Notes

• Similar to the weakened Intellect Devourers on the nearby beach, Za'krug and his cohort are different creatures from the general Goblin Tracker, Bugbear, etc. found throughout Act One. This is revealed on Tactician, where they lack the racial bonuses found on otherwise identical enemies. In Za'krug's case, he lacks the passive  Fury of the Small.
