Template name: siege_bug_boss_stats
Launched from catapults, the Durvlas curl up into a ball, protected from a hard landing by their solid shell. They attack with slashes from their razor-sharp claws. Where they come from is not known, but there are rumors that they are being bred by Dark Wizards for the Morden armies.

The chance is for one kill of this creature (level 33 / 58 / 79 in Mercenary / Veteran / Elite) with magic find at 0: the chance that its drop table rolls an item of this kind, times this item’s share of the items that can come out at that level. Items with the same name are added up. Creatures of the same kind that the Bestiary lists under other names share the same drop table at their own level. Computed from the game’s drop tables, not measured. A source rolls the entries of its drop table; an entry asks the game’s item table for one item of the right class inside a level window; every matching item is equally likely (the game picks a random row, there is no rarity weight). Chance is per kill or per opening, with magic find at 0.
Where it is found
| Place | Placed | Spawned | Random encounters |
|---|---|---|---|
| A Durvla Hatchery | 1 |
Random boss spots (one boss of the pool is picked per spot):
- A Durvla Hatchery: 1 of 8 possible bosses
Confidence: Medium From the game’s map files. How many random encounters you meet is a roll the data does not fix.
Does it count for the Bestiary?
Random encounter only
Only random encounters bring them, so how many you meet depends on the game’s rolls.
- Base game book
- No. 266
- Kills needed
- 1 kill
Comes from random encounters, so how many you meet depends on the game's rolls.
Confidence: High the audit of the data files, confirmed by the in-game kill test
In-game kill test: unlocked after 1 kills (agrees with the data audit)
Natural spawn census: seen in 1 of 10 runs, most in one region: 2. A lower bound; a run only loads the areas near the party.
Kill counts are kept separately for Mercenary, Veteran and Elite. See how the Bestiary works.
Broken World
Level and strength
| Mercenary | Veteran | Elite | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Level | 33 | 63 | 89 |
| Life | 5,729 | 18,361 | 35,075 |

| Defense | 112 | 224 | 336 |
| Experience | 2,912 | 39,272 | 436,687 |
These are Broken World’s numbers: Broken World raises the levels of Veteran and Elite monsters.
Confidence: Medium Worked out from the formulas in the creature’s template, for the levels the template gives. Not compared with the game’s own Bestiary screen; spawn spots may change a monster’s level.
