Useful Info
An apis is a rare yak-type monster. They are mostly restricted to holy Pandemonium levels and Ziggurat floors, though they can also be found in a holy-themed Shoals:4 vault. They behave like all yaks, moving into melee range and hitting surprisingly hard with their holy horns (especially dangerous to undead or demonspawn characters).
Tips & Tricks
- Think of them as death yaks but stronger, particularly if you're vulnerable to holy damage.
Trivia
The apis was a sacred bull worshiped in ancient Egypt.
