When the combat starts, at 75% and at 41% Health, Matron Grygarsnit immediately launches a blue magical orb at one of the dead Reachmen surrounding her, bringing them back to life as aBriarheart Brute or a Briarheart Wildling. The Briarhearts die when Matron Grygarsnit is defeated. Two are summoned each time if at least two players fight Matron Grygarsnit.

Dialogue

When you arrive, she'll say:

"Have you come to join my army, then? It only takes a little seed."

Whenever she resurrects Reachfolk as Briarheart Brutes or Briarheart Wildlings :

"Rise from your grave, defend the tree! I command you!"

Bugs

• Blocking "Raven Storm" doesn't reduce the damage taken. ^?
• Her resurrection dialogue doesn't cut short if an other resurrection happens, this means she often continues to talk after she dies. ^?
