Wanderburg Enemy Database
Every enemy type, boss, and neutral unit with exact stats from the launch build.
This page is the complete enemy database for Wanderburg’s launch build. Numbers come from the game database and public data sources. Bosses, regular enemies, and neutral units are all here with their stats, attack patterns, and where they appear.
For fighting advice, see how to beat bosses. For module recommendations against these types, see the module tier list.
Bosses
Bosses are the apex roaming fortresses you encounter at the end of each stage tier. They scale in difficulty and reward. All bosses share a 30-second lifetime and drop 100 RES on defeat unless noted.
Tier 0 Boss
The introductory boss. Appears in Dark Forest Stage 1, Desert Stage 1, and Grassland Stage 1.
Stats: 1800 HP, 10 damage, 6.5s attack interval, 100 range, 13 speed. Has 3 attacks and 3 stage appearances.
Attack patterns: Cannon projectiles (1 per attack, 0.25s interval, 0s travel), Drill damage (1 damage per tick, 0.5s tick interval) used twice. Fire resistance 50%, stun resistance 75%, immune to burning.
Strategy: Target wheels first to immobilize, then focus fire on the main chassis. The drill attack requires staying mobile.
Sauger — Tier 1 Boss
Appears in Dark Forest Stage 2, Desert Stage 2, and Grassland Stage 2.
Stats: 4500 HP, 25 damage, 17.5 speed. Single attack type, 3 stage appearances, rewards 100 RES.
Strategy: Larger than Tier 0 with more HP. Ram builds should time boost carefully. Mortar and ranged modules work well at this tier.
Mortar — Tier 2 Boss
Appears in Dark Forest Stage 3, Desert Stage 3, and Grassland Stage 3.
Stats: 6000 HP, 50 damage, 0.25s attack interval, 120 range, 17.5 speed. High damage artillery, 3 stage appearances, 100 RES reward.
Attack patterns: High-damage cannon shots every 0.25s. Projectiles have 0.5s travel duration and ignore enemies.
Strategy: Do not stand still. Circle strafe at range. Mortar towers and kiting builds shine here. Keep moving to avoid the high-damage volleys.
Mage Tower — Tier 3 Boss
Appears in Dark Forest Stage 4, Desert Stage 4, and Grassland Stage 4.
Stats: 10000 HP, 20 speed, 100 range. 3 attacks, 3 stage appearances, 100 RES reward.
Attack patterns: Single powerful cannon (20s interval), 6-projectile spread (10s interval, 30 damage each, ignores enemies), 10-projectile burst (10s interval, 10 damage, passes through friendlies and enemies). Fire resistance 70%, stun resistance 75%, immune to burning.
Strategy: The multi-projectile attacks are the danger. Use cover and terrain. Do not try to tank this boss. High-damage ranged modules or sustained fire builds work best.

Spawn Mechanics
Enemy waves scale by stage tier. Early stages (0-1) feature 10-30 basic units. Later stages (3-4) reduce basic unit counts but increase elite and boss presence.
Desert and Dark Forest stages replace wheeled enemies with leg-based variants. Walking forts do not leave tyre tracks. Read vertical slam indicators instead of horizontal movement cues.
The video in the middle of this page shows a full game run with enemy encounters across multiple stages. Watch for boss attack patterns and wave compositions.

Neutral units like sheep, chickens, and cows provide easy RES and scrap without combat risk. They appear most commonly in later stage tiers and are a reliable food source.
