[FAQ] • [doc]

The forgotten mage is a monster in Daemonheim released with the Dungeoneering skill. They attack exclusively with magic. Their combat levels vary, as do the magic robes they wear and the level of spells they cast.

Forgotten mages have a special ability only shared by necromancers, mercenary leaders, reborn mages and Seekers: they could cast what looks like Stat Spy on players to temporary disable the cloaking effects of the shadow silk hood. This can be their most lethal spell if other humanoid monsters are in the room. Even though it deals no direct damage, it can cause multiple humanoid enemies to attack the affected player at once. The higher the mage's combat level, the more powerful the spells they can use.

Forgotten mages also appear in Salt in the Wound.
