Behavior and Mechanics

Lava Beast's Travel Path.png

  • Lava Beast is a free-roaming boss, meaning that the boss is free to travel or be lured to anywhere in the map as the fight will be mostly centered around surviving its abilities. The boss will always try to move towards the nearest player as they are the primary targets.
  • The Lava Beast always spawns from "Ore Deposit" spawn point and will usually traverse through one specific path towards the core at the top level of the map unless aggroed otherwise.
  • The Lava Beast's attack patterns generally cycles through four special abilities in random order. Close-combat melee attacks only occurs when the Lava Beast is close enough to a target.
  • The Lava Beast has 46.835% damage resistance. However during its 7-seconds stun phase, it'll take additional 50% more damage.
  • The Lava Beast is untargetable by towers but would still be vulnerable to defense damage. It is also unaffected by conventional crowd control effects.
  • The Lava Beast's attacks are able to damage cores and towers or blockades.


Close-combat Attacks

The Lava Beast will perform these basic melee attacks randomly whenever a target is close enough. Each of these attacks is guaranteed to deal knockback. Despite having three different styles of attack, there are no notable differences between them.
