Description

This is the first form of this Boss. When Malistaire the Undying (Shadow) is defeated or reaches below 1,000 health, he will respawn as Haunted Malistaire†. Use the Haunted Malistaire page to list Spells and stats, but record all drops and cheats on this page.

The Second Chance Chest, Malistaire's Chest, will appear after the duel.

Speech:

"And so it comes to this. You, shaking in your too-large robes. A flimsy wand trembling in your grasp. The sour scent of fear sweat in the air. And me. EXULTANT in my mastery of magic. In a small way, I should thank you. If you had not sent me spinning off into the void, had not destroyed Morganthe, I might not have been able to achieve this. At my moment of greatest pain and confusion and despair, the locked gates of the Spiral opened before me, and I was able to master Shadow. Once you are but a memory and a pinch of dust upon the wind, I will have the power to restore my Sylvia to her vibrant form. Then we can live out our lives as we planned. Quietly and in peace. And Shadow take any who get in our way. I challenged you under the ancient Law of Kan Davasi. It is just between us now, Wizard. Prepare your spells and face my cold fury!"

Cheats

"I cannot be stopped" - At the beginning of the first Round, Malistaire will cheat-cast a Shadow Taunt on the first Wizard.
- This cheat restores Malistaire the Undying (Shadow) to 100 health and spawn as Haunted Malistaire after being defeated for the first time.
- If a Wizard joins late during the planning phase, it will trigger the secondary interrupt cycle instead.
"What was yours is mine" - If a Wizard casts a universal Damage Blade (e.g. Balanceblade) or universal positive Damage Ward, he will cast Steal Charm or Steal Ward on the Wizard that received the effect.
- Pet Spells will trigger this cheat.
- If a multi-target Blade or Ward Spell, such as Bladestorm or Legion Shield is used, only the caster will be affected.
- Secondary Spell effects, such as the Ward from Abominable Weaver, will not trigger this cheat.
"I cast off your spells!" - If a universal Trap (e.g. Feint) or negative Charm (e.g. Black Mantle) is placed on Malistaire, he will cast Cleanse Ward or Cleanse Charm on himself.
- Pet Spells, Life Feint, and secondary Spells other than negative Damage Charms will trigger this cheat.
- Spells that target all enemies, including Mass Feint, and negative Health Charms (e.g Infection) will not trigger this cheat.
- If Elemental Defuse or Spirit Defuse is used, Malistaire the Undying will remove all three Dispel Charms.
- Indemnity can be used to prevent this cheat.
"I grow stronger every moment" - If any Weakness is placed on Malistaire, he will cast Empower.
- Weakness-based pet spells and secondary Spell effects (e.g. Efreet) will trigger this cheat.
"Can you face my stare?" - If a Wizard uses a single target Damage Spell against Malistaire, he will cast Black Mantle (-55%, 0 Pip) on the Wizard after the attack.
- Shadow Shrike will remove the Black Mantle when the attack Spell is cast.
- Pet Spells will trigger this cheat.

Interrupt Cycles Malistaire's first form revolves around two cheat cycles; a "Primary Interrupt Cycle" and a "Secondary Interrupt Cycle." Both cycles overlap each other throughout the battle.

Primary Interrupt Cycle:

The primary interrupt cycle repeats every 5 Rounds.

"Fear the power of Dragonspyre" - At the end of the third Round in this cycle, Malistaire will polymorph into a Black Dragon and attack a random Wizard, dealing 535 Moon Damage and destroying any Aura effects.
"A gift from Tartarus" - At the end of the fourth Round, he will cast a Sun version of Deadly Minotaur on a random Wizard.
"My curse upon you!" - At the end of the fifth Round, he will cast an Aura that grants him +50% outgoing Death Damage and +20% Power Pip Chance for five Rounds.

Secondary Interrupt Cycle:

The secondary interrupt cycle activates at the beginning of the fifth Round, repeating itself every four Rounds.

"Its power shakes your spells apart!" - At the beginning of the fifth Round, Malistaire's Skeletal Dragon will remove all Charms and Wards from each Wizard.
- Wizards using Empowerment or Adapt will gain one Pip.

Haunted Malistaire (second form)

"I touch Shadow!" - Haunted Malistaire, a Shadow Boss, will spawn within the battle after Malistaire the Undying (Shadow) has been defeated or reaches below 1,000 health. The Boss interrupts a Shadow Spell at the beginning of the round that sets its max health to 48,000, restores 99,999 Health, and loses all Shadow Pips permanently.
- This cheat occurs once, even if Malistaire the Undying (Shadow) is not defeated.
- Malistaire's Health after healing can be decreased to 25,050 if a Treasure Card Doom and Gloom is present when Malistaire the Undying (Shadow) is defeated.
  - A regular Doom and Gloom will not reduce his health below 48,000.
  - If Malistaire the Undying (Shadow) is not defeated, the health can be reduced further using negative Healing Charms, such as Mass Infection.

Haunted Malistaire retains all the above cheats except his Primary Interrupt Cycle, along with the one cheat below.

"Curse you beast! Do not defy me!" - Malistaire's Skeletal Dragon will randomly place a +100% universal Trap on Malistaire and his allies.

Interrupt Cycles The "Primary Interrupt Cycle" is replaced with a Shadow version. The "Secondary Interrupt Cycle" stays the same.

Primary Interrupt Cycle (Shadow version):

This cycle repeats every 4 Rounds.

"I call upon Shadow" - At the end of the first Round, he will cast Shadowblade on himself.
"I call upon Shadow" - At the end of the second Round, he will cast Shadowspear on himself.
"I call upon Shadow" - At the end of the third Round, he will cast an All Enemies version of Shadow Trap.
"I will show you the Shadow" - At the end of the fourth Round, he will cast Shadow Steal, which deals 1,600 Shadow Damage, and converts 100% of the Damage to Health.

Secondary Interrupt Cycle:

Same as with his first form (repeats every four Rounds).

"Its power shakes your spells apart!" - At the beginning of the fourth Round, Malistaire's Skeletal Dragon will remove all Charms and Wards from each Wizard.
- Wizards using Empowerment or Adapt will gain one Pip.

Spell Notes

Even though the Spell text does not indicate this, it has been observed that Skeletal Dragon (666+333) does Damage to All Enemies.
