Putrid Grave Warden Duelist

Description

This boss will build the Scarlet Rot debuff with each attack, and it’s also capable of spewing Scarlet Rot from its mouth, directed in a cone shape in front of it. The most deadly attack from this boss occurs if it manages to grab you. A snake will then emerge from the boss and bite your head, instantly inflicting Scarlet Rot and a massive amount of damage. The damage from the attack alone will likely be enough to kill you in one hit if you don’t have much health, but if you do manage to survive the hit you’ll want a Preserving Boluses at the ready to cure the Scarlet Rot. You can parry most of the attacks from the boss, but they will often form part of lengthy combos which can easily eat away at your stamina. A ranged class will find this one easy to kite, but a melee class will need to pay more attention to openings for attack after attack combos.
