*Although he is alone, character is trapped in a small chamber with him and can only escape by casting Town Portal: overcoming him can be one of the greatest challenges faced in Normal, particularly for fragile ranged attackers and casters.
 
*Although he is alone, character is trapped in a small chamber with him and can only escape by casting Town Portal: overcoming him can be one of the greatest challenges faced in Normal, particularly for fragile ranged attackers and casters.
*Aside from a standard Attack, he uses [[Jab]] and [[Smite]] (which requires a hit-check and can be blocked), the former of which is particularly dangerous in Normal when cold damage added by Holy Freeze is significant for that level ([[Cold Resist]] can drastically reduce danger: if nothing else, use [[Thawing Potion]]s). Fortunately he has not used [[Charge]] since [[patch]] 1.09, at the very least. [http://www.theamazonbasin.com/d2/forums/index.php?showtopic=83494&view=findpost&p=920534]

*Since all his active attacks are [[melee]] and apply physical damage, returning [[damage]] using [[Thorns]], [[Iron Maiden]], [[Iron Golem]] thorns or [[Spirit of Barbs]] can be a useful strategy (at least in Normal, where he is most dangerous), particularly if target is [[mercenary]] (to which he applies 200% damage) or [[pet]] (to which he applies 400% damage).
