A cave horror (elite) is an elite version of the cave horror. If on a Slayer assignment, an elite Cave horror is guaranteed to spawn; otherwise, elite monsters have a spawn rate of 1 in 1,000. Elite spawn rates can be further increased with the use of fellstalk incense sticks and tier 2 luck.

Unlike its normal counterpart, the elite version has the ability to negate the effect of Witchwood icons, allowing them to attack at a rapid rate.

Names

The elite versions have varying names, with a randomly generated prefix and suffix.

Prefix	Cave horror	Suffix
Cruel		of Death
Dangerous		of Doom
Infamous		of Fear
Monstrous		of Pain
Notorious		of Peril
Powerful		of Suffering
