Legendary Bandit Executioner
Legendary Bandit Executioner
Legendary Bandit Executioner is a legendary bandit that has a chance to show up after defeating one of the champion bandit leaders involved in the bounties for Justice of the Blade achievements, with the chance increasing if a player nearby has a Bandit Death Mark in their inventory. The Executioner wields a greatsword, and has weapon skills that deal medium to high damage. They move at a slow walking speed, but can catch targets off guard and dodge abilities when using Whirlwind Attack to reach them, only becoming vulnerable to crowd control when finishing downed players. They are accompanied by several Veteran Bandit Casters, who provide healing, Might, and Regeneration to the Executioner, and who will respawn throughout the fight.
Locations[edit]
They will only appear during Slay the Bandit Executioner before they exact revenge when it occurs by chance, in the same location as the defeated champion bandit leader.

- If the player has the Ancient Magics mastery track Counter Magic, the sword can be caught before it does damage by quickly using the Counter Magic special action skill within the AoE (a sound effect plays when available), which after a successful channel will grant an automatically equipped bundle with a Return to Sender skill that throws a projectile at the player's target. If thrown back at the Executioner through the Chaos Orbiter orb, it will destroy it and instantly knock the Executioner down even if they are immune to CC.
