==Tactics==
Displacer beasts are significant combat threats. 18 strength makes them formidable attackers. while {{SAI|Displace (Displacer Beast)|Displace}} gives them free roam of the arena while leaving behind a double that can still dish out damage. This brute strength can be countered by targeting their low mental abilities, which make them more susceptible to manipulating or controlling effects like {{SAI|Fear}} or {{SAI|Banishment}}.
