How Much Energy Does A Boss Have?

Does anyone know how much energy a boss creature has? Is it depending on their level or is it just infinite?

I've seen a monk boss cast heal/prot spells continuously for 10 minutes without running out of energy...Is this normal?

Thanks for any reply

Its normal.

Enemy AI has weird energy numbers. Its hard to pindown - and you can't trust mesmer spells like Energy Burn. I've heard reports of Energy Burn not taking the max energy off (8) - but the enemy turning around and instantly casting a high energy cost spell right after they supposedly had no energy.

Other monsters spam exhaustion spells with no regret.

Its pretty safe to assume that Exhuastion doesn't effect them, and either they dont have defined energy pool, or their energy regen is so high, energy is never a problem.

yeah i belive they have near infinate energy.

i belive they also have double skills, as they only have ones of their proffesion.

my mate managed to steal one bhrons orison of healings, but bhron kept using it, then my mate stole another one can anyone tell me if this is true (double skill sets)?

Some monsters have dual professions.

And Some monsters double up on certain skills.

Some monsters have dual elites too ( Snarling Driftwoods in FoW )

hehe yea double professions ownz!

Smites run out of energy

You can steal the same skill twice from one enemy, if I remember correctly.

I'm pretty sure all NPCs have infinite energy.
One time in the Tomb of Primeval Kings I was playing an energy draining/interrupt ranger and kept taking more and more energy off of a ghost ele that was spamming stuff like fireball and firestorm, and interrupting them. It never stopped casting. He must have lost at least 500 energy from spells and my drains by the time he died.

But they aren't bosses =D

Most bosses DO have a limit to energy, but I heard/read that they have stupidly high regeneration when it comes to energy.

Only way to shut them down from casting is interrupting and blacking them out I guess.

if a bosses health can go up to almost 2-3k im prety sure their energy is damn high, also it seems to me that bosses have some regen on their health, i would asume that their energy has regen aswell

They can run out of energy if they spam enough Exhaustion causing spells.

i think the life regen is between +3-5, take your ordinary wammo to meet a boss, get high swordmanship (the higher the better) take sever with you and find a boss, hit him several times, making sure there is a visible space between his current life and his max life, then use sever and stop atacking, if while he atacks you, you see that his life regens, then he has more than +3 life regen, if he doesnt regen then he has either exactly 3 or less.

Go into Grenths Footprint and find Yakslapper - Attack each of his group in turn (but don't kill them) until he casts Life Attunement on each of his 4 party members. Now go and attack him. You will notice that he now casts orison of healing exactly every 15 seconds - pretty good evidence that he has 5 pips of energy regen.

faction bosses have 3 health regen, I know because i used sever in my 55 everthorn farm build. Sever exactly countered his regen.

Every boss has +3 health regeneration.

They all have limited energy, except maybe for Mursaat..

Try putting Spirit Shackles (or whatever the skill which takes away 5 mana from attack was called) on a monk boss and let him attack. He will eventually run out of mana.

Except special ones. Some bosses are famous for having stupidly high hp or hp regen. (this is too hidden)

As for energy - some bosses actually DO NOT get effected (it seems) in the least by spamming exhaustion skills (immune to exhaustion?).

What is confirmed, is that they DO have a definate Energy pool. You can make them run out of energy.

I tested just now on Zarnas Stonewrath. Didnt take any warriors, so he didnt use Teinei's Wind or Shockwave, just Gale/Stone Daggers/Aura. To make things simple. He used Gale like twice this time. It took him about a minute and a half (didnt stop watch it, just going off estimates) to use up his energy supply (waiting inbetween stone daggers shows this), and It took him like 2 secs to recharge up enough for stone daggers.

if you want to test energy regen on bosses i suggest
wither + malaise + ether lord
necro elite curse, necro curse and mesmer inpiration hex respectively
