The spectral warrior shimmers for an instant, seemingly half real and half phantom, his semi-ethereal armor faintly gleaming as it moves. A gaunt face stares out from beneath the ghostly helm, his eyes swirling pits of blackness that seek out living foes, hatefully wishing to resign others to his own horrible fate.[1]
Hunting strategies
Spectral Warriors can be insanely easy or an extreme pain in the rear, depending on your luck. This is due to their ability to their ability to disarm, their tendency to "phase out" when attacked, and the heavy armor they wear (brig, chain, or plate).
If you can hunt without a weapon or runestaff in your hand, it is advisable that you do so to avoid their disarming and the twenty second roundtime that comes with it. If that is not possible, use a cheap weapon with Elemental Blade (411) cast on it or some other weapon you will not miss if lost. Many an adventurer has lost a prized weapon to this beast.
The spectral warrior's ability to "phase out" is always triggered by either a spell or physical attack that is targeted at them, wasting your mana and/or sticking you in roundtime while they avoid your attack and remain unattackable until they phase back in. This can be nullified by casting Phase (704) at them. This will keep them rooted in the physical realm, saving you from wasting mana or swings when they suddenly disappear on you.
Heavy weapons, warding spells, and voln fu all work well against spectral warriors while light weapons, ranged weapons, and most bolt spells are not reccomended due to their heavy armor. Even voln fu users will experience some difficulty against the spectral warriors in chain or plate.
