A hideous translucent green spirit of a warrior fallen in battle but recalled to this plane by unholy magic. The blade it wields is ethereal, passing easily through shields and armour, and rendering those it strikes more susceptible to magic.

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, and their attacks completely ignore shields and are only affected by half of your AC. They are occasionally found in the Depths, the Vaults, and the Crypt.

Tips & Tricks

  • Although not tremendously powerful, their ability to ignore your defenses makes it difficult for any character to consider them harmless. Be especially careful facing them around anything that casts spells which are affected by your magic resistance!
  • You can summon your own phantasmal warriors with the Haunt spell.

History

Prior to 0.13, phantasmal warriors were fairly ordinary melee opponents with draining-branded attacks. Prior to 0.9 they were called spectral warriors.
