Strategy
The Yeti is a very durable enemy, and thus one not to be wasted time on. They can be jumped on to knock them unconscious, but whipping them just pushes them back a little. Two jumps with the Spike Shoes or two bullets from a Pistol or Shotgun will kill them. Yeti have the ability to throw you a distance, which deals 1 damage on impact even if you don't fall far enough to take falling damage. If there is a wall tile above them, they won't throw you, but it is possible to be repeatedly thrown to death if you are near a wall or several Yeti. Note that if you get thrown but land directly on another Yeti, you WON'T take damage immediately, but will get thrown again until you hit a wall or floor.
Of course, since Area 3 is known for having a bottomless pit instead of a floor, being thrown by a Yeti may cause you to never touch ground again.
There is a glitch where if you're closed in on walls and get tossed, you may instantly die due to clipping into the wall.
A stunned Yeti grants 4 favour with Kali, and they tend to be plentiful - hence, it is often worth offering as many of them as possible if there is an altar in the level.
