      Worth noting that the "snake ball" concept has been discovered by a data miner as an unused boss: It even has more pronounced degrees of the egg/blister/infestation on the main head.

          Despite their appearance, they seem to be unable to attack directly behind them. My most recent tactic has been to bait them into attacking and then strafing behind them.

            It's worth noting that there are two variants of this enemy, one with two large heads, and one with only one large head. The variant with one large head never spits venom, and has a slightly different moveset. It's also significantly more willing to approach and pursue the hunter, since it lacks ranged options.

              I'm playing a skill/arcane character with nothing that can stagger them, but I've found that with good positioning, you can safely hit them with the transformed cane's tip. They're attacks will just miss you, unless they do the big sweep with their big head, though you should be able to avoid that with a quick backstep.

                Speculation, but the growths on the biggest snake, main body perhaps, look like Insect eggs. We also have smaller snakes possessing or infecting humans known as "Vermin" Host. As to why they are snake vermin and not league bug vermin, maybe the bugs infect the snakes? The big snakes do look like it has bug eggs on it.
