Adventure Guide

The Jailer's relentless beast, the Tarragrue, has stalked the halls of Torghast since its first spire was raised. Countless victims have felt their souls trampled to ash by this monstrosity, which now awaits the mortal champions breaching the threshold of the tower.

Overview

Infused Goliaths defend the outer perimeter before The Tarragrue, offering potent Anima Powers when defeated.

In battle, The Tarragrue attempts to pick off defenseless targets with Chains of Eternity while gathering power. Upon reaching 100 energy, The Tarragrue dissolves into Torghast's Hungering Mist and stalks its prey with a series of crushing assaults.

At 10% health remaining, the Jailer removes Anima Powers from all players and sends The Tarragrue into a wild frenzy.

  • Remnant of Forgotten Torments — The Jailer calls down the memory of a forgotten Torment, which assaults players until it is absorbed. In Mythic difficulty, the Jailer summons forth two forgotten Torments and their afflictions on players last until The Tarragrue is defeated.
    • Remnant: Upper Reaches' Might — The Might of the Upper Reaches increases Physical damage done by the Jailer's forces by 50%. A player may lessen this effect by absorbing some of the Torment. This causes the player to take 10% increased Physical damage for 1.5 min.

    • Remnant: Soulforge Heat — Soulforge Heat periodically inflicts 22042 Fire damage to all players. A player may lessen this effect by absorbing some of the Torment. This causes the player to take 8 Fire damage every 5 sec for 10 min.
  • Predator's Howl — The Tarragrue howls, causing an aura of dread to form around players for 21 sec. This causes each target to radiate Unshakeable Dread to other players within 5 yds every 3 sec.
