'''Eidolons''' are insubstantial [[undead]] monsters, similar to [[wraith]]s but stronger. Their melee attacks are both [[draining]] branded and cause random [[stat]] damage. They can also magically terrify you, making you unable to move closer to the eidolon for some time. They are found in [[the Abyss]], as well as several [[Crypt]] endings.

Cause Fear can be resisted with high [[magic resistance]]. Even if it isn't resisted, it is rarely that much of a threat, although it can occasionally cause a dangerous lack of mobility, particularly in the Abyss. Luckily, Cause Fear does not affect your ability to attack these monsters in melee once they approach.

Spells

Spell set I

Slot2 Cause Fear Magical flag

Tips & Tricks

  • Pile on the negative energy resistance when dealing with these guys, as Cause Fear coupled with Bolt of Draining can result in heavy amounts of draining very quickly.
    • Being undead makes you immune to both of their spells, rendering them little more than slightly dangerous melee threats that can potentially slow you.
  • Cause Fear can be resisted with very high willpower. This can be critical if you lack the means to defeat them quickly at range.
    • Many summons lack good willpower and will struggle to get close to eidola.
  • Silence doesn't stop these guys from casting, so don't expect that silent spectre you have following you around to provide any assistance.

History

  • Prior to 0.33, eidola had a stat draining attack.
  • Prior to 0.13, eidola would drain your experience with their melee attacks. This change accompanied the 0.13 overhaul to draining effects. They also gained Bolt of Draining.
