Bossnia boss

Vulkaris, the Ancient Salamander

Type: Bossnia boss
Level: 85
Region: Bossnia
Where: Bossnia

The ancient salamander of Bossnia's Scorched Lands, with an ember bite and a trail of magma. At half health it exposes the Lava Heart, opens a river of lava in front of it and chases one player at a time.

Vulkaris abilities

Ember Bite

Bites in front: the 3-tile cone burns.

Open Heart

It closes up behind an obsidian shield worth 1.5% of its health for 5 s: break the shield and it is stunned for 5 s, taking 50% more; otherwise the lava explodes within 6 tiles around it.

Salamander's Mark

Marks someone (never her tank) and chases only them for 6 s, faster: the marked player runs, the others attack.

Obsidian Rain

Fourteen obsidian shards fall around it (radius 8): don't step on the marked tiles.

Party mechanic

Break the Open Heart shield and run if you are the one marked by Salamander's Mark.

Every boss warns before attacking: the danger tiles light up in color on the ground and a square grows until it fills; anyone still there when the warning ends takes the hit. Two-stage bosses transform at half health, are immune during the transformation and start using new skills. Near the end they enter desperation and attack faster. Bosses cannot be stunned, rooted or slowed. Every boss and miniboss also has a group mechanic: a shield to break, towers to occupy, a hit to split, spikes, fixation and helpers that protect them.
