Your nemesis.
Whatever kills you can be marked. It takes a name, waits near where it
last saw you, and grows every time it kills you again.
/znemesis lists yours.
| Tier | Earned at | Health | Damage |
|---|---|---|---|
| Alpha | first kill | ×3.0 | ×1.2 |
| Elite | 5 kills on you | ×6.0 | ×1.8 |
| Apex | 10 kills on you | ×10.0 | ×3.0 |
An Apex has ten times the health of what it started as and hits three times as hard. Killing it is the only way to be rid of it.
