Supplicants are fairly unique in being a non-boss enemy that is effectively immune to stuns, even with upgraded abilities and trinkets (others with this distinction, the Bone Bearer and Hateful Virago, are limited to Champion difficulty). The main potential danger of Supplicants is that they move forward with every attack, displacing more important targets to the back and typically allowing them to do much more powerful moves like the Esquire's Skewering Repartee. The blight, in the right situation may actually be useful, as it will be transferred to any Sycophants using The Thirst. The Supplicant's abilities may appear weak at first glance, but do not underestimate them- Predigestion, in particular, can be a powerful move, especially as it leaves you more vulnerable to bleed attacks from other Bloodsucker enemies, namely Chevaliers and Esquires. They are also slightly more likely (2x/3x/3x) to target marked heroes with any attack. However, Supplicants are also often in the back ranks, pushed there either by heroes or by other enemies moving forward (e.g.

The Supplicant will usually use its weaker move, Gather the Blood, if it can, since it has a much higher chance to use it over Predigestion (4x/3x/3x higher chance on Apprentice/Veteran/Champion).
