A big armored russian zombie. That only appears on gorod krovi. Very cool enemy, shame they only appear on one map. Maybe treyarch can add them to their next game, then never remove them. Anyway…
The first one will spawn between round 5 and 8. After that the game will randomly spawn in a new one after 3 to 5 rounds. Max 2 can be alive in solo, 3 for 3 duo, 4 for 3p or 4p. Max manglers who can spawn in is: 3 per player in match. Delay between manglers spawning in a round also decreases for more players. They will spawn behind barriers like normal zombies but will destroy it with on blast.
Mangler has 2 attacks. A close range melee attack. His melee is slightly stronger than a zombie, doing 50 damage. Normal zombie is 45, used to be 60 in waw to bo2. He also have a arm cannon with a ranged attack. Their projectile have a really strong tracking and will explode when close enough, with very high knockback. So he doesnt have to hit you with the projectile itself to deal damage. Damage is between 100 to 50 based on distance to explosion. Direct hit can instakill without jugg.
Mangler have a base health of 5500 hp. The game will take 100 hp multiply this with the round number then add this to their health. So their total health for a round is: hp= 5500 +(100*round number). They get 15% extra health per extra player. So +15% for 2p, +30% for 3, +45% for 3p and +60% for 4p. Their health caps at 15 000 hp. He ignores AAT.
Important note is that manglers have armor that can be shott off. Armor reduces damage taken with 90%. This armor is his helmet, chestplate, left shoulder and thighs. All their armor pieces have their own health that is a percentage of their total health. Armor hp will take full damage with mangler hp only taking 10%. His armor will also ignore instakills, but mangler without his armor will not.
Helmet has 30% of their max health. His helmet ignores headshot damage until it is shoot off.
Chestplate has 40%.
Left shoulder/thighs have 25%.
Their arm cannon has its own health that is 33% of their total health. It does not have armor from my knowledge. When their arm cannon has taken enough damage it will explode and force mangler into a sprint. Should mangler have more than 25% health left then the game will set their health to 25%.
If something is wrong or missing, let me know.

This is only for bo3. Manglers in coldwar and bo6 have different hp and damage values. Their armor also have a little less reduction. Reduses damage with 50% to 70% compared to bo3 90%.
