At 0.7 seconds a swing for 180, sustained contact costs roughly 257 health per second. The charge multiplier takes it from 10 to 22 while closing.

Behaviour

Charges

Multiplies its movement speed while closing mid-range distance, then drops back to base speed on contact. Freezing effects are the only reliable brake.

Boss

Attacks on a 0.7-second cadence instead of the standard 1.1, and announces itself in the message log on spawn. One instance may be alive in its region at a time.

Long reach

Engages from up to 90 units, well beyond ordinary melee range.

Drops

Coins and experience are awarded separately and are not part of the drop table.

Location

Dread Sovereign is not bound to a named region and appears on the general wilderness table, weighted by the biome you are standing in.

Strategy

• Fight in contact or from well outside its approach band; the middle distance is where it doubles speed.
• Only one may be alive in the region at a time — clear the trash first so nothing adds mid-fight.
• At 180 a hit, two connected swings will end most unarmoured players. Armour matters more than damage here.
