How to Beat Zaka the Abyssal Worm




Watch for Attack Indicators

Diablo Immortal - Watch for Attack Indicators
Most of Zaka's attacks will have warnings or red indicators that appear on the ground. Pay attention to red circles and zones forming beneath your feet and immediately leave their area to avoid taking large amounts of damage.

Use Health Potions Wisely

Diablo Immortal - Use Health Potions Wisely
Due to each of Zaka's attacks dealing significant amounts of damage, efficient usage of Health Potions is key to surviving throughout the whole fight.

Try to conserve Health Potions by avoiding Zaka's telegraphed attacks and using the Health Globes that drop after depleting one of the boss's health bars.

Clear Minions Quickly

Diablo Immortal - Clear Minions Quickly
Zaka can spawn additional enemies during the fight, which can end up distracting you and making you accidentally get hit by Zaka's heavy-hitting attacks.

Quickly defeat each minion the boss spawns to give yourself an easier time during the fight.

Defeat Zaka's Heart and the Parasitic Maw

Diablo Immortal - Zaka
The boss's final phase takes place within Zaka's body, where you fight the worm's heart and the Parasitic Maw. Quickly take these two bosses down to complete the boss fight.

Zaka the Abyssal Worm Attack Patterns

Fire Spit

Diablo Immortal - Fire Spit

Zaka spits globs of fire that leave damaging pools of flame on the ground. Avoid this attack by moving away from the red circles on the floor that mark the spit's landing spots.

Worm Bite

Diablo Immortal - Worm Bite

Zaka slightly rears back before lunging forward and taking a large impactful bite that deals heavy damage and can hit multiple times. You can avoid this attack by running away from Zaka before the move connects.

Leaping Chomp

Diablo Immortal - Leaping Chomp

Zaka rears far back before leaping and chomping down on the arena, breaking part of the platform, dealing heavy damage, and knocking the player backward.

This attack happens each time you deplete one of Zaka's health bars and has multiple warning indicators, so react accordingly by running out of the attack's radius.

Magma Bombs

Diablo Immortal - Magma Bombs

Zaka spits out magma bombs that explode after a three-second delay. After detonation, these magma bombs will knock you back and leave a lingering pool of magma on the floor.

Keep your distance from the bombs when they land and avoid the magma pools until they dissipate.

Steam Breath

Diablo Immortal - Steam Breath

Zaka lets out a cone of steam from its mouth, damaging the player and pushing them backward. You can avoid the Steam Breath by moving to the immediate left or right of Zaka's mouth.

Fire Breath

Diablo Immortal - Fire Breath

Zaka lets out a sweeping breath of fire, starting from the center of the arena and moving towards the left or right side. This Fire Breath also produces damaging lingering flames on the ground.

You can mitigate damage from this attack by moving towards the opposite side of where Zaka sweeps its Fire Breath.

Parasitic Maw Attack Patterns

Blood Spears

Diablo Immortal - Blood Spears

The Parasitic Maw rears backward before letting out a semicircular wave of blood spears. You can easily avoid this move by staying near the center of the boss and running away at an angle when it starts the attack.

Blood Laser

Diablo Immortal - Maw Blood Laser

The Parasitic Maw charges up and releases a blood laser, which deals heavy damage on contact. Avoid this attack by running away from the red rectangular area that indicates the blood laser's position.

Modified Blood Laser in Second Phase

When the Parasitic Maw enters its second phase, its Blood Laser attack will now happen three times in a row, so watch out for this attack variation when it occurs.

Blood Bombs

Diablo Immortal - Blood Bombs

The Parasitic Maw charges up and releases barrages of blood bombs, coming down in a semicircular area. Avoid this attack by running away from the impact points of the blood bombs.
