Description

Phantoms have the look of partially translucent giant squids floating through the air. They roam portions of the Ring of Fire Islands in small groups but sometimes also appear solitary out of thin air. When defeated they vanish into nothing, without leaving a corpse behind. They neither deal nor receive much damage, but their ability to blind and interrupt can become very annoying.

• Drain Enchantment

Notes

• Phantoms take double damage from Holy damage, but they are not Undead.
• Beware that their AI is capable of interrupting even the fastest caster of all times. This can be used to your advantage though. Cast meaningless spells first (any attunement spell or a cheap spell) and save the important spells for later. Unfortunately, if you attack a pack of five phantoms, this means that the first 10 attempts to cast will result in a near certain failure.
• Try to avoid clumping casters together so that Cry of Frustration only interrupts the victim and nothing more.
