Location:
Mines, Floors 80-119.
Strategy:
Shadow Brutes are slow but hit hard. Shadow Shamans cast curses that drain your energy and health. Prioritize Shamans first, as their curses can be debilitating. Use a strong sword or club. Food that provides combat buffs (e.g., Spicy Eel for speed/luck, Crab Cakes for speed/defense) can be very helpful. Keep your distance from Brutes and use hit-and-run tactics if your defense is low. They are not weak to any specific element.
Rewards:
Void Essence, Solar Essence, Shadow Dagger (from Brutes), Shadow Sword (from Shamans).
