Mysterious shade

The Mysterious shade is a monster found in Daemonheim. It was released along with the Dungeoneering skill.

It uses a mixture of Magic (blue-coloured) and Ranged (green-coloured) attacks, which is powered evenly. Care should be taken when engaging the higher level variants, as these use their attacks with a high accuracy and max hit. It is recommended to wear Range armour to block its attacks. For using prayer against exceptionally strong shades, either use Protect from Range with high Magic-Defence armour, or Protect from Magic with melee armour.

There is a sort of warning for each attack; the shade will surround itself with a blue aura before its magic attack, and a yellow aura before its ranged attack.

This is one of the monsters within Daemonheim that will switch targets when in a multi-combat area, instead of continuing to attack the first player it sees.
