearing as Occasus cultists riding gyrocopters. While they do no direct contact damage, they attack by throwing molotovs onto the ground around the player, which do fire damage. They do not possess a weakness (+50% damage taken) or a resistance (-50% damage taken) to any type of damage. When a helicultist's health reaches 0, the gyrocopter falls toward the ground and it and the helicultist are destroyed upon collision.
Internally to the game, helicultists (the cultist and the gyrocopter together) are implemented as a monster rather than an NPC on a vehicle.
Trivia
- The gyrocopters they ride appear to be based on Da Vinci's aerial screw.
