'''Guardian mummies''' behave much like regular [[mummy (monster)|mummies]], shuffling into melee with you and attacking as best they can. Unlike standard mummies they can hit hard, move nearly as fast as the average character, have no particular weakness to fire damage, and pack a much more exciting [[death curse]]. They are found in or guarding [[the Tomb]], as well as in certain undead [[vault]]s.

Useful Info

Guardian mummies behave much like regular mummies, shuffling into melee, with stronger melee attacks. Unlike plain mummies, killing a guardian mummy causes a debilitating death curse. They are found in or guarding the Tomb, as well as in certain undead vaults.

Tips & Tricks

  • If possible, try to lure them to relatively isolated, already cleared areas first; noise travels far in the Tomb, and you don't want to find yourself slowed or tormented while facing down a dozen angry mummies.
  • Being undead (through species or Death Form) will take much of the sting out of their death curse. However, undead creatures can still be slowed.
