Charred Warrior has 600 health and spawns in the Meadows, the swamps, the mountains, Black Forest, the plains and the Ashlands.
It takes extra damage from spirit; it resists pierce and fire; poison does nothing to it at all. Blunt and slash land at full damage, so that is what to bring.
Its hardest hit is greatsword thrust at 160 pierce, out of 4 attacks.
Of everything craftable, 
Lightning Strike, 
Frostfire Sledge and 
Thunderblood Sledge put the most damage through what it resists.
It always drops 
Charred Bone.
Charred Warrior is a Demon faction swordsman found across the Ashlands at fortresses, tower ruins and charred stone spawners. It has 600 health and the same resistance profile as the rest of the Charred: pierce reduced, fire nearly useless, poison ignored, and spirit landing for extra. Its greatsword swings for 150 slash and thrusts for 160 pierce on 3 second cooldowns, both inside 1.6 meters. Each of those has a feint that uses the same windup before pausing and landing 130 slash or 160 pierce instead, and the animation is close enough to the real thing that it catches rolls rather than parries. Drops are 1 to 3 Charred Bone and a 5% 
Warrior Trophy.
They pause mid-swing to bait your parry, then hit through the opening you just made. Wait for the actual blade, not the windup. Spirit damage bites hard, pierce barely lands, and their bones stack into the skeleton summons you will want later.
| Where | Roll | Group | Conditions |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ashlands | 15% every 700 s, max 4 near you | 1 to 2 | above 1 m · up to ★★ |
| Meadows, Swamp, Mountain, Black Forest, Plains | 5% every 3000 s, max 3 near you | 1 to 3 | night only · after killing fader · hunts you on sight |
Each 64 m zone keeps its own timer per entry and rolls the chance once per interval while loaded; a zone never loaded before rolls the moment you arrive. The spawn lands 50 to 0 m from a player, never inside a base unless noted, and "max near you" counts the loaded area around that zone. Dungeon and camp spawners are separate and not counted here.
With devcommands enabled, this spawns Charred Warrior in front of you. The third number is the level: 3 spawns a 2-star.
