Fiends are monstrous beasts with a heavily armored carapace. Unlike the stealthier wraiths, Fiends are besieging units that attack head-on, scattering enemy forces and destroying entrenched enemy positions. They attack non-kett without appearing to need orders; some scientists believe Fiends respond aggresively to an abscence of kett pheromones or similar cues.
A Fiend’s carapace is permeated by dense cartilage that makes it both strong and flexible, and acts as a shock absorber for incoming fire. Preliminary study of their nervous system suggests that nerve transmission is dampened above a certain pain threshold, allowing a Fiend to detect injury but not be slowed by it. Reports of encounters are often accompanied by casualty lists, and the militia advises that only a well-armed and organized team should handle a Fiend at full rampage.
Fiends might be somehow related to Eirochs, which are colored red or blue.
Strategy
As with every Mass Effect game, taking out armored opponents require using fire-attuned skills and abilities. Whittle down its armor with the flamethrower ability so you can take it out easily with other abilities. Keep barraging it with ammunition from a distance. When it roars and charges you, quickly dodge it. Rinse and repeat.
