[edit] Locations

• All towns and outposts in the following regions
  • Shiverpeak Mountains
    • Droknar's Forge (explorable area)
  • Kryta
  • Maguuma Jungle
  • Crystal Desert
  • Ring of Fire Island Chain

[edit] Skills

• Drain Enchantment
• Empathy
• Ether Feast
• Hex Breaker
• Imagined Burden (below level 20)
• Leech Signet
• Power Block (elite, level 20)
• Shatter Hex
• Resurrection Signet

[edit] Evaluation

Pros

• Empathy is an excellent damage-dealing spell against computer-controlled opponents.
• He can remove hexes and is the only henchman in Prophecies that can do so, albeit at a high energy cost.
• He can remove enchantments.
• Power Block is a very strong interrupt skill, in addition to Leech Signet.
• Dunham's skills deal armor-ignoring damage.
• Has a relatively strong heal in Ether Feast

Cons

• He tends to use Imagined Burden often, which is not terribly useful overall in PvE. Sometimes he even casts it on stationary targets such as Dune Burrowers.

[edit] Dialogue

Towns and outposts:

"Things certainly have changed after the Searing. Life has become a constant struggle for survival. However one must never abandon one's sense of pride and dignity."

Droknar's Forge (explorable area):

"I much prefer the cold to those stinking hot volcanoes. I think a mink-lined jacket would be a rather fetching way to stay warm.

[edit] Quotes

Shiverpeak Mountains:

"Here we are again, surrounded by icicles and mounds of frosty snow."

"I could sure go for a mug of warm cider."

"I for one am glad we're no longer in Ascalon."

"I need a warmer coat."

"I never much cared for King Adelbern."

"Now would be a good time for some of that shark fin soup."

Kryta:

"Have you ever had shark fin soup? It's quite delightful."

"How do you think I'd look in a sarong?"

"I've never liked the sound of seagulls."

Maguuma Jungle:

"I think that plant just licked its lips."

"I'm not quite sure what to make of this place."

"Is that... yes, I think it's fungus."

"It's quite humid here."

"The plants here remind me of someone I once knew."

Crystal Desert:

"Can you believe that this was all at one time under water?"

"I think I have a rock in my booties."

"The mirage is an amazing phenomenon."

Ring of Fire Island Chain:

"Don't get too close. The lava burns."

"I should have been an elementalist."

"Lyssa save me from this heat."

"The heat rising from the lava pools is quite interesting to watch."

"The silk in my garments is sticking to my skin."

[edit] Battle quotes

"I challenge you, hooligan."

"I despise these little conflicts."

"I shall make you bleed from your ears."

"The gauntlet has been thrown. Your time is near."

"You've made me very angry."

[edit] Notes

• Although Dunham is a mesmer, he uses a warrior's animation sequences and emotes instead.
• Despite being labeled an "Enchanter" henchman, he does not actually have enchantment skills.
• Dunham's skills were updated in the 22 October 2009 update.

[edit] Trivia

• The armor Dunham wears was available to players during the Prophecies beta, but it was removed prior to release.
