Feather Ray

feather ray, first boss of skydeep cenote

The first boss of this duꦉn🌠geon is the Feather Ray. Its attacks and mechanics are detailed below.

Attack Name

Type

Details

Immersion

Roomwide AoE

Deals damage to all party members. Use AoE healing to recover.

Troublesome Tail

Debuff

Inflicts all party members with the Nuisance debuff, which will cause them to mirror the boss's next attack.

Worrisome Wave

Cone AoE

Turns towards a random player and fires a conal AoE at them. After a few seconds, each player will then mirror this attack, firing a conal AoE in the direction they are facing꧂. Turn away from other party members to avoid hitting them with your AoE.

Hydro Ring

Ring AoE

Deals damage in a large ring AoE with a safe area around the boss. This attack will also cover the edge of the arena in a dangerous AoE that deals damage if you touch it.

Blowing Bubbles

AoE

Feather Ray will begin firing out bubbles in all directions. These wi💖ll move slowly, but take care to dodge them.

Bubble Bomb/Rolling Current

AoE/Moving AoE

Several large bubbles will be created around the arena. Then, the boss will use Rolling Current to move them to either the left or right. There will be a gap between bubbles; find where the gap will be moved to and position yourself there to avoid this combo.

Trouble Bubbles

Special

The boss will first use Troublesome Tail to inflict everyone with Nuisance, then cast Blowing Bubbles. While bubbles are fired out of the boss, you will also begin firing them from yourself. Spread out to make it easier for all party members to dodge all the bu🧸bbles.

The Feather Ray will repeat these mechanics until it is defeated. The Bubble Bomb and Rolling Current combo has the highest chance of catching you off guard, as determining where the safe area will be can be difficult. Also, be sure to watch your positioning when inflicted with Nuisance so that you aren't accidentally hurting your party members with your AoE🎶s.

Firearms

firearms, second boss of skydeep cenote

The second boss of the Skydeep Cenote is Fir⭕earms. Here are all of its mechanics.

Attack Name

Type

Details

Dynamic Dominance

Roomwide AoE

Deals damage to all party members and covers the edge of the arena in a dangerous AoE. Avoid moving ꦦhere as you avoid the boss's other 🎐attacks.

Mirror Maneuver/Thunderlight Burst

Line AoE

The boss will create a blue mirror and a yellow orb somewhere in the arena. Then, it will jump to another side of the arena and use Thunderlight Burst, firing a line AoE at the mirror, which will then be deflected toward the yellow orb. When these two make contact, the yellow orb will explode, dealing high damage in a large area.


On subsequent uses of this attack, two mirrors and three orbs will be created, causing Thunderblight to bounce twice before hitting one of the𝓰 orbs. Follow the path of the line AoE carefully and move to avoid it.

Ancient Artillery/Emergent Artillery

AoE

Firearms will summon two orange glyphs on random tiles in the arena. Then, it will cast Emergent Artillery, causing these tiles to expand in cardinal directions before exploding. Follow the trajectory of the incoming ﷽AoEs and move accordingly to 🌞find a safe spot.


Subsequent uses of Ancient Artillery will create three orange tiles, which will then cover even more of the arena when Emergent Artillery is used. Additionally, players will be inflicted with Thunderlight Furry immediately after Emergent Artillery resolves, marking each player with an AoE Marker. Spread out to avoid overlapping these.

Pummel

Tankbuster

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

Firearms will repeat these attacks until it is defeated. The most important mechanic to watch out for during this fight is Mirror Maneuver. Following the path of the line AoE can be difficult, especial♈ly later😼 in the fight when there are more mirrors and orbs.

Maulskull

maulskull, final boss of skydeep cenote

The massive Maulskull is the final boss of the Skydeep Cenote🎀. Here ♓are its attacks.

Attack Name

Type

Details

Stonecarver

AoE

Maulskull will channel power into each of its fists before striking that half of the arena. Its fists will light up in the order they are going to strike in, so watch carefully to de🌳termine which half of the arena to move to first.

Skullcrush

Knockback/AoE Markers

Creates a knockback AoE in the center of the arena, pushing all players away from this point. Just before being knocked back, all players will be marked with AoE Markers. To avoid falling off, position yourself in the southwest or southeast of the knockback circle, as close as you can get before you're inside the AoE. Immediately after being knocked back, spread away from other players to avoid hitting them with your AoE.

Maulwork

AoE

A series of three sets of circle AoEs followed by either a large line AoE down the center of the arena or two diagonal line AoEs 🧸on either side of the arena. Move out of the telegraphꦉs to avoid taking damage.

Deep Thunder

Stack

Creates a Stack pillar near the north part of the arena. All players will need to group up on this pillar to spread out the damage of the incoming attack, which will hit multiple times in a row.

Ringing Blows

Knockback/AoE

Combines the effects of Skullcrush and Stonecarver. You will be knocked back from the blue AoE at the north part of the arena before Maulskull strikes each half of the arena. Remember to keep track of whic💎h fist charges up fir⭕st as you are knocked back.

Wrought Fire

AoE Tankbuster

Deals high damage to the Tank in a circle around them. The Tank should move away from the rest of the party while using mitigating cooldowns.

Colossal Impact

Knockback/Stack Marker

Creates a blue stack marker in the southwest or southeast corner of the arena. Then, a random player will be marked with a Stack Marker. Group up before the knockback, then stay together until the Stack Marker ꦯresolves to spread out its damag💃e.


This attack will then be repeated, but players will be targeted with AoE Markers instead of a Stack Marker, similar to Skullcrush. Spread out after being knocked back.

Ashlayer

Roomwide AoE

Deals damage to all party members. Recover with AoE healing.

Maulskull will repeat these attacks until it is defeated. All of the knockbacks in this fight need to be positioned very carefully, as they will push you back pretty far, and falling off the edge of the arena means instant death. Othe🍸r than that, the AoEs in this fight should be fairly simple to avoi🍬d.
