Useful Info

Phantasmal warriors are aggressive incorporeal undead with magic resistance-debuffing melee attacks. They often blink closer to you to engage in melee as rapidly as possible. They are occasionally found in the Depths, the Vaults, and the Crypt.

History

• Prior to 0.17, phantasmal warriors' attacks "pierced" through shields and armour, ignoring SH and only being subject to half of your AC.
• Prior to 0.13, phantasmal warriors were fairly ordinary melee opponents with draining-branded attacks.
• Prior to 0.9, they were called spectral warriors.
