Frenzied Shade

Frenzied Shade is a ghost that haunts the Champion’s Grave. It rises when the Old Champion's Remains dies, so the two are fought back to back. Killing both completes the Defeat The Old Champion quest in the Soulslike Champions chapter.

Its Essence of Eventide is the item that summons the Fallen Icon.

Location#

The Frenzied Shade doesn’t spawn on its own. It appears where the Old Champion’s Remains dies, at the Champion’s Grave in taigas or at an Old Moon Altar where the champion was summoned.

Stats#

The Frenzied Shade has a level floor of 60: it takes the nearest player’s Soulrend level, but never less than 60. See Mob Levels.

Its health and armor come from the Soulslike Weaponry boss config. It is immune to fire. Instant Health harms it and Instant Damage heals it.

Attacks#

Strategy#

• No damage cap. Unlike the champion before it, the Shade can be burst down.
• Its armor is low. At 2 base armor, raw damage works well.
• Shields work. Unlike most Soulslike bosses, it doesn’t disable shields.

Drops#

Using the Essence of Eventide on an Old Moon Altar summons the Fallen Icon.

Quests#

Defeat The Old Champion (Soulslike Champions) requires killing both the Old Champion’s Remains and the Frenzied Shade, and holding the Lord Soul and the Essence of Eventide. Rewards: two rolls on the Flawed Gems reward table and one on the Rare Loot reward table.
