The evil spirit is the boss in Rum Deal. It only attacks with Melee, so turning on Protect from Melee is sufficient in protecting a player from most damage. High-levelled players should not worry about this battle, as the spirit is rather weak and has few hitpoints for its level.

Fighting the evil spirit.

Using Magic can kill it relatively quickly. If a player is above level 40 and uses Protect from Melee, there is little need for food.

The player can use numerous crates, barrels or even brewers as safespots. It's also possible to make the evil spirit lose its aggro by running on the eastern walkway outside the brewery or using ladders or stairs to move on different floors.

If players take too long killing it, it will be sucked back into the brewing controls and must be fought again from full hitpoints.

Trivia

  • The 'pun intended' comment on his examine text is a reference to a spirit, which is a type of alcohol and Braindeath rum, which is an evil alcohol.
  • Although the evil spirit is a quest boss, it does not appear in the Nightmare Zone.
  • The Evil spirit somewhat resembles the sluglings that you put in the pressure barrel, a step before the Evil spirit appears.
