Elder Lemurian

The  is a returning monster in Risk of Rain 2, and the grown-up version of the. It is part of the monster family.

Skills & Behavior
Any single instance of damage that deals more than 15% of the Elder Lemurian's total health will stun it and interrupt its attacks or movement.

Primary: Fireball Volley
The Elder Lemurian fires 5 fireballs in a total spread of 45 degress. Each fireball travels at 45m/s and upon explodes upon impact dealing 200% damage with a proc coefficient of 1.0 in a radius of 6m with sweet spot falloff.

The Elder Lemurian fires each shot at 0.35 second intervals and the attack lasts for 2 seconds, both of which scale with attack speed. Since each fireball can be fired at most one frame apart from each other, if the total attack duration is less than 5 frames, the Elder Lemurian will not fire all 5 shots. However, this is impossible to achieve without mods, as it requires the Elder Lemurian to have at least 30 attack speed just to fire 4 shots.

This skill has a cooldown of 4 seconds.

Secondary: Fire Breath
The Elder Lemurian opens its mouth for 0.3 seconds (scales with attack speed) and then breates fires aimed directly at its feet for 1.3 seconds, dealing damage over 8 ticks. This has the potential of dealing 500% if all hits connect. Each hit has a proc coefficient of 0.4 and will add a stack to the target. This attack has an end lag of 1 second, which also scales by attack speed.

This skill has a cooldown of 1 second.

Behaviors

 * 1) Use secondary: the Elder Lemurian must be within 15m from its target and have line of sight.
 * 2) Use primary and chase: the Elder Lemurian must be within 50m from its target and have line of sight. This behavior will be active for 2 seconds.
 * 3) Use primary and stop: the Elder Lemurian must be within 50-80m from its target and have line of sight. This behavior will also be active for 2 seconds. This allows the player to maintain distance by kiting, as every time the Elder Lemurian enters the 80m range and have the skill on cooldown, it will fire and stop, giving the player the chance to build more distance.
 * 4) Chase: no requirements.
