Shadow
The fast, lower-HP, high-damage assassin of the PvE pool. Shadow is built around mobility - if you stand still, you die.
Stats (verified)
- Type: Zombie
- Health: 90,000 HP
- Damage: 100 per hit (highest melee in PvE)
Strategy
- Never stand still. Shadow's whole design punishes stationary players; keep moving and strafe between hits.
- Bring a tank. A player in Titan armor draws aggro and benefits from the Strength I passive, while DPS plays at the very edge of melee range.
- Prioritise damage reduction. At 100 damage per hit, Shadow can two-shot an unarmoured player - a high-level armor set's up-to-50% damage reduction is what keeps you alive.
- Burst, do not grind. Shadow's HP pool is lower than the tankier bosses, so a coordinated burst window ends the fight before its damage adds up.
Rewards
Top placement awards Shadow Fragments used to craft the dark Shadow armor set, plus Boss Tokens and crate keys on the standard reward table (top 1-3 earns a Legendary Key; top 4-5 a Rare Key). See the Boss Overview for the full damage table.
The Shadow Armor Set
Shadow Fragments build the dark Shadow Boss Armor set, which carries a Haste I passive every 10 seconds and the Void Step active ability. Because Haste speeds up block-breaking, this is the best mining set on the server - many players grind Shadow specifically to farm a set for resource gathering rather than combat. The passive applies automatically while you wear the full set, so it doubles as a quality-of-life mining tool even outside boss fights.
Recommended Gear
Pair high damage reduction with mobility: a Boss Armor set for survivability, movement-friendly enchants, and healing items to recover between dodges. Save your full-set active for the moment Shadow locks onto you.
