-These opponents are capable of dealing obscene damage, especially to the living or poorly armored, and should be prepared for accordingly.
+These opponents always spawn equipped with shadow dragon scales, kite shields, and double swords. They are thus capable of withstanding and dealing obscene amounts of damage (with 73 to 81 damage melee damage attacks!) after they haste and might themselves, especially to the living or poorly armoured, and should be prepared for accordingly.

 Initially, the outer graveyard is empty except for a multitude of gravestones. These will be gradually replaced with monsters as you explore. The door leading to the inner chamber will only appear after enough of these monsters have been killed. Once inside, you'll be attacked by several more skeletal warriors, and beyond them, you'll find the grave of Zonguldrok.
