A green Watcher

Watchers are flying tentacled Daedra that have multiple eyes, using their largest one to cast magical attacks. They are associated with many Daedric Princes, Hermaeus Mora most of all.

Skills and Abilities

As they are considered elite enemies, watchers are immune to all forms of crowd control effects.

Gaze

The watcher shoots a beam from its eye directly at its target as a basic ranged attack, dealing moderate magic damage.

Shockwave

The watcher swiftly spins around and releases a burst of magic, as indicated by a large red circle, dealing moderate magical damage, knocking back and snaring all targets in the affected area. Blocking prevents the knockback but not the snare.

Doom-Truth's Gaze

The watcher shoots either two or five green beams from its eye. When there's two beams, they start on each side of the watcher then rejoin in front of it. When there's five beams, they all start in front of the watcher and disperse in straight lines. There is no indicator for these. Getting hit by a beam deals moderate magical damage and stuns, though Break Free can be used. Blocking negates the stun.
