Bruh this boss is broken, absolutely no way to win unless you know exactly what it can do and have well-prepared specifically to fight it.

Do not download unless you have some very powerful custom classes install, as fighting it with vanilla heroes is nigh-impossible.

This boss is very poorly designed. It has decent art but there is no balance whatsoever.

If you insist on using this mod, either edit the stats yourself or wait for a third party rebalance patch. It's not worth installing otherwise

Wtf is this boss for real? It is not possible to beat him unless you have a stun to prevent him from spawning his familiar, which he strictly does every turn on his 1st action. This guy alone has practically screwed up my bloodmoon run before I figured out the things above.

Works on existing save files?

as quest boss is strong but you still can manage with specialized party, but as roaming boss is a big no no
im with one of the comment, you should tone down this mod yourself (coz the creator is nowhere to be found) with:
1. reduce action per turn to the boss
2. halved the summoned hp
those tune make this boss sorta manageable as roaming mob

I'd suggest clearing the map first before trying to do the boss, its a fixed map with a bunch of combat rooms and the boss room is the middle room of the 3 at the top. Also, this boss surprises your party when encountered, so swap their positions beforehand.

As for other users having crashes with this mod, I'd suggest bumping up its load order and reading other mods descriptions(they could create conflicts with this one), as I had no problems with it and I have 100+ mods in my save.

Nice mod, boss is a bit too much for having it roam the Cove, but the quest itself is fun.

For people having problems with it, keep in mind that while it has 3 actions per round, 1 of them is spent spawning 1 dude (which should not be much of a problem to kill quickly, bring shieldbreaker or someone that can debuff prot, it has almost no debuff resist), and it has very low stun resistance (for its difficulty), so any class with a +stun chance trinket should keep it at 2 actions per turn(as the stun resistance goes away on its third action).
Its stress attack inflicts horror, so having laudanum buff your -%stress given is good.
If you manage to kill both dudes (it spawns another if you kill the first one), it will waste another action healing itself, and if you do this quickly, it will have a +20% damage recieved debuff, so it should fall easily.
Bring a man at arms to protect your party because it likes to target 1 character with its maw attack(big damage).

Tried facing this boss 5 times, all times being forced to retreat without bringing it to half health even. Boss is harder than most champion level bosses in base game. Overtuned, don't download since it will only lead to pain.

The boss is broken, don't download.
