The Observer, coming from the first Helldivers, forms small scouting units that alert other Illuminate of the presence of a player. If they detect you, they emit a signal to notify other nearby Illuminate units. This includes teleporting reinforcements, such as the <strong>Squi&#8217;ith<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Next we have the <strong>Ghouls<\/strong>. These are mutated enemies that, in addition to attacking in hordes, will tear you apart with their claws. Files collected by <em>dataminers<\/em> show that their size is similar to that of infantry.<\/p>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The <strong>Adept<\/strong> (or Mage) is a floating Illuminate that may have mind control abilities, similar to those found in the early Helldivers. On the other hand, there are the <strong>Exiles<\/strong>, hooded and armed with a gauntlet that shoots laser beams, and also the <strong>Summoner<\/strong>, who according to the leakers, could summon other enemies.<\/p>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Continuing with the Illuminate, we have the <strong>Councilor<\/strong>, who would wear a robe while moving in a floating chair. There is also an enemy referred to as &#8216;<strong>The Guy<\/strong>&#8216; by the list creator. It is a heavily armed infantry unit that would carry what appears to be a melee weapon.<\/p>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You can read the full list here.<\/p>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-reddit wp-block-embed-reddit\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"reddit-embed-bq\" style=\"height:316px\" ><a href=\"https:\/\/www.reddit.com\/r\/HellDiversLeaks\/comments\/1eko5j0\/full_illuminate_roster_so_far\/\">Full Illuminate Roster (So Far)<\/a><br> by<a href=\"https:\/\/www.reddit.com\/user\/Draculasaurus_Rex\/\">u\/Draculasaurus_Rex<\/a> in<a href=\"https:\/\/www.reddit.com\/r\/HellDiversLeaks\/\">HellDiversLeaks<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/embed.reddit.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"UTF-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Illuminate were already present in the first Helldivers game (2015) and now they return with a renewed, intimidating and quite powerful look.
