Other information

Looting the liches is tricky. First, when you kill a lich, there is something like a 50/50 chance that it doesn't leave a body. Second, each lich drops a phylactery upon death; if the lich leaves a body, the phylactery must be destroyed before you can loot it. Any attempt to do so beforehand fails and gives you RT. Destroying the phylactery involves attacking or bashing it with some sort of weapon, a process that requires significant RT. The amount of damage done to the phylactery and the amount of RT incurred depends on the heft of the weapon used. I pull out a runestaff, which takes three to four attacks at 5-7 seconds each. If you dally in destroying the phylactery, the lich will return to life at full health about 30 seconds after its death. Even if you manage to destroy the phylactery, the lich can still decay before you get a chance to loot it if you took too long.
