Riot Soldier

The Riot Soldier is an enemy that appears in Doom Eternal: The Ancient Gods - Part Two. It is functionally similar to soldiers with their shield equipped, except that their shield cannot be destroyed. They take additional damage from explosives.

Appearance
The Riot Soldier appears to have been redesigned from its first appearance in Doom II, sporting heavy red armor and a black metal helmet that only exposes its eyes. It has a chaingun fused to its right arm, while its left arm carries a tower shield made of yellow energy.

Combat Analysis
The Riot Soldier is essentially an upgraded Shield Soldier that behaves in a similar manner. However, its shield is completely indestructible, and its chaingun fires bullets in a linear direction.
