Wiki › Foes

Bestiary

The creatures of the island and where they are found.

Life, hit and speed figures are multipliers on a normal monster of the same level. A monster takes its level from where it is met.

A blow shows where it lands. Every creature lights up round its outline for a moment in the blow's colour, and beasts and critters are knocked back and settle again, the spine bending away from the blow and the head snapping back; people flinch instead. A physical blow throws out what the body is made of, given under When struck: drops that land splash the ground and soak in, and a body that falls leaves a pool spreading under it. Weapons strike sparks only from stone, glass and crystal.

Young monsters are gentler. At level 1 a monster has 60% of the full life for its level and deals half the damage; its life reaches the full figure at level 24 and its damage at level 28. In the open world, packs up to level 4 are two or three monsters and never have a rare leader, at most a magic one. Up to level 20 they are two to four, with a rare leader in 3% of packs, and above that two to five, with a rare leader in 6%.

A monster lets go of anyone more than 70 metres away (you took a waypoint, rode off, or fell and stood up at a shrine) and goes home; a raid's bosses keep to their own room. A magic monster gives two and a half times the experience of a common one, a rare six times, and a boss twenty times, times its own worth of one to three.

A monster's blow grows with its level along the old curve to level 12 and more gently after it: from level 28 it is about half what it was, and a higher-level monster still always hits harder than a lower one. Its life eases from full at level 10 to three quarters of the old curve at level 22 and above. Companions, battleground bots and summoned minions keep the old curves. Burning, bleeding and poison from monsters run at half strength on heroes, and a bleed runs from 44% of the physical damage that landed, after armour. No blow from a monster that is not a boss (nor a raid's) takes more than 40% of a hero's maximum life.
