Adventure Guide
Once charged with hunting game for his master's feasts, Attumen now sets his sights on a very different kind of quarry. Ever wary of those seeking to steal his famed steed, Midnight, Attumen unleashes his well-honed fighting skills against all intruders.
Overview
Attumen fights from the saddle until Midnight has her health reduced to 50%. At this point Midnight and Attumen will fight separately for a short while. Midnight will regain her health, then Attumen will remount and fight from the saddle once again.

Abilities
Horse and Rider as One
Attumen begins the fight astride his faithful steed, Midnight.
- Intangible Presence — The caster summons a specter to haunt their enemies. This specter will inflict 200000 Shadow damage to all players every 2 sec. until it is dispelled. Dispelling the wrong player will result in all players taking 555000 to 645000 Shadow damage instead.
- Mighty Stomp — Midnight rears up, then stomps down with her front hooves. All players within 30 yards suffer 277500 to 322500 Fire damage and have any spells interrupted for 4 sec.
- Spectral Charge — The caster summons forth a line of spectral horses to charge across the battlefield. Any players caught in their path suffer 1850000 to 2150000 Shadow damage.
Fighting on Foot
When Midnight has her health reduced, Attumen dismounts and fights on foot until Midnight's health regenerates.
- Mezair — Midnight raises her front hooves and charges forward, inflicting 555000 to 645000 Fire damage to all enemies in a cone in front of her.
- Mortal Strike — Attumen swings his sword in an overhead chop. All enemies within 12 yards in front of Attumen take Physical damage and have their maximum health reduced to 50% of normal.
