Whilst in Jaga Moraine, after completing the quest Prenuptual Agreement, I happened upon an incubus boss named Edielh Shockhunter in the location of Ssissth the Leviathan. I knew he was a boss for text appeared telling me to defeat him and he had the red outline of an Elementalist boss. He didn't use any skills while we did battle but he did drop an Incubus Wing. Upon his death, I attempted to capture his Elementalist applicable elite. To my chagrin, it would seem he was not an Elementalist after all. Nor was he a Warrior, Assassin or Paragon. I could find no information about him in the forums or on either of the Guild Wars wikis. I took a screen shot of him while fighting and I noticed where he should have wing membranes, he had the sort of lines you see before he's been fully rendered - if that makes sense. Is he new? Is he a glitch? Has anyone else had the mysterious encounter with him?

That's kind of strange, might be a bug.

However as for the attempt to get his elite, correct me if I'm wrong, but you were a W/P in that picture. If you used a signet of capture on him, it wouldn't work. Did your elementalist friend Sakura try too?

very weird... went to search it in both wikis and there isn't anything on them...

nice finding. try to farm it because if he doesn't attack you he is a good thing :P

Shockhunter confirmed. I think he's lack of capture signet loot is a more serious, but highly amusing, bug. He's got no skills whatsoever. He'll simply attack via wand.

Edielh's Focus, his drop, is a 20/20 air offhand, greenish tinted storm artifact.

That's unusual, but thanks for posting about it. I went to try get his green with H/H and got it first try.

I suppose this is one of the failed fleshweaver creations.
