Dungeon Walkthrough

the antitower from afar

In the first section of this dungeon, kill each group of enemies before enabling the jump pad and moving to the next area. This part will be slow, as you can only pull one group of enemies at once, but there will be opportunities for larger pulls later in the dungeon, if you and your party are up for it.

As you progress through the section after the first boss, watch for the doors that appear around the edges of the path. These will periodically release fire sprites onto the field, which should 🔯be quickly picked up.

Similarly, in the third section of the Antitower, some enemies will fall from the ceiling and ambush you. Be ready to🔯 group these up with the rest of the enemies in the are💮a and burn them down with AoE attacks.

Zuro Roggo

zuro roggo, first boss of the antitower dungeon

The fir🔯st boss of the Antitower is Zuro Roggo, who will𝓰 use the following attacks and mechanics.

Attack Name

Type

Details

Water Bomb

AoE

  • Zuro Roggo will target random spots around the arena with AoE circles. Avoid these as necessary.

Discordant Harmony

Summon/AoE

  • The boss will summon musical bubbles around the arena that explode after a short time, dealing damage and inflicting a debuff that reduces damage dealt. Avoid these by moving away from them until they explode.

Odious Croak

AoE

  • Zuro Roggo will deal continuous damage in a cone-shaped AoE to his front. This attack persists for around ten seconds, and can be avoided by moving out of the area.

Frog Song

Transform/Adds

  • The boss will turn two players into frogs and summon two additional frog adds. Then, the boss and adds will begin singing the Frog Song, dealing damage at set intervals to the entire party. Additionally, the players transformed into frogs will be repeatedly targeted with AoE attacks.
    • To end the song, kill the two frog adds. This will transform the frog-players back to normal, and the boss's attacks will end.

Toy Hammer

Tankbuster

  • Deals high damage to the Tank and inflicts them with Concussion for ten seconds, disabling attacks and movement. Then, Zuro Roggo will target them with Odious Croak. To avoid being hit with the full force of the boss's Croak, the Healer should cast Esuna on the Tank to clear the Concussion debuff. Then, the Tank will be free to escape the Croak AoE.

Zuro Roggo will repeat these attacks until he is defeated. Odious Croak persists for a while, so be sure to move out of the way of this attack while also dodging Discordant Harmony and Water Bombs.

Ziggy

Gyrating Glare

AoE

Stardust

Summon/AoE

  • Summons four Stardust rocks around the arena, which will explode in an AoE when they are summoned before remaining on the field for Ziggy's next attack, Jittering Jounce.

Jittering Jounce

Targeted AoE

  • Ziggy will target a random player and prepare to fire a blast at them, indicated by a tether. This attack will deal high damage, but can be avoided by moving behind one of the Stardust rocks. In this case, the rock will explode, dealing damage in an AoE circle around it.

Jittering Glare

AoE

  • Targets a player with a thin cone AoE to the front of the boss. Move out of the AoE indicator to avoid.

Jittering Jab

Tankbuster

  • Deals high damage to the Tank. Use defensive cooldowns to mitigate this damage.

Ziggy will repeat these mechanics until he is defeated. Hide behind the Stardust rocks and avoid𒁏 AoEs as necessary to make it through this fight.

Calcabrina

calca and brina dolls, the final boss of the antitower dungeon

The final boss of the Antitower is Calcabrina. At the beginning of the fight, you will face six Calca and Brina Dolls, who will form into Calcabrina after they are all defeated. The 𓆏boss's attacks and mechanics are deta𝔉iled below.

Attack Name

Type

Details

Calca and Brina

Adds/AoE

  • As mentioned above, the fight will begin with you and your party facing three Calca Dolls and three Brina dolls. The dolls will move into various formations around the arena and use the following attacks.
    • Calca: Attacks with a cone AoE to its front.
    • Brina: Attacks with a ring-shaped AoE.
    • As you destroy each doll, watch their positions when they change formations. After all six dolls are down, they will form together into Calcabrina, and the actual boss fight will begin.

Terrifying Glance

Gaze

  • Calcabrina will target a random player with a gaze marker. Then, she will blast the area toward the player with a cone AoE that inflicts Confusion, forcing you to attack players randomly for ten seconds. To avoid this, turn your back to the boss so you are facing away from her.

Knockout

Tankbuster

  • Deals high damage to the Tank. Use defensive cooldowns to mitigate this damage as necessary.

Brace

Parry

  • Calcabrina will grant herself a directional parry buff, putting up a shield on her back and sides. Attacking the boss from these directions will cause the attack to be nullified, and Calcabrina will counterattack with Breach, dealing damage and knocking back the attacking player slightly. When Brace is active, Calcabrina can only be damaged from the front.

Dollhouse

Transform

  • Calcabrina will turn two players into dolls, then begin to continuously attack with Slapstick, dealing damage to all players. The transformed players will move around the room at random, unable to attack. The two able-bodied players need to destroy the dolls to free the transformed players. If one of the transformed players is the Healer, they should be saved first. After both players are free, Calcabrina will stop using Slapstick and the fight will resume as usual.

Calcabrina will repeat these attacks until she is defeated. Be sure to quickly break transformed players free and turn away during Terrifying Glance. After Calca🦩brina is down,▨ the Antitower will be complete.
