Dark Monster

A shadow-cloaked guardian of the Grove — strong, and never fights alone if it can help it.

Base Reward

+35 Gold+40 EXP

Can pay out more in a region a high-level player discovered first.

Behavior

Guards the Grove and supports its own kind — hitting one pulls in every other nearby Dark Monster to retaliate together, so approach a cluster carefully. Attacking one also leaves you unable to heal for a short time afterward, so don't count on out-healing a prolonged fight.

Drops

• Dark Essence — Chance

Best Gear

Axe deals extra damage; Breastplate blocks extra damage.
