Useful Info
Ogre mages are every bit as strong as regular ogres, but possess magic on par with much more magically attuned species. They lead packs of ogres and two-headed ogres, hasting them or pelting you with powerful Conjurations from a distance. Depending on which spell set they generate, they may even be able to send players with low magic resistance to the Abyss. They can occasionally be found in the middle- and late-Dungeon, as well as in the depths of the Orcish Mines.

Tips & Tricks
- By the time you encounter them, their allies shouldn't pose that much threat. While you'll want to avoid letting half a dozen hasted ogres beat on you with giant spiked clubs, you should still focus on taking the mages out as quickly as possible.
- If you know Mephitic Cloud, repeated castings will allow you to confuse the ogre band, causing them to kill each other for you. Even so, if you have access to spells that deal heavy damage to multiple enemies, these will get the job done much faster and more reliably.
