Boss
Medusa
Medusa is a boss of the tank type found in Swamp of Peace.
Lore
Medusa is the boss of Swamp of Peace, a serpent-haired creature that settled into the ruins of the central temple. Before the fall it was a stone statue that pilgrims touched to ask for calm. The rotten mana brought the stone to life, but not its heart, and the sanctuary of peace gained a guardian who leaves a garden of statues wherever she goes.
She is a tank: her skin still holds something of stone and endures a great deal. She lets the serpents on her head hiss as she advances, and when she truly opens her eyes she unleashes Petrifying Gaze, a green glare that sweeps across the marsh. Defeating her opens the road to the fires of Vulcanus.
Special attack
Petrifying Gaze: every 4 attacks, Medusa hits for 168% of its normal damage and ignores 15% of your defense. Loot focus: Armor (Standard).

Drops
As a boss, Medusa drops equipment up to Ancient, sometimes from the family after the one the map's monsters drop, and has a higher chance of jewels (Bless, Soul, Chaos). See the item list by class on the map's page: Swamp of Peace.

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).
