-*Having rC+++, rElec, and better-than-average speed will take a lot of the lethality out of this fight. His [[Flash Freeze]] spell will reduce your speed significantly, however, and the [[deep water]] in his area make kiting difficult. Use [[Translocations]] and keep yourself [[fly]]ing to avoid getting pinned down and pummeled.
+*Having rC+++ and rElec will take a lot of the lethality out of this fight.
-*Antaeus is vulnerable to fire and lacks poison resistance. Anyone can hit him with a [[curare]] [[dart]] to slow him for a decent amount of time. [[Fire Magic]] users should have no trouble piling damage on.
+*Antaeus is vulnerable to fire and lacks poison resistance. [[Curare]] darts are ''very'' effective, allowing you to get a "haste" of sorts in Cocytus. [[Alistair's Intoxication]] can [[confuse]] Antaeus, even through infinite willpower.
 *Try to clear out his Ice Fiend allies before attempting to kill him. While [[Fire Storm]] casters can quickly accomplish both at the same time, others may want to initially flee and then take them on once they've scattered throughout the floor. Taking on that many sources of [[torment]] and high damage all at once is very unwise.
-*It's not impossible to defeat him in melee, but it's certainly risky. High [[AC]] is critical, but less so than high [[EV]] and [[SH]]. Buff yourself as much as possible, call up whatever summons you can, and make sure you've got rC+++ and rElec; you want to avoid as many of his hits as possible, and to take most of the sting out of any that get through.
+*It's not impossible to defeat him in melee, but it's certainly risky. High [[AC]] is critical, but good [[EV]] and [[SH]] are just as important.

-'''Antaeus''' is a [[list of giants|gigantic]] [[demon]] lord who guards the icy [[rune]] in [[Cocytus]]. He has the highest [[HP]] of all normal monsters in the game, and because he cannot summon demonic aid like the other demon lords, he focuses on using his overpowering melee attacks to crush you or [[cold]] and [[Electricity|lightning]] magic when at range. He is found on the bottom floor of [[Cocytus]], usually accompanied by a gang of [[Ice Fiend]]s.

 During the Christmas holiday of 2014 and 2015, Antaeus' home was changed from Cocytus to the [[North Pole]], and he donned a festive hat, fur-lined loincloth, and sack full of (presumably) toys to celebrate. This had no effect on gameplay whatsoever.
