|description=A truly impressive strategic mind in life, Kriig saw an early end for his mistaken faith in his allies. Though he was sent to an unjust grave, he was like any great mastermind, and had contingencies in place for just such an occasion. A dark deal with an entity of undeath allowed him to rise again and take his revenge. Now he serves the Cult of the Damned with renewed purpose, fully immersing himself into their enigmatic cause.

'''{{PAGENAME}}''' is a Level 47 [[V Blood Carrier]].

==Location==
Kriig can be found in the [https://vrising.fandom.com/wiki/Map:Vardoran?marker=74 Haunted Iron Mine] in [[Dunley Farmlands]]. Another V Blood, [[Meredith the Bright Archer]], also patrols the same area as Kriig and frequently fights him.

==Attacks==
*'''Slash''' - He sweeps his scythe in a wide arc forward, slashing a large area in front of him and on his sides.
*'''Reaper Whirlwind''' - His scythe glows green and he draws back his scythe horizontally behind him with both hands, before spinning in a circle while dashing forward. This attack snares the player if it hits them.
*'''Chain Harpoons''' - He draws back his left arm and throws 3 harpoons towards the player, which drag them back towards Kriig and briefly snare them if they hit.
*'''Bone Circle''' - Kriig raises his scythe in the air, and after a brief delay summons an unholy circle around him that deals damage in melee range.
*'''Ward of the Damned''' - He summons a shield similar to the player's {{Ability|Ward of the Damned}}, blocking any attacks that hit it and summoning skeletons that fight alongside Kriig.

===Brutal Difficulty===
Every 5 seconds, Kriig will summon an Armoured Skeleton in a random location nearby.
*'''Reaper Whirlwind''' - If Kriig hits his skeletons with this ability, they will be afflicted with the '''Agony''' effect and glow green. After a few seconds they explode and deal massive damage in an area around them. These explosions can damage other skeletons and even kill them, potentially causing a large chain reaction of explosions.
*'''Ward of the Damned''' - He now summons 2 skeletons instead of 1 if the player hits his shield.

==Strategy==
Kriig will frequently fight [[Meredith the Bright Archer]] and her Militia entourage, leaving one of them dead and the other on low enough health that they'll be easier to defeat. On brutal difficulty, Kriig will almost always defeat Meredith due to his exploding undead unless the player intervenes to distract him or he spends too long standing on burning ground created by Meredith's Militia Archers.

If the player chooses not to bait him into fighting Meredith, then he is best fought in his arena at the southernmost end of the mine. This area gives you lots of room to maneuver and is free from dangers present elsewhere in the mine, such as the undead patrols and unholy energy erupting from the ground.

On brutal difficulty, Kriig becomes significantly more threatening especially if he is surrounded by a large number of skeletons that he can explode. Players will greatly benefit from using area of effect spells (such as {{Ability|Aftershock}} and {{Ability|Bone Explosion}}) to clear them out before he can detonate them. Players must continue to kill his skeletons throughout the fight to prevent them from growing into a massive ticking time bomb.

==Quotes==
===Sighting an enemy===
"''For the ever-living!''"

"''Challenging me is a poor strategy!''"

"''Another soul for my collection!''"

"''You will make a fine addition to my army!''"

===Death===
"''Death... is inevitable!''"

==Trivia==
Prior to Kriig's upgrade to a V Blood Boss, he was just the Undead General that roamed the mines. After the Gloomrot update happened, he also took [[Nicholaus the Fallen]]'s spell reward [[Ward of the Damned]].
