Vosh rakh leap

RVikary · November 2015

So, I just wanted to know what skill is that one used when fighting the vosh rakh in the paragon's remembrance while questing for the anger of the king. They leap into the air and land on you with their sword. That's an awesome move and I was wondering if it's truly new because I never saw it before.

i forget where i'v seen it before but it's an easy one to dodge, see him jump? just move left or right, he's already locked onto that spot you are stood, same with how mudcrabs dig attack works

Oh yes, no problem dodging that. I just thought it was awesome and was wondering if it's new or not. Maybe it happens in places I haven't been to yet, I don't know.

It's a fairly new mob attack; pretty amazing. There are other mobs that have similar set up - not the same but similar concept - (Grieving Twilight etc.), but this one is pretty awesome!

First time I saw that I thought, "they gotta make that a player ability".

Me too!
Surprised me a bit....Where'd he go? Did he glitch? *slam* Oh, there you are...
also, they seem to be untargetable for a sec or two after the jump?

Yep they are immune for a moment after landing, but they also can't attack you during that time. When I see them leap, I just go after another mob figuring they are out of the fight for a short time period.

Besides of that jump (which many enemies use, not just that one), there's also at least one other new skill which knocks the player back quite a bit, more than any previous mobs in other zones. I think mainly casters use it.

Please don't wish for it to be a player ability, it may look cool but would be horrible to use.

It would definitely be a templar ability in that it is slow, can be easily dodged and stuns the caster for seconds after impact.
Kind of a combination of the worst things templars already have plenty of.

Well, it would be awesome if it tracked the target and always landed on it and granting you invulnerability for the duration. In PvP it would be hilarious. Player leaps into the air, Nightblade cloaks and runs away only to have the Templar come crashing out of the sky on top of him a few seconds later no matter how far he got away. Lol.

It looks cool but takes way too long for it to be effective in PvP and given the animation time it would have to do 100k damage to not be a dps loss in PvE.

Stuns the caster? Are you sure? I didn't notice that. On the other way around, it gives a little immunity to the caster. Everytime I dodge this attack and I try to hit the jumping fella, the animation of my attack doesn't play or it says that "Target is immune"

It's in Diablo 3
