The Rat Whisperer

The Rat Whisperer is a crazed Breton found in Wayrest Sewers I. He leads a large pack of skeevers, hence his name, and also has Vermin Feeder minions. A copy of The Piper is found beside him, and he can be seen dancing before battle. He is a completely optional miniboss as he is not found on the quest-related path.

His only unique spell is his ability to summon skeevers.

Skills and Abilities[edit]

As a boss type enemy, the Rat Whisperer is immune to all crowd control effects.

Ice Arrow
A basic ranged attack that does minor frost damage.
Summon Ice Barrier
The enemy summons an Ice Barrier that absorbs projectiles fired at it until destroyed. The player should move so that there is a clear line of sight between themselves and the enemy.
Winter's Reach
The enemy releases an icy whirlwind in the direction it is facing. This whirlwind does moderate frost damage and roots all players that it hits. This spell can be interrupted or simply avoided.
Void
The enemy summons a purple orb from the sky that explodes when it hits the ground splitting into three projectiles dealing moderate magic damage. This skill then sends out magic AoEs across the floor called Void Bursts. This attack can be interrupted or simply avoided.
Void Burst
These AoEs are released after Void lands, the smaller AoEs deal moderate magic damage.
Call Skeevers
Occasionally, the boss will summon a large swarm of Skeevers to attack. They should be killed quickly to simplify the fight.

Dialogue[edit]

When you start fighting him he will cry out:

The Rat Whisperer: "First those nobles and now you cretins? You don't belong here!"

As he summons his rat pack:

The Rat Whisperer: "Come to me my minions!"
