Face the Shadow Sorcerer, a three-phase, dodgeable and blockable boss encounter that hides its true form until you destroy its mortal host. Featuring over 20 animations, striking visual effects, and summoned allies, this nightmare-inspired fight challenges you to expose and strike the boss’s eye at exactly the right moment.
Encounter Overview
- Cloaked Void Wizard
- The Shadow Sorcerer appears as a dark, cloaked figure channeling purple arcane energy.
- Uses varied area-of-effect attacks (void blasts, sweeping energy attacks) that can be dodged or blocked with careful timing.
- Players must chip away at its cloak until its host is defeated and the true form’s eye is exposed.
- Rising Nightmares
- Once the host falls, shadowy hands burst from the ground to strike at players.
- A nightmarish face intermittently emerges from its chest, unleashing new, more dangerous patterns of void energy.
- Damage ramps up: stay mobile to avoid tendrils and periodic dark-energy eruptions.
- Demon of the Dark
- The boss fully transforms into a ravenous blackhole demon, centered around its exposed, glowing eye.
- Waves of hellfire rain down from above, requiring constant movement to avoid arena-spanning blasts.
- An army of shadowed knights and nightmarish beasts spawns repeatedly, forcing you to split focus between adds and the demon’s eye-based attacks.
- Periodic arcane void lasers sweep across the battlefield.
