SPOILER Revenant Of Skien Stats

Just because. I was in the area and had a badge so :P

In general, earlier phases are regular Melee AI, middle phases are Skitter AI, and later phases are Charge AI. I didn't record exact details (kind of hard to do as Archer).

Phases 1 through 9 have 10k health each. Phase 10 has 30k health, and Phase 11 has 5k health.

Phase 1 - Charge (nondamaging) with no-cooldown. Gaps in between of course, so it's like 0 sec cooldown x5 and maybe 5 sec cooldown x1 - this is a common pattern for him, which I'll refer to as bursts for conciseness.
Phase 2 - Multihit bursts, typically about 5-10 uses in a row.
Phase 3 - Arrow Storm bursts, typically about 5-10 uses in a row.
Phase 4 - Heavy Charge bursts, typically about 5-10 uses in a row.
Phase 5 - Multihit, but instead of bursts, he seems to just use it with a 1 second cooldown constantly. I'm pretty sure he has Vanish too.
Phase 6 - Arrow Storm bursts, I think he also has Vanish.
Phase 7 - Heavy Charge bursts, also has Vanish
Phase 8 - All three at the same time, although he does pause relatively regularly. Not sure if he has Vanish.
Phase 9 - Similar to Phase 8, not sure if he has Vanish.
Phase 10 - Similar to the previous phases, pretty sure he has Vanish. This is the tanky phase.
Phase 11 - Low-health final phase. Has all four spells. Literally casting continuously - I watched him for a while and he didn't stop at all.

(this would make for a pretty cool LI boss, just buff his health by 6x or something...)

 

plz no we are enough with charge stack

arrow storming while charge stacking while vanishing is too much for us

 

harder than cybel

 

its a really good boss for its level, you should probably try doing it with a lvl 70 class, it gives you the full effect

 

Oh don't worry, the reason I had an extra Skiens Badge sitting around was because I brought 5 so I could try it with my level 57 Assassin :P becomes much more challenging when Charge can oneshot.

 

i want more raid bosses that arent bs like wybel
things like this that dont rely on 50 high level enemies to make artificial difficulty are nice in my book but personally casting all 4 spells continuously is an unbearable thing i just would not deal with
personally i think 11 phases is too much (we already have martyytytydude idol) so many combine a few phases so it isnt as long?
other than that this is amazing i love it

 

First three phases introduce and spam a spell. Charge, then Multihits, then Arrow Storm. Next three phases use their Heavy variants. Next three phases combine two of each one. Charge and Multihits, Multihits and Arrow Storm, Charge and Arrow Storm. 10th phase doesn't stop casting 'til Vanished. 11th phase never stops casting, but has severely reduced damage...it's basically a panic mode.

His element defenses get slightly worse in each form, gaining a small bit of weakness per form.

Each phase uses a different AI designed to capitalize on that form's ability; for instance his 4th form which uses Heavy Charge is Jumper AI, as when Charge is used in the air the mob travels for longer.

 

Ah, that would explain why his Charge looks different than, say, Robob. Jumper AI is what passive citizens use right?

 

Passive citizens use "none" AI...

"Jumper" means that the mob will constantly jump if applicable. None AI mobs just kinda do whatever.

 

where can i find this guy , i wanna beat the shit out of him

 

Dernel Jungle at the Altar of Sanctification near the Dernel Mansion, to access the altar you need to beat skien your first time on skiens island which is reccomended for players who are level 50-60 in which you have to go through a nightmarish fortress of confusion to find a code, then insert the code to get into the maze, at the end of the maze you will find skien who is NOT easy for his recommended level unless your using locrian or something, if you do beat him you will get his badge, then you can resurrect skien at the altar of sanctification using said badge, which is when you finally get to fight the Revenant of Skien, he is arguably one of the easier boss altars though because as shots said in his latest video he has weaknesses to elements air,water and thunder which just so happen to feature in all of the level 70 legendaries Ethereal,Maelstrom,Chakram and Scythe (Oh yeah after image exists as well). He can drop a hammer which is pretty bad tbh, some armour ingredients based solely around hp, a pretty good bracelet and an awesome pair of +attack speed leggings with no drawbacks except having slightly lower health than normal, I think its for assassins only though for some reason.

 

are you saying orange wybel isnt panic mode with its "run around the room avoiding traps and trying not to get pulled into a pressure plate by the 10+ enemies scattered around"

 

Orange Wybel certainly doesn't continuously cast, even in fifth phase. He's actually just walking around slowly for more than half the time in first/third phases.

 

nono there are so many engines that theres only like 2 seconds in between them casting so its like constant casting. And since theyre there for the sole purpose of spawning the 20+ rowdy wybels its truly a w f u l

 

I mean panic mode for the mob. Think about it, he's inches from death and none of his attacks hurt, so he's just flailing in desperation and hoping you die.

 

in dark souls theres a boss that does this exact same thing. It limps around flailing hoping it kills you. Its meant to make you feel safe after dealing with hell for an entire battle. Personally i feel its pretty neat to have a boss that shows some character in the form of desperation when every other enemy is the same. Maybe it could attack a bit slower than a different spell every second but the idea itself is cool
