Wraith is an Enemy in Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen.

Overview[]

Wraiths are Ghosts with a red hue. Their attacks are like those of other ghosts: they can possess their victims, draining their health, which may send pawns instantly to the Rift if not interrupted. Wraiths may inflict debilitations like Drenched or Curse by rushing their incorporeal form through their target.

Like other ghosts, Wraiths are resistant to Dark, weak against Holy magick, and immune to physical damage except when they possess an ally.

Attacks[]

Attack Type Description
Light Possession Spec Grabs onto a target's head, and drains small amounts of health until it grows in size, then leaving its host, and causing knockdown. Whilst possessing an ally, it is vulnerable to physical attacks.

Whilst in possession of a host, the creature restores its health.

Heavy Possession Spec Grabs onto the head and upper body of a target, and drains large amounts of health every few seconds until its host dies. Whilst possessing a host, the ghost is vulnerable to physical attacks.

Usually a wraith will use the Light Possession attack before using the more powerful health drain.

The amount of damage done is proportional to the hosts maximum Health and is not mitigated by elemental or possession resistances, or by magick defense.

Ghostly Discharge Spec Starts pulsating, increases in size and eventually discharges, causing stagger and may inflict Skill Stifling to anyone near it. (adult form only)
Floating Charge Spec This is the primary mode of moving. It will rush at targets, staggering and potentially causing Curse as well as Drenched.
Fade Spec The Wraith will fade out of this plane to avoid damage for a time. When it reappears, it will be where it was before.

Tactics[]

  • Weak to Holy enchanted weapons and spells.
  • The Coin Purse of Charity is very effective.
  • Any attack, both physical or magickal, will free an ally from the possessing attack.
    • Whilst possessing a victim a Wraith can generally be dispatched in one shot with a Throwblast.
    • Keep an eye on pawns and listen for their calls for help.
  • Because Wraiths usually take time to kill, best clear the battlefield of other enemies before focusing on them.
