Keep lords

Does anyone know how it is possible for a keep lord to heal himself during combat? The scenario in question was a level 10 keep lord at 5% health, who slowly managed to build himself up to about 90% health by the time he killed our force. There was the named guard in the room at the time iirc. Has anyone noticed this behaviour before and can account for it? Also does disease counter it at all?

Keep Lords have been able to heal themselves for ages now (not sure when it was introduced or it's always been the case). I believe disease helps but not 100% certain.

Yeah it was. Like I said, we got him to 5% then his health started jumping upwards, while our groups slowly died to the lord and high level guard aggro. :(

I think that Lord was probably buffed...

A lvl 10 lord cant beat 35 ppl unless he's buffed. And yes, keep Lord's tend to heal themselves when you cant get their health down fast enough.

I've taken lvl 10 lords with 7 ppl, and not optimized group at all - but he will always heal himself a couple of times on the way down. I've never seen him be able to heal himself above 30% or something tho..

Use amnesia or friar/paladin taunt, if its not resisted, it will always interupt, on a level 10 lord, it gets resisted more often than not though.

So you can give him a sword+bow, and you wont negate the first by adding the second?
