Strategy

This fight is rather easy as the other mages in the room will help in the fight, provided they did not get killed earlier. Even without them, Shah Wyrd fights like any other rage demon. Warmth balms and armor (or crystals, in Shale's case) with fire resistance can be used to lessen the damage from its attacks.

Like any other rage demon, Shah Wyrd is vulnerable to cold damage (taking about 50% greater damage) and immune to fire.

Notable loot

Yusaris

Note: Loot the body of Shah Wyrd first, at which point the body will become a Pile of Rags and go on to drop Yusaris.
