Sobek's Herald
A Boss-tier melee monster in Canopus Delta, encountered at levels 65–66. It counts toward quests that ask for elite or boss monsters, whatever your level.
Skills
Sobek's Herald has two named skills. Each fires once per fight, at the moment shown below. The boss card in Expeditions lists the same skills before you spend any energy, and the fight report names a skill when it fires.
| Skill | When | What it does |
|---|---|---|
| Scaled Hide | When struck below 60% health | Struck below 60% health, its scales close up: 12% less damage taken for 2 rounds. Punishes a low-damage build. |
| Death Roll | When you end a round below 40% health | Once you end a round below 40% health, it rolls you under: +30% damage in the next round. Punishes a fragile build. |
Nature
Its card in Expeditions reads Born of poison · Resists poison.
- Resists poison. Poisoned, which gear with Poison chance can leave, has 50 % of its strength on it.
A nature changes only the state an element leaves, never the hit itself, and nothing is immune. See Elements and states.

Themed loot: 60% of template rolls draw from this monster’s humanoid pool — Gladius, Mace, War Axe, Sling, Arbalest, Hunting Bow, Shield, Quiver — and the remaining 40% from the full item catalogue.
Unique drops: Khopesh of the Herald (~6% per kill). A unique is its own tier, not a high roll: every copy carries the same hand-written stats and the same signature effect.
Item level of a drop scales with the monster’s level; the numbers above are the fixed odds a win rolls against.
