An Acolyte will generally lose to a [[Fallen]] [[Vandal]], depending on opposing levels. On rare occasions, Acolytes will be armed with a Boomer instead of a Shredder. They are generally nothing to worry about, however, because they spend most of their time in combat hiding behind cover and are easily killed. | |||
