''Sarevok can be affected by all of the following Conditions:''
== Encounters ==
* Compelled to Duel
Sarevok can be fought at the [[Murder Tribunal]] in the [[Lower City Sewers]]. He is joined by echoes of [[Echo of Sendai|Sendai]], [[Echo of Illasera|Illasera]], and [[Echo of Amelyssan|Amelyssan]], as well as other conditional allies.
* Frightened
* Mental Fatigue
* Slowed
* Sluggardly
* Vicious Mockery


==Summons==
If the player convinces [[Dolor]] to take up arms against the Murder Tribunal, Sarevok will cast [[Power Word Kill]] on Dolor, instantly killing him.{{cite web|url=https://i.imgur.com/Kv0PNOK.png|title=Sarevok casts Power Word Kill on Dolor}}
When Sarevok is in combat, these entities always exist in the field, even if Sarevok does not have to "summon" them himself during the fight.


Summons that assist Sarevok have ''different'' condition immunities and vulnerabilities than Sarevok himself.
This fight greatly revolves around the Echoes. Each Echo will contribute to the fight in one of three ways, depending on whether it and Sarevok are alive:
* While Sarevok is alive, each living Echo uses spells to support him or hinder the party, but they do not directly attack the party.
* When an Echo is killed, it grants a permanent "Absorbed Essense" buff to Sarevok.
* When Sarevok is killed, any surviving Echoes gain {{cond|Retributive Justice}} and begin attacking the party directly.  


'''Echo of Amelyssan'''
[[Echo of Amelyssan]]'s {{SAI|Warding Bond}} will often result in her dying first, but fortunately, her Absorbed Essence is relatively harmless. It is advisable to avoid killing [[Echo of Sendai]] and [[Echo of Illasera]], since their Absorbed Essences effects make Sarevok much harder to kill and much more dangerous, respectively. They can instead be disabled through means such as {{cond|Stunned}} or {{cond|Silenced}}, or simply ignored by killing Sarevok before they can cause too much trouble. Even with {{cond|Retributive Justice}}, the Echoes by themselves are far less dangerous than Sarevok at full power.
* While alive, this summon Casts [[Warding Bond]] and [[Sanctuary]] on Sarevok.
* On death of this summon, each of Sarevok's attacks will heal him for 2-24 hit points.


'''Echo of Illasera'''
This fight can also be "cheesed". Once the party has either presented the hand of a victim they killed or passed the {{Ability Check|Deception|20}} to convince Sarevok that they are worthy of becoming an ''Unholy Assassin'', he will stand up to walk into the sacrificial chamber next door while the Echoes teleport to the room ahead of him. Attacking him at this moment leaves him extremely vulnerable because the Echoes will be too far to come to his aid.
* While alive, may cast [[Haste]] on Sarevok.
* On death of this summon, Sarevok is permanently hastened and cannot be affected by paralysis, restraints, or other attempts to reduce his movement speed.


'''Echo of Sendai'''
== References ==
* While alive, Casts [[Slow]], and [[Command]] on players and their allies.
{{reflist|url}}
* On death of this summon, Sarevok's armor class is increased by 6.
