Far more experienced than the other Magi, the Drow Archmage has neared the pinnacle of sorcery, but still naturally submits to his female dictators. Upon seeing you, he sees it as a good opportunity to prove his worth.

Attacks and abilities

The Drow Archmage is a tougher version of the Drow Mage, and possesses all of their spells along with a few of his own. His Dark Aurora spell will give target crits a 25-point poison, and can open inverted Vortex Gates to summon lesser Drow Mages to assist him, who can collectively overpower an ill-prepared party. Unlike the Drow Mages, however, he attacks with a Staff of Power occasionally.

Notes

  • The Drow Archmage appears as a key mini-boss in the Subterranean Waterways, and as a regular (albeit uncommon) monster in the Underground City, but drops only Black Sapphires and Scrolls of Vortex Gate in such appearances.
  • Drow Archmages sit on top of usable Vortex Gates; most of these lead to the Cave of Incompetence, but can otherwise be used to escape quickly.
