Strategies
Wraiths are interesting in that they pose little threat for players who focus heavily on either physical attacks or magic, but are fairly annoying for players that try using both. Despite their physical resistance, they have so little health that characters with solid physical attacks can put them down without issue, although the mana burn might become a problem. Magic using characters can just BURNDAYRAZ and never have to worry about mana burn. However, unless you're close to leveling up, if you fight most monsters by switching between magic and normal attacks, you'll be in for trouble.
Boss info
The Tormented One has all the same traits as you'd expect of a level 10 wraith, but its physical resistance is up to 60%, making head-on combat the last thing you should do when fighting. To make matters worse, you cannot use APHEELSIK on the Tormented One. The best strategy, considering its low health, is to spam BURNDAYRAZ constantly. Only once your mana resources are completely depleted this way should you attack the Tormented One in close combat.
