Corpse Monstrosity

The Corpse Monstrosity is a boss from the Wrath of the Dragon campaign. It is the first real boss that Geir the Righteous must deal with in his introduction level. The Monstrosity is a decent challenge, especially for those who go into the fight without expect to be challenged.

Lore

The Corpse Monstrosity is an amalgamation of several different corpses expunged from the Midscott Cemetery. The Monstrosity is created as a distraction by the Necromancer Valkhel Blightscorn, as he he being hunted down by the Paladin, Geir the Righteous. The Corpse Monstrosity is also gifted with a small amount of Valkhel's necromantic powers, and is able to raise corpses from the graveyard itself, albeit temporarily.

Boss Battle

The Corpse Monstrosity's boss battle is a fairly simple, but challenging fight. The boss is slow and hits hard, but it very aggressive, and will follow Geir around, no matter where he goes in the graveyard. The boss's slow movement speed is necessary to make the fight fair, as it leaves plague clouds in it's wake as it moves around, which will leave a nasty DoT affect on Geir if he remains in one place for too long. On top of this, the Monstrosity will summon small groups of Risen Shamblers periodically. These adds also move slow and hit hard, and will stun Geir if they attack him. These adds must be kited around as they only have a limited lifespan, so trying to kill them is too risky and time wasting.
