+[[Image:Mon-korlic01.jpg|frame]]Korlic is an [[Animals|Animal]].
-Prior to v1.09, Korlic and the other Ancients were much fiercer, since they gained random [[Monster Modifiers]], and could stack up numerous bonuses on hell, often resulting in 2 or 3 immunities each. Players frequently had to use a town portal to reset the level and try again until they "rerolled" properties on the Ancients that could be dealt with. In the current v1.11 version they are no longer randomized, and have preset properties like the Act Bosses. This makes them predictable, less dangerous, and somewhat less fun.
+Korlic is found on the Arreat Summit. He is one of the three statues who come to life to defend the entrance to the Worldstone Keep, and must be defeated to complete the [[Quests_Act_Five#Quest_Five:_Rite_of_Passage|Rite of Passage quest]]. Korlic wields a huge poleaxe and a devastating leap attack, and is more dangerous than [[Madawc]] or [[Talic]], the other two guardians.
-* Korlic's leap attack was nerfed in v1.09, lowering the damage considerably and removing the "always hits" property, though it's still damaging and is best avoided. He will not attempt a Leap Attack at melee range, and his melee chop is not nearly as damaging.
+Prior to v1.09, Korlic and the other Ancients were much fiercer, since their benefits from the random [[Monster Modifiers]] they gained were uncapped, and enabled them to stack multiple immunities on Hell. Players were frequently forced to use a town portal to reset the level and try again and again until they "rerolled" properties on the Ancients that could be dealt with. Since v1.09, the maximum gains from random properties are capped, making the Ancients more predictable, less dangerous, and somewhat less fun.

+=Offense=
+Korlic and the other 2 Barbarian Guardians do not have any permanent [[Monster Modifiers|modifiers]], but they all gain, at random, 1 on Nightmare and 2 on Hell.
+Korlic's melee attack is not that fearsome. His real danger comes from his leap attack. Even though this attack was nerfed in v1.09, it still does huge damage and nearly always hits, if the target is in range and fails to block it. (His [[Barbarian_Combat_Skills#Leap_Attack|leap attack bonuses]] are equivalent to level 5, 8, and 12.) A low hit point character, especially when Cursed or when Korlic is Extra Strong or boosted by Might, takes a single one of his leaping hits at their great peril. He is best engaged at melee range, where he can not unleash his leap attack.
+* All of the guardians spawn with random equipment bonuses, much like Valkyries do. This can give them interesting bonuses to their damage, resistances, and other properties, though these bonuses are hard to observe or quantify during the chaotic battle.

+=Defenses=
+Like all SuperUniques, Korlic does not regenerate hit points.
+Korlic can not be frozen or chilled on any difficulty level, though he is susceptible to slowing from skills such as Holy Freeze and Decrepify.
+* Drain Effectiveness tells what % of a character's mana and life steal apply to that monster. 100 is all, 0 is none.
+* Chill Effectiveness tells what % of a character's cold length applies to the monster. 100 is all, 0 is no freeze/chill at all.
