Skills and Abilities[edit]

At the start of the fight, Zakuryn the Sculptor summons a Flesh Abomination to assist him during battle. The main threat of the abomination is the numerous thunderbolts, in the form of circular AoEs, that it causes when disturbing the ground with its mace.

If you die in combat, you will be transported to the middle of the planked walkway leading up to Zakuryn's arena; you do not have to run back to him all the way from the entrance.

Daedric Bolt
A basic ranged attack where Zakuryn the Sculptor tosses a magical bolt from his hand, dealing low frost damage.
Daedric Swell
Zakuryn the Sculptor raises his staff and fires off ethereal skulls from it, hitting you in rapid succession. This ability can be interrupted.
Daedric Swarm
Damage tick from "Daedric Swell", each dealing moderate magic damage.
Daedric Siphon
Zakuryn the Sculptor channels a necromantic beam to you using his staff, draining your health and healing him in return. Each tick deals moderate magic damage.
Vanish
Zakuryn the Sculptor's body slowly evaporates, and he teleports across the arena.
Summon Banekin
A dark pool of energy appears in the floor of the arena, which conjures a group of Banekin.
Ward
When Zakuryn the Sculptor reaches 40% health, he applies a magical shield over himself and becomes invulnerable. To remove this shield, his Flesh Abomination must be lured over to him and goaded into striking him, which will break the shield and stun him for a moment. A previous hint about this is that the abomination's strikes defeats the summoned banekin.
Absorb
Killing the abomination first causes its essence to be sent back to Zakuryn the Sculptor, which heals him for half of his starting health and enrages him.

Dialogue[edit]

When you engage Zakuryn in combat, he accepts your challenge.

"Another wishes to test their mettle!"
"Ah, a small one wishes to play."
"So you come to battle the champion of Molag Bal?"

When Zakuryn calls for his damage shield, he invokes Molag Bal.

"Protect me, Dread Lord!"

When the Abomination strikes its master with its mace arm, he chides it.

"No! Hit them, you buffoon!"
"I should have left you as scraps!"
"Not me, you clumsy oaf!"

When he is defeated, he laments his defeat.

"I failed you, my Prince …."
"I shall return!"
"How am I bested … by a mortal?"
