Zombies are the weakest form of demons and will die to mostly any hit. They are best eliminated when you're low on health for a small health boost. They can also be useful to trigger on-kill effects such as the Charge effect on the Skullcrusher Pulverizer.

Codex Entry

Drones are the lowest echelon of Maykr society and are trained to fulfill the edicts of their superiors without question. They are rarely seen outside the confines of the Kreed Maykr's ship where they monitor the Slayer's tether and the security of his holding cell.
