Maybe this is common knowledge, but I never knew that Bonetti was a BOSS that you could FIGHT.

I was screwing around, clearing the map of all foggy areas and I found him, just a little south of Sardelac.

He is a warrior boss (lvl 6) and guess what skill he doesn't use....Bonetti's Defense.

Oh well.

I have gotten 6 or 7 characters past Sardelac (impressive huh?) and this is the first time I have ever seen him. Also, he appeared to be the elementalist character (long blonde hair, same armor etc) with a sword and shield.

Does everyone else know about him already? Am I just a little slow on figuring things out?

He used to use Hundred Blades elite (way back when before the SoC changed)...always showed as a Warrior to me...

He had warrior aura and used warrior skills, but looked like an elementalist

So you can kill Bonetti and Verata... that's warrior and necromancer, do any of the other classes have any '________'s _________' skills with an enemy boss out in the wild somewhere? @_@

Bonetti is fun and all, but I'd say the verata of warriors would probably be galrath.

I was surprised he was so weak. A bit of a disappointment.

There was, but then someone lame just had to use a skill. So he went away.

I'm actually kind of worried he'll be back some day, though...

[Verata spawns where Galrath spawns for Villiany of Galrath... he'll only be there if you DO NOT have the quest]. So there's Galrath, Verata,and Bonetti.... I wanna meet Wastrel! ^^

So.. what is he, a Forum Poster? ;p

I don't think any of the other professions have "celebrity" skills. There are plenty of god references (except Lyssa, dammit), and Elementalists have the Trogdor skills, but.. nothin' else out there you can go and kill and take its stuff.

That'd be a pretty cool fan contest, tho. Come up with 1 or 2 celebrity skills for the other professions, and also a little quest/backstory for the target itself. Or use an existing boss. What about that monk out there with Cry Darkday in Snake Dance? I've never found her attached to any quests, and she's -got- to have a good story if she's hanging around with a shadow boss.

I think that's just Bonetti's son that was named after the real Bonetti. I don't think such a hot skill could have an origin like this lame Elementalist/Warrior/whatever thingy.

Pretty nice to know I can cap Bonetti's Defence early on though, new Warriors love this skill.
