rift mob:Murdantix  

Abilities

• Spirit Capture: When an attacker dies he grows more powerful.
• Demonic Blast: A multiple-projectile attack with area-of-effect impacts.
• Demonic Tar: A projectile attack that leaves long lasting damage zones on the ground.
• Ferocious Pound: A large-radius knockback.
• Mangling Crush: A ferocious attack that leaves the target with an armor debuff.
• Summon Tormenters: Murdantix summons minions to fight with him.

Strategies

• Make sure to keep ranged DPS and healers spread apart so they aren’t destroyed by Demonic Blast, or else, well, they’ll be destroyed by Demonic Blast.
• Demonic Tar will aim for, and land on a player, but it should be easy to deal with as long as players are quick to move out of it. Hey. HEY! Are you Alt-tabbed or just blind? Come on, man! MOVE!
• Ferocious Pound is unavoidable so be sure to have all players topped off before it hits. Though we’re pretty sure you’re going to try to jump anyway.
• The longer the battle lasts, the more Mangled Crush will hurt you, so prepare to have at least two tanks switching between off-tanking duties.
• The Tormentors should just be off-tanked and ignored if you have the healing to support it. You can clean them up when the big bad dog is dead.

ZAM would like to thank PC Gamer for the abilities and strategies.
