==Notes==
* Each surge will include Veteran thralls that cannot be knocked out and may also have animals. Come prepared.
* The thralls spawned from the different focus altars corresponds with their location in the Exiled Lands (Nordheimers and Cimmerians in the north, Black Hand north-east, Lemurians east, Relic Hunters west, Darfari in the south and Dogs of the Desert in the center).
* Calamities will only spawn animals, undead, lizardmen or bat demons depending on type. Generally not worth the resources to summon them.
* Thralls from the surges will (depending on the surge) wear uniquely colored armor. The Amazons, for example, use a yellow version of the Darfari Skin Epic armor set. This is a unique armor set and not simply one that has been dyed, although it has similar if not the same stats as the original.
* Similar to the armor, some thralls, for example Manhunters and Amazons, come with permanent warpaints. These are unique white versions of Aspect Warpaints and do not give attribute bonuses. Applying a different warpaint will cause this warpaint to be permanently removed, being replaced with the new one and reverting to bare skin when that wears off.
