"Mastering Arcane Lineage: Ultimate Boss Defeat Guide"

Bosses in Arcane Lineage offer a thrilling spectrum of challenges, ranging from those easily tackled by beginners to formidable foes that require multiple teams to conquer. Each boss presents unique mechanics that demand strategic planning and patience to overcome effectively. Defeating these bosses rewards players with some of the game's most coveted loot and items. Dive into our comprehensive Arcane Lineage Boss guide to gear up for the ultimate showdown.

Arcane Lineage Boss List

King Slime

King Slime is considered a mini-boss due to its relatively lower threat level compared to other bosses in Arcane Lineage. However, it remains a formidable challenge for low-level players and does not yield soul points.

King Slime Location

King Slime spawns after 100 Slimes are defeated on the server. It appears around the city nearest to where the last Slime was killed, and a notification on the Quest Board alerts players to the active King Slime quest. The quest involves two steps: finding and then defeating the King Slime. There's a 30-minute global cooldown on the server for this quest.

King Slime Fighting Strategy

With 400 HP (600 if Corrupted), King Slime is the least durable boss in Arcane Lineage. Its main tactic involves summoning additional Slimes, which can overwhelm your party if not managed properly. Additionally, it employs AOE poison attacks, making it crucial to come equipped with potions and cleansing abilities. Focus on clearing the summoned Slimes before targeting King Slime directly, as its poison attacks only inflict status effects without direct damage.

King Slime Drops and Rewards

Defeating King Slime offers the following potential drops:

• Random Tier 1 Equipment
• Slime Buckler
• Gelat Ring

Completing the King Slime event from the Quest Board yields these rewards:

• Ferrus Skin Potion
• Small Health Potion
• Essence
• Gold

Yar’thul, the Blazing Dragon

Yar’thul is a fire-type boss that unleashes Fire and Inferno-based attacks, inflicting Inferno and Burning stacks on the party. It's resistant to fire and physical damage but vulnerable to Hex damage.

Yar’thul Location

To encounter Yar’thul, venture deep into the Desert to find Mount Thul, an active volcano formed by Yar’thul’s intense heat. Navigate the dark corridors within Mount Thul to confront the Blazing Dragon at its heart.

Yar’thul Fighting Strategy

Boasting 1200 HP (1800 if Corrupted), Yar’thul compensates for its lower health with devastating damage output. Most of its attacks apply Inferno and Burning effects, making this a race against time to defeat the dragon before succumbing to the flames. When its health drops below 50%, Yar’thul enters a second phase, summoning meteors that stun and reduce healing. Quick action is required to end the fight before the meteors take their toll. Accessories like the Dragon Ring and at least Pristine-level gear can ease this battle. The Corrupted version gains lifesteal.

Yar’thul Drops and Rewards

Defeating Yar’thul guarantees these rewards:

• Absolute Radiance
• Permafrost Curse
• Wild Impulse
• Heavenly Prayer
• Breath of Fungyir
• Narhana’s Sigil

Possible drops include:

Thorian, the Rotten

Originally an animal in the Deeproot Canopy, Thorian has become a towering abomination with numerous red eyes and tentacles, cursing all who approach. It's resistant to most elements but significantly vulnerable to Holy damage.

Thorian Location

Thorian lurks in the deepest reaches of the Cess Grounds within the Deeproot Canopy. Upon entering the Cess Grounds, head right to encounter this massive, unmistakable foe.

Thorian Fighting Strategy

With 2600 HP (3900 if Corrupted), Thorian presents a complex battle with unique mechanics. It heals 150% of damage dealt if hit twice in a row with the same attack type, requiring a diverse attack strategy. Thorian is resistant to all damage except Holy, which deals 135% damage, and slightly vulnerable to fire. Below 50% health, it unleashes a devastating attack, inflicting Plague, Curse, and Hexed with a 15-turn cooldown.

Thorian Drops and Rewards

Defeating Thorian guarantees these rewards:

• Absolute Radiance
• Permafrost Curse
• Wild Impulse
• Heavenly Prayer
• Breath of Fungyir

Metrom’s Vessel

Once a heroic figure, Metrom’s Vessel now serves as a host for Metrom, sealed in a Temporal Jail to curb its destructive power.

Metrom’s Vessel Location

Metrom’s Vessel is a Raid Boss that spawns on a global timer. To engage in this battle, you'll need a Void Key, obtained by defeating corrupted versions of other bosses. Await the server-wide announcement for Metrom’s Vessel's spawn and location.

Metrom’s Vessel Fighting Strategy

With an immense 10,000 HP (15,000 if Corrupted), Metrom’s Vessel is a formidable statpile. It features two phases with distinct moves, mechanics, and high damage output. In the first phase, its black wings grant significant damage negation; destroying these wings requires applying status effects and debuffs, but increases its damage output as fewer wings remain. Timing wing destruction is crucial to avoid early access to second-phase attacks. Metrom’s Vessel also summons Shadeblades, which deal high damage despite their low health. Prolonged fights increase the risk of Oblivion, an undodgeable move that deals 50% max HP damage.

In the second phase, Metrom’s Vessel shatters the Temporal Jail, altering the wing mechanic to include Offensive and Defensive modes. The Offensive mode boosts its damage and that of its minions, while Defensive mode offers high damage resistance and a Thorns Aura. The Mini Shadebringer is an additional threat, attacking whenever a player fails to dodge. Effective team coordination and constant application of debuffs and damage-reducing effects are essential to overcome this endurance test.

Phase 1 Attacks

Arkhaia and Seraphon

Information on Arkhaia and Seraphon is limited due to their rarity and complexity. These bosses are not recommended for beginners, even with a strong team, as they involve numerous intricate mechanics.

To unlock Arkhaia, reach rank 20 in the Cult of Thanasius. Arkhaia has 7000 HP and employs a damage-over-time strategy. Defeating Arkhaia offers the option to start anew with the Inferion race, a rare and powerful starting race in Arcane Lineage.
