The Waterlogged
Level 24 Monster · The Sunken Mine
The Waterlogged is one of the monster threats a player meets in Desperados Destiny, sitting at level 24.
Field notes
Former miners who drowned in the flood and were never recovered — bloated undead that breathe water and drag players under. The mine was sealed in a controlled flood to prevent a gas explosion; the trapped miners rose to pull others into the deep.
What you are walking into
The Waterlogged is level 24, carries 312 health, and is classed Stalker. That makes it a late-game threat for a well-equipped character. It leans on pressure, degrading your draws before a card is turned; steady hands matter more than big ones. Every exchange resolves through the Destiny Deck: you draw five cards, choose what to hold, and the resulting poker hand decides how the action lands. Suit matches amplify the result, so the same fight against The Waterlogged plays out differently each time you take it on.
Where to find The Waterlogged
The Waterlogged is encountered at The Sunken Mine. You will need to have discovered and travelled to that location before it can appear as a target, and travel between regions carries its own risks — routes are rolled for interception, and a bad roll puts an encounter between you and your destination. The full entry for The Sunken Mine covers what else is there.
What it drops
A kill pays 384 experience and between $9 and $24. Its loot table can yield Waterlogged Ore, Silver Vein Raw and Animal Bones. Drops are rolled per kill, so a full set takes repeat hunting. The first time you kill any species it is also recorded in your Field Guide, which pays a large one-off experience bonus and counts toward the Guide's completion milestones.
