Useful Info

Tips & Tricks
- Agony is basically torment, so it hurts a lot. A potion of lignification gives immunity to this spell. Having high willpower reduces the chance of it affecting you.
- Watch out for Injury Mirror - it's often a good idea to stop attacking the knight during Injury Mirror. Check for the status icon (or the status text in console) to make sure it ends. Also note that lasting effects, e.g. poison and clouds, count as your damage for their duration.
History
- Prior to 0.18, death knights could cast Haunt, and could not be found in the Dungeon.
- Prior to 0.17, death knights could cast Drain Life and Animate Dead instead of Agony and Haunt.
- Death knights replaced deep dwarf death knights in 0.15.
