Husk
The game writes nothing about this fight — no stigma vision is tied to it and it leaves no Remembrance behind, so there is no first-party text to quote. Everything below is read from the game files.
Damage absorption
| Damage type | Absorbs | Defence | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Physical | 13% | 90 | Weakest |
| Fire | 38.3% | 375 | Toughest |
| Holy | 20.7% | 158 | |
| Wither | 24.9% | 200 | |
| Magic | 13% | 90 | Weakest |
Magic is spell damage. No weapon deals it — every spell does, whichever school it belongs to — so that row is how well casting works against this enemy, and the other four are what your weapon does.
Lowest absorption is where your damage goes furthest — physical and magic here. The Defence column is the game's own stored value, on the same scale as an armour piece's absorption. The percentage is derived from it as K/(K+defence) with K = 604, a constant solved from three mitigations measured in game rather than read out of a table — so treat it as accurate to a few tenths, not exact.
How to hurt it
- If you swing
- Slash · Physical 13% absorbed
- If you cast
- Magic 13% absorbed
- Resists
- Blunt · Fire 38.3% absorbed
Both lines matter whichever way you play. The game gives you two hands for melee and a third slot for casting or a throwable, so most fights use both — and a cast has a wind-up that a crowd at close range will not wait through. Take the number for whatever is in your hand at the time.
Two different things in the swing lane, read together. Slash, blunt and pierce are tags — every weapon deals one of them, and they are not in the table above. The named school is from that table, and it is the lowest of the four a weapon can actually deal: magic is left out of it because no weapon deals magic.
What does not work
No mechanic is ruled out — it can be staggered, backstabbed and Soulflayed.
Least effective: fire 38.3% absorbed · blunt
Not a wall — it can be killed with any of these. At 38.3% absorbed you are giving up 25 percentage points against physical and magic, which is the difference between a fight and a long fight.

Status resistance
| Status | Resistance | |
|---|---|---|
| Bleed | 180 | |
| Poison | 200 | |
| Frostbite | 200 | |
| Smite | 225 | |
| Burn | 0 | Procs soonest |
| Ignite | 0 | Procs soonest |
| Wither | 200 | Applies on hit |
These are buildup thresholds, not percentages, so they read the opposite way to absorption — a lower number procs sooner. They are comparable between enemies but not against any other figure on the site. The proc itself is a damage event that scales off your own attributes, which is why two players see different numbers from the same status.
Wither sits outside that comparison. It applies on the hit rather than building toward a threshold, so its figure is not measuring the same thing as the other six and is left out of "procs soonest" — otherwise it would win on most enemies in the game and the tag would stop telling you anything.

Its loot row carries no faction code at all, which is true of most bosses and of anything the game never sorted into one. Nothing is inferred from a missing one.
