Animate Ruin

The Darkest Dungeon is the Ancestor's greatest work, and the Animate Ruin is what happens when the work starts contributing to its own defense — architecture that has stopped being architecture.

Tactics

Extremely high resistances across the board, including near-immunity to Stun and Bleed. Blight is the most reliable damage vector. The Animate Ruin deals heavy damage and has significant HP; this is an attrition fight. Compositions that bring reliable Blight (Plague Doctor, Occultist) perform better than physical damage parties.
