Risen Bioscholars are Abominations crafted by the Withered Aegis out of dead parts of other undead creatures, animals, or even members of the Living Races. They are rarely found alone, often leading a pack of two to four other undead. Possible companions include Defiled Shades, Risen Researchers, and Twisted Automatons.

Location[edit]

There is one spawn point near a fort in a circle of spikes west-southwest of Delgarath 27294/26915(map), another in the Forward Encampment south of Delgarath 28629/26793(map), and a third in a pit just to the northwest of Delgarath 28099/27411(map) in the Rachival Proving Grounds.

The first spawn point is the easier hunting spot of the three, usually spawning only the bioscholar and its followers. The second and third spawn points also include spawns unrelated to the bioscholar.

Respawn time is between three and five minutes.

Tactics[edit]

The bioscholar's companions are generally more dangerous than the bioscholar itself. Risen Researchers are healers, so they are best taken out quickly to stop them from healing back damage done to the others. Defiled Shades have stuns; depending on your abilities, you may want to take them out first. Twisted Automatons can generally be saved for last, they have more health than the other two monsters and do not have the same degree of problematic abilities. The automatons are, however, immune to Slash damage.

Almost all damage taken during the fight will be Slash or Blight damage. If a Defiled Shade is present, Energy damage will also be in the mix. Spells with the Cleanse technique will be helpful to dispell DoTs and debuffs like Misery's Company.

If mez abilities are available, you may wish to mez the bioscholar while you take care of his group. Be aware that new adds can spawn while you are fighting the bioscholar, take them out quickly then return to the bioscholar.
