Cultist

Cultist has 200 health and spawns in the mountains.

It takes extra damage from poison; fire does nothing to it at all. Blunt, slash and pierce land at full damage, so that is what to bring.

Its hardest hit is fenring attack fireclaw at 40 fire and 35 slash, out of 3 attacks.

Some of what it throws is elemental, so fire resistance is worth having.

You cannot block fenring attack flames, so give yourself room to dodge instead.

Of everything craftable, Frostfire Crossbow, Thunderblood Crossbow and Lightning Strike put the most damage through what it resists.

It always drops Red Jute.

Cultist is a red-cloaked Fenring found inside Frost Caves in the Mountains. It has 200 health, is immune to fire and weak to poison, which rules out the torches and fire arrows that work on everything else in the biome. Its claw does 35 slash and 40 fire on a 2 second cooldown, with a two-hit version every 10 seconds, and its unblockable fire breath does 50 fire in a 4 meter cone but only fires from 2 to 6 meters away, so closing in shuts it off. It drops 1 to 3 Red Jute every kill and the Cultist Trophy at 10 percent.
