Monster

Dark Shadow Master

Dark Shadow Master is a monster of the agile type found in Swamp of Destruction.

Lore

The Dark Shadow Master is a master of shadows dwelling in the mist of the Swamp of Destruction, the marsh where rotten mana gathers like mud. It once led an order of scouts that watched the bog's borders, until the swamp's darkness taught it to shed its body whenever it wished.

Agile and elusive, it attacks in packs with other figures of the mist, appearing and vanishing among the rotting trees. Its strikes are quick and light, but they come by surprise, and a distracted hero soon finds himself surrounded by shadows.

On Hard items drop as Nightmare (+40% to flat attributes and +30% to % bonuses); on Hardcore they also drop as Nightmare, and once in a while, very rarely, a Godlike (+80%) comes, delivered by letter.

Special enemies pay more: the Elite drops an item 38% of the time, the Champion 70% and the Ancient Monster 100%; Champion and Ancient Monster raise the item's rarity by 1 level. The jewel chance is 2× on the Elite, 4× on the Champion and 8× on the Ancient Monster. Each Reset also raises the jewel chance a little. See Special enemies (PT).
