Operator

The Operator is a side Quest boss from the Quest "From a Bygone Era". He is found in the sewers in Act 3 after solving 2 Puzzles.

Observed abilities (on Hard):

 * Teleport: Teleports himself around the chamber. Can not by targeted or hit shortly before and after each port.


 * Personal shield: Has two functions 1) Blocks some incoming blows while the boss is alone. 2) While the gargoyles are present, the shield is always up making the boss totally invulnerable and knocking you to the ground if you come near the boss.


 * Summon a pair of gargoyles: Summons a pair of -nastier than ordinary- gargoyles. The gargoyle lands on a random spot in the chamber. It is more tough than the gargoyles you can fight outside. Time to time it does a charge followed by 2-3 fast strikes. Explodes on death. Unlike the boss they are vulnerable to silver sword. The summoning appears to occur based on boss's total hit points (speculation), circa at 90%, 50% and 10% so you have to beat a minimum of 6 gargoyles to kill the boss.


 * Fireball: Operator's only direct mean of atack. Throws them pretty often. Casting can be interrupted by hitting him. One fireball can fully discharge your Quen sign (even talented) or take a large portion of your health. The fireballs can be avoided behind the pillars or behind gargoyles.

The Operator drops Dragon Scale and Operator's Staff.
