New Monsters Review, Part I 9:27pm EST - The Silent Spearman

Banderling Strikers

These cast Imperil IV, Bludgeon Vuln IV, Slowness IV, Clumsiness IV, and Shock Wave IV and V. Their melee skills are low, however, and their HP is managable, except for the fact that they can also cast Heal Self IV and Drain Health IV. If you want a challenging Banderling, there you go. XP is about 3,600.

Banderling Berserkers

Very high attack power but no magic. They depend on the Imperil and Vulns of the Strikers to hurt you, basically, as with my full buffs at LV 35 they can only it me for about 4-8 a shot. Higher HP. XP is about 5,100.

Banderling Thrashers

Thrashers No magic that I can see, but they have very high melee skills and about 400 HP, as well as high defense. They depend on the help of the Banderling Enforcers to kill you. XP is unknown since I could only get one to 1/2 health before I ran out of stamina.

Banderling Enforcers

Give me a break...Cold Vuln V, Imperil VI, and Frost Bolt V and VI. Never even bothered getting close to these, XP unknown.

Altered Drudge

Uses lightning, I haven't seen these yet.

Malus Shreth

Pumped up replacement for Vorous that gives about 4,100XP for your trouble but is also harder to kill.

Skeleton Bone Knight

LV III Acid Vuln's and Imperils, but VERY high melee skills and ridiculous defense from the front (where their shield is). I hit these for 1-3 from the front with my Atlan buffed with LV 4's. Never killed one..

Skeleton Bone Lord

Lower melee skills but they fire Imperil V, Acid Vuln V like it's nobody's business. They also have fairly high defense. Never killed one.

Great Skeleton

I just run. Weakness, Slowness, and Clumsiness VI, along with (I assume) Imperil VI, Acid Vuln VI, and Acid Bolt VI. These guys are insane.

Diamond Golem

Supposedly requiring many men to take down, they should have said many melee's, since I have screenshots of one getting owned by a LV 38 Mage.. 25-30k XP/kill, probably insane LV 6 Jewelry and high value gems, possibly diamond scarabs.

Extos Lugians

LV 104 and I still own them. Nothing but Melee here, high defense but so what? Easy 8k XP for a 35th LV Melee. Loot reeks though, as far as I can tell.

Does anyone have anything to add?
