Why is Oxyotl so hard to kill?

[TBLackey]

I know the little runt has 50% missile resistance.

But my chosen of Tzeentch are bashing the living **** out of him, but hardly doing any damage. I can't see any physical resistance on the unit card - why is Oxyotl so hard to kill?

High melee defense?

You only have 4-5 models attempting to hit him. He has at least 45 MD(and can possibly get it to above 60 with Slippery).

A Chosen of Tzeentch model, if they hit(which is usually 35% chance or less), will deal maybe 40 damage.

As a result, they will deal very little damage, slowly over time.
Engage him with a couple of heroes, Aspiring Champions or Spawns, if you want his health to drop a bit faster.

blast him down with warp fire.

1: He's small, so not a lot get to attack him at once. Best choice is to have a character or two whale on him.
2: He's got high MD, enough that half the attacks of your chosen are going to miss.
3: Chosen of tzeentch are one of the weaker chosen, in a way. (In another, they're the strongest, but for this particular purpose, not the best.).

He has a clicky giving +24 MD extra - that'll be a slight problem.

Finally, his magic gear is unknown, but that CAN make a huge difference.

With that said, if you have a melee hero or lord attacking him, he's not going to have a good day.

Let me put it this way: You remember seeing Yoda fight during the Star Wars prequels? That's him.

Let's not forget about poison, which reduces weapon damage, making the hits you do get on him even less effective.

Those knights are probably also knocking him down, which makes him immune to damage while he's recovering.

Does it also make them immune to stuff like single target spells? Like Spirit Leech?

No, only hit animations.

There are a lot of Legendary Lord's that are straight annoying to kill.... Vlad and Sigvald(Ohhh Sigvald...) are the worst I have ever been up against, so far.
