A few notes:

1. The Lich uses Unholy Feast and Strip Enchantment.

2. I was not using Mending.

3. The Dead Bow was 14-27 damage, req. 11, no bonuses.

4. It took approximately 15 minutes with degen and lifesteal, and it would have been faster had not a dumb Monk with a headache gotten repeatedly killed.

o [email protected], my intrpt h4xs had a kelgger incripted, im' scrooed!

Just kidding, but since this guy counts as an undead, he just might drop that 15^50 Sephis after 20 minutes of tedious condition-spamming madness to the guy that wasn't really doing anything...

Isn't he suppose to be an Undead Lich - so maybe he is only technically dead if you kill him on that blood stone so his energy can be used to recharge the stone instead of self-res.

I'm glad he didn't drop an awesome gold item or something. That'd gave me nightmares about me spamming "LFG: 5-man Lich Farming!"..

Good job though! ^^

He should've dropped the Sceptor of Orr. It would be the ultimate minion master weapon.

I was thinking more along the lines of using it to summon half a dozen Smoke Phantoms from a single corpse. . . . But yes, +1 energy regen would be awesome too.

When he was over half health, my shadow strike would show "-0 -50". The damage was 0, but the life steal worked.

I didn't take my screenshot of the dead lich, but i did find Savio's popularity upon our return to town to be rather amusing. The guy just can't go out in public without being recognized anymore.

Nice one [Rare], to find this little trick.

I'm so confused, can someone show me where the Lich spawns in Abbadon's? Can you just go and engage him or is there something special you have to do to keep him in combat?

at the end of the mission, after you kill the seals, you fight a glitched titan. if you walk past him, towards where the merchants and xunlai agent would be in hell's precipece, you will find vizier khlaiborn or whatever & the lich.

viz friendly npc, lich enemy.

The Lich is by far the hardest monster in the game.

We hit him with:

Life Transfer x2
Life Siphon x2
Conjure Phantasm
Bleeding
Poison
Disease
Weakness
Vamp Gaze x3 (but without Awaken, because he was using Strip Enchantment)
Shadow Strike x2
Plus whatever Savio and X were doing up close..??

I don't think he ever actually degened, we just managed to stop his natural regen of +8 billion. He has enough hit points to eat Glint for lunch and then some.

We'd hit him with VG x3 and his health bar would move like 1 pixel. Oh for the love of God...

He uses Strip Enchantment and Unholy Feast, but X was often able to Disrupt those.

Oh, and he hits for ~120 (seriously) with his Staff, the Staff of Orr.

I was mainly using Vamp Gaze and Barbed Signet, since Shadow Strike isn't worth it if the extra shadow damage doesn't hit. Vamp Gaze and Barbed Signet were each stealing 63, while Shadow Strike only stole 55. I'd throw up Life Siphon/Transfer when I had the energy, but it seems like spamming Gaze/Barbed did more damage in the long run.

I think a three necro team with either Life Transfer or Virulence, Blood Is Power, and Grenth's Balance for their elites would probably work better. Life Transfer/Virulence to help counter his regen, Blood Is Power to keep people's energy up in the absence of Soul Reaping, and Grenth's Balance to really put the whammy down--provided it works.

With a Diversion mesmer we'd be able to keep Awaken the Blood and Blood Is Power on us as well, since it wouldn't be getting stripped constantly. The mesmer could also stack some degen with Conjure Phantasm and the like.

lol well methinks it might be a good idea to go back in with degen migrane would also be a help to ensure interrupts After all, if they can do it, mesmers must be able to

Really? I've always found that he seems stuck in place. I has simply never occurred to me to try to kill him.
