Avenger deals simple Physical Cleave and Double Strike attacks. Mage casts weak Sparks and Conductivity auras on the ground. The Mage also will cast a large, slow-moving Ball Lightning that deals heavy damage so stand clear. The Mage casts Lightning Thorns on the Avenger which reflects Lightning damage back to the attacker. Again, this is extremely dangerous for fast attacking builds so always pay attention (the mage does not cast it on herself so it is usually safest to kill her first). |
Contrary to their unremarkable looks, the two bosses are capable of extremely high damage output. Lightning Thorns should always be approached with appropriate care. However the true danger poses the Blackguard Avengers Double Strike, which can even tear through tankier characters within mere moments. A potential stun-lock because of the powerful hits and resulting inability to act is a lethal threat. High defenses against physical damage are advised, otherwise the boss should absolutely be kited, which, luckily, is easy due to its lack of a gap-closing ability. One should also be aware that the duo is encountered at the very end of the map and because of their appearance it is easy to overlook them between other mobs, which can be a deadly mistake.
