'''Tengu reavers''' are one of the more dangerous [[list of tengu|tengu]] opponents you can encounter. They are competent swordsmen and capable [[Conjurations]]-users which usually pelt you with powerful elemental spells after calling up a [[battlesphere]]. They can be found in the deepest levels of [[the Dungeon]] and [[the Vaults]]. If you see them in any other place, [[Sojobo]] could be near.

*Luring them into a narrow hallway will disable the support their battlespheres provide. Also, the battlesphere will die the moment you take out the reaver which summoned it, so you should generally avoid wasting attacks on it.

*They can cast high damage spells of the 6 "main" elements. Unless you're resistant to everything, don't expect to get out of the fight unscathed. A 3d26 damage spell might not seem like a lot, but 1-2 good rolls can quickly turn things sour.

*They're capable of casting magic of any element, so unless you're resistant to everything, don't expect to get out of the fight unscathed. Fortunately, they're not resistant to any of their own spells; don't be surprised if they kill themselves while trying to blast you with area of effect spells in melee.

*Repel Missiles can be [[dispel|dispelled]]. This isn't very useful for the [[wand of quicksilver]], but [[Yara's Violent Unravelling]] never misses and can damage the target and any adjacent foes.

Useful Info

Tengu reavers are the most dangerous tengu opponents you can encounter. They are competent swordsmen and capable Conjurations-users which usually pelt you with powerful bolt spells, while you will find your own ranged attacks failing to hit due to their repulsion. They can be found in the Vaults and Depths, and are often found in the company of Sojobo.

Spells

Spell set I
Slot1 Venom Bolt (3d21) Wizard flag
Slot2 Bolt of Fire (3d26) Wizard flag
Slot3 Bolt of Cold (3d26) Wizard flag
Slot4 Corrosive Bolt (3d24) Wizard flag
Slot5 Lightning Bolt (3d22) Wizard flag

Tips & Tricks

  • They can cast high damage spells of the 6 "main" elements. Unless you're resistant to everything, don't expect to get out of the fight unscathed. A 3d26 damage spell might not seem like a lot, but 1-2 good rolls can quickly turn things sour.
  • They have low willpower for where they are found, so all sorts of Hexes and hex wands can work well.
  • Repel Missiles can be dispelled. This isn't very useful for the wand of quicksilver, but Yara's Violent Unravelling never misses and can damage the target and any adjacent foes.
