ðĨI Maalik The Forsaken
Stag Location
The stag can be found on the left tower from spawn, you'll see some ladders. Once you climb those ladders directly head behind on another set of ladders where you'll find the Demonic Stag.
Lore
In the annals of celestial history, there exists a tale of Maalik The Forsaken, once hailed as the Forsaken Angel. Cast from the lofty heights of his divine station, he now prowls the infernal realms, a pawn ensnared by the machinations of Hell itself. The echoes of his anguish resound still, a haunting lamentation born from the corruption of his once immaculate soul, now steeped in the depths of hatred and despair.
Stats
Maalik The Forsaken has two stages, each having 15k HP, and do notice normal arrows do not work on progression bosses! His path finding goes for the nearest target which makes killing him in a party of geared people easier. His claw attack does though stop and lock in enemies so be careful of that one. One if his strongest attacks is the Seismic Smash which does 40 damage to players in radius of 3 near him. His sword attack damage ranges from 25-35 depending on what attack pattern he uses. (long hit, short hit). Finally he has a summon attack where he can summon two different Demon Minions.
Ranged Minion
These guys can shoot up to 25 of dmg per arrow and have 150 HP. Do be careful as Maalik can spawn two of these guys.
Meele Minion
These guys can deal up to 23 damage per hit and have 300 HP. Do be careful as Maalik can spawn multiple of these guys. Very annoying during the fight a good way to counter them is to assign a weaker party member to clear them.
Recommended Gear
It's recommend to either have a party of Stage II players if you're taking him on early game. If you wish to try to solo it we truly do recommend Stage III gear, the further down Stage III the easier it will get. He's pretty tankable in Amber, while very survivable in Malachite. Make sure to have Unbreaking VI, EXP pots and Mending as your gear in early stages is easily broken by this boss.
Drops
Each Progression Boss has their own weapon with custom mechanics and stats. Maalik The Forsaken is no different. He drops Maalik's Sword. This weapon is not the original sword he carries with him but his true sword he had before the demonification process.
Weapon Stats
Each boss weapon have margines in which the weapon damage and other stats scale. Maalik's Sword has a couple of different stats.
