Mage Outlaw

The Mage Outlaw is a hostile that can be found in the Courtyard on the Crimson Isle.

Spawning
The Mage Outlaw spawns periodically within the Courtyard.

Drops
When killed, the mage outlaw spawns an iron circle with a beacon where players can claim their loot. Drops include Spell Powder and (sometimes enchanted) Glowstone Dust.

Behaviour
The Mage Outlaw has several attacks, and will switch between them.

Firstly, the outlaw stands in the centre of the courtyard, and summons an floating ender crystal which constantly zaps players nearby. The player must have a sufficient healing rate to survive this attack.

The outlaw will then use one of two attacks where it floats upwards and gains a shield, reflecting any damage dealt during the attack. It will either periodically spawn markers below players and strike the markers with lightning, or spawn an expanding redstone circle surrounded by particles, which the players must escape out of before it deals damage.

The outlaw will also sometimes spawn Summoned Skulls, which float around the outlaw and zap players. They have 200k health.

Trivia

 * The Mage Outlaws were apparently exiled from Scarleton due to their desire for power.
