God of War: Ascension - Delos Warrior

The Delos Warrior, or Amazon, is an enemy that Kratos won't encounter until he gets to Delos later on in the game. They are women armed with spears that they can use at close and long range. They can attack with melee hits, with their most devastating being a stabbing-combo that can hit multiple times. Whenever you see them do a sidestep, they usually follow it up by throwing the spear straight at you or up in the air, which comes down in 2 seconds or so. Grapple them when you see a red halo to have Kratos automatically kill them.
