Attacks and abilities

  • Incite Rage: Some form of buff on the adds that come with him. This eventually gives the targets the Exhausted debuff, which slows attacks by 25%.
  • Ill Gift: 2 second cast, around 3000 shadow damage. All damage dealt is returned to the target as an equal amount of mana.

Strategy

These mobs generally come with non-elites in four or five pulls. It is not, however, suggested you AoE them as they are immune to snares, crowd control, and taunt.

Using Seed of Corruption on the "Philantropist packs" on the tier directly after the opera can aggro the packs above likely resulting in a wipe.

They used to drop a considerable amount of gold (about 10-12 each). They only appear in the area after the Opera event.

Reward

Reputation: Provides 15 reputation with The Violet Eye.

As of patch 3.1.1, the Ghostly Philanthropist no longer drops any gold.

Quotes

Death It's all... coming back to me.

Death Is it really over?


Patch changes

  • Hotfix (2009-04-24): "Ghostly Philanthropists have gone broke and will now drop zero gold. [1]"
