How to Beat Blath

Blath doesn't have any special mechanics to take into account in order to beat it. However, it does have a special attack that can be devastating.

This attack has Blath pull in all targets towards the center, then summon multiple glowing floors, which are the same as those scattered along the path earlier, and multiple AOE explosions, creating a maze.

When this happens, players need to get out of the maze and as far away from Blath as possible all while avoiding the glowing floors. Getting stunned by a barrier will almost always lead to a death.

How to Beat Belrog

There's only one (1) special mechanic to note when fighting Belrog. The mini boss has a special attack very similar to Blath where it pulls targets towards the center, then creates glowing floors. However, in Belrog's case, players will be trapped inside the glowing floors.

In order to get out of the enclosure, players have to interact with the floating dark orbs on the edges of the enclosure to remove the glowing floors. Moreover, after removing the glowing floors, players must get far away from Belrog as possible to avoid the AOE explosions.

How to Remove Glowing Floors

Shaikal Mechanics
Interact With the Devices

Interact With the Devices

During the fight with Shaikal, the arena has glowing floors that divides it into three (3) sections. These glowing floors are also the same ones found scattered across the dungeon, wherein they deal damage and stun players who step on them.

The only way to remove the glowing floors is by interacting with the devices located at the end of each barrier. Interacting with these objects will remove the corresponding barrier for several seconds, allowing players to rotate.

Shaikal Attack Patterns

Dark Nova

This attack has Shaikal raise its arms, charge up, then unleash a ring of dark energy. This attack is blockable and is always the first attack.

Astral Zones

This attack has Shaikal create purple zones beneath two targets. The only way to avoid this attack is to simply move away.

Red Sinkhole

This attack has Shikal become red and mark a target with a red orb. The red orb will disappear after a short duration and a large AoE spawns on the ground that pulls targets and deals damage.

The best way to avoid this attack is to have the marked target move away from the rest of the party. Once the AoE spawns, that player must then move away from the area.

Void Breath

This attack has Shaikal mark a target with a purple orb. The purple orb will disappear after a short duration and Shaikal will face the marked target and unleash a wave of purple matter that follows the target.

The only way to avoid this attack is to remove the barriers that divides the arena by interacting with the devices at the end of each barrier and relocating to a safer spot.
