Emyleba the eternal bone giant

#1 Post by Helios »

Or should it be named Emyleba the invincible bone giant?

100% physical resist, with all other resist at least 86%. And another 86% resist-all.

It's power and accuracy are so high that they are shown as ** rather than actual numbers.

Each time it strikes, it always deal two physical damage for some reason.
One death dance from it would often kill my Lv.36 Dwarf Bulwark outright.

I have no idea how to defeat such an abomination. Maybe I should just run.

There are times when running away is more intelligent, this is one of those times.

Whenever you meet a random unique with this kind of stats, and especially at the high peak, you should not even try to fight it. And even without the resistances, in high peak a random boss with ** power and matching talents tends to have the potential to instakill you.

Hmm, I thought that it would have been horribly gimped by Gesture of Pain, but I guess it doesn't have a free hand to activate it with. Too bad, that would have made it quite bearable.

On a related note: gotta love that resist all stacks additively, Blinding Speed, Slow Motion, and Precise Strikes all increase (practically) linearly, and Shattering Impact hits can be boosted by talents and crits, basically multiplying all melee damage by 80% (in this case). Aren't high level NPC's fun?
