Wraiths are aggressive creatures found in Swamps. They are dark blueish spectral entities, cloaked with a hood covering their blank face. They emit a quiet snarling hiss sound when they are aggravated. Since they naturally spawn at night, glow and fly, spotting them from a distance is easy; their telltale glow reveals them even to inattentive players as they approach.

Notes[]

  • Wraiths can be especially dangerous when entering Swamps early on, with Black Forest-tier gear. It is best to avoid entering the biome at night for this reason.
  • Wraiths are the only renewable source of Chains, the other major source being Sunken Crypts.
  • Because of their Spirit damage weakness (and considering their Physical damage resistance), Silver weapons are around 90% effective, making them a good choice. However, due to Wraith's immunity to Frost damage, the Frostner is only about 50% effective, making it a bad choice.
  • Wraiths can fly directly on top of you if you get under them correctly, making them unable to hit you, while being vulnerable to two-handed Clubs like the Stagbreaker.
