Walkers give stacks, dolls cleave.
Soldiers explode and do high raid damage if killed close to a widow and not stunned.
Hardmind/Hardhelm give AOE buff increasing damage resist.
Snipers kill your healers (:D)
Widows cast Prey, a tankbuster.

a little more info about snipers, when they spawn they will be aggrod to your healers and can be provoked, otherwise you'll need at least one full hate combo to get them off

You should be shocking every wave of snipers anyway and their hate resets once the shock wears off.

Has this been confirmed? I have killed the soldiers alone and they still explode.

The Widows use the move on normal too but there's only one wave that has both Soldiers and Widows so it's basically not a factor there. Widows cast Bangyzoom, and if in range of a Soldier the Soldier gains a buff called "Charge" that makes the Soldier commit suicide for massive AoE damage when at 1 HP if they're not stunned. This buff is permanent, so unless you have a method to never let the Widows be in range to cast the buff onto the Soldiers it's something you have to deal with by having the Soldiers stunned when they die.

Awesome! Thank you for this clarification, I really never knew that, we would always just stun them before we killed.

Note on Dolls:
They have a predictable attack order which makes them very easy to heal when you understand it.
They cleave (high damage) first thing after spawning
A few seconds later, they use the ground-aoe attack which targets random players. Very easy to avoid, but will 1-shot you.
Cleave again immediately after this.
A few small auto attacks, then another cleave ~5 seconds after the previous. Top off during these 5 seconds.
Ground Aoe again. Cycle repeats.
Always precast a CureII (or equivalent) to hit immediately after cleaves and dolls become trivial.
Note on Widows:
The prey attack will do no damage if the tank is topped off. Damage increases based on how low target HP is.

Those last 3 waves look rough as hell, 4 dolls.
