Heavy Swinging Enemigo are two type of Enemigo that wields a swinging weapon. Its difference from a White Swinging Enemigo is that while a White Swinging Enemigo carries a weapon that swings horizontally and is usually one-handed (e. g. Machete, Pipe, etc.), they carry a weapon that swings vertically and requires two hands(e. g. Cactus, 2 x 4, etc.).
There are two types of Heavy Swinging Enemigos; Green, and Brown/Blue. Brown/Blue Swinging Enemigo carries a weapon with both hands separated, while Green Swinging Enemigo carries a weapon with both hands together.
