At 1.1 seconds a swing for 60, sustained contact costs roughly 55 health per second. The charge multiplier takes it from 11 to 24.2 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.

Explodes

Detonates on death. Step out of the blast before landing the killing blow.

Drops

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