Behaviour
- Charges
- Multiplies its movement speed while closing mid-range distance, then drops back to base speed on contact. Freezing effects are the only reliable brake.
- Heavy
- Slow to turn and slow to reposition, but absorbs far more punishment than its tier suggests. Kiting works; trading blows does not.
- Boss
- Attacks on a 0.7-second cadence instead of the standard 1.1, and announces itself in the message log on spawn. One instance may be alive in its region at a time.

Location
The Eternal Warlord spawns inside the Ashen Battlefield, a region of radius 21 centred on 440, -300. It occupies slot 3 of 3 on that spawn table, and being a unique boss it clears only 0.6% of rolls — and only when no other instance is alive. It shares the table with 3 other creatures.
Others on this spawn table
- Revenant Soldier 260 HP
- Siege Hound 320 HP
- Fallen Vanguard 250 HP
Strategy
- Fight in contact or from well outside its approach band; the middle distance is where it doubles speed.
- Kite it. Trading blows with 7,600 hitpoints on the other side is a losing race.
- Only one may be alive in the region at a time — clear the trash first so nothing adds mid-fight.
- At 118 a hit, two connected swings will end most unarmoured players. Armour matters more than damage here.
