These guys have a crapload of HP. The Moxious Maneuver at the beginning missed. Each of the Killing/Frigid/Frightful Feathers did around 100 damage per throw.

26 feathers in all. I had no +xp mods.
I'd estimate their health at 2500-2600.-Redmage13 14:49, 18 June 2008 (CDT)
Hit this today - Face Stab hit (no appreciable reduction in the damage they do after several of these) but *all* my LTS's failed (buffed muscle was about 600 at the time, moxie was about 450). They CAN be CLEESHed.

Fought one, didn't drop anything. --Wavedash 14:25, 27 June 2008 (CDT)
Man, I've fought them a couple times and got no items either. It would seem ridiculous that there's not some sort of award for this! Or maybe it just kills a bunch of hobos in one fell swoop, moving the progress forward? --Sir Clement the Meek 21:03, 28 June 2008 (CDT)
Seems more likely that they're some sort of punishment adventure to "encourage" you to gather glyphs for the binder, and to stop you aimlessly wandering the market and not spending adventures. --Denarius 22:05, 28 June 2008 (CDT)
I've fought them several times now, also. No drops, but they DO seem to kill several hobos at one time. Can't say how many. --MTPockets 16:35, 15 July 2008 (CDT)
They do NOT kill several hoboes at one time, I just carefully measured. They in fact kill zero hoboes. I fought 15 gangs of muggers *and* 125 normal hoboes before the image moved on. --RavenBlack 02:36, 29 August 2008 (CDT)
Damage Reduction
These appear to have a small amount of damage reduction (about 6%). With a buffed myst of 549 and a buffed moxie of 547, my divine silly strings were doing 515 damage and my divine blowouts were doing 514 damage (and they did this amount 3 times in a row). --Flargen 01:30, 13 July 2008 (CDT)
- This time I had 1157 myst and 655 musc, and my strings and noisemakers did 645 and 575 damage respective. So none of these are consistent with a fixed amount of damage reduction. I think that the muggers have the same DA mechanic as the bosses, in that it scales with the damage you do. --Flargen 01:29, 20 July 2008 (CDT)
