Talox
Monster type
Spectral
Location
Talox can be spawned in Abyss by closing 5 Spectral Rifts found in Westminster Catacombs level 1-10 with 25% chance and level 11-15 with 100% chance.
Abilities
His Lieutenants have the same invulnerable period that players have after they spawn, meaning they cannot be immediately damaged after they appear. The boss can launch multiple fireballs at players, and heal himself, which can be prevented by poisoning him.
Talox will spawn a pack of Lieutenants with different abilities in a specified order. The SFX of their damage type will penetrate the players shields resulting in a quick Stun, Phase, Shock, Poison or Ignite however, their attacks will continue to normally damage your shields first. The SFX attack strength is so high the effects will probably proc immediately after using status removers. There are 5 types of Lieutenants, and Talox will spawn packs in the following order:
- Electric Lieutenant
- Using an electric beam at range, and an electric nova at close range which heals them while casting.
- Spectral Lieutenant
- Using Spectral Bolts and occasionally spawning a Tempest cloud which will do a deadly amount of damage should the player stand under it.
- Physical Lieutenant
- Shoots multiple physical projectiles at the player. Using a mini Smackdown on the player starting with a few seconds windup, they will first mark the player with a white beam which follows the marked target. After the mark appears under the player (similar to the mark of Hellfire attacks) the beam will no longer follow, and the player has a few seconds to get out of the way. The mini Smackdown attack will be deadly should the player stay in range.
- Physical Lieutenants will be instantly resurrected 2 times after being killed, but the resurrected version will have less amount of HP than the original.
- Toxic Lieutenant
- Shoots a toxic projectile that penetrates any surface and will hit the player, leaving a toxic field around the impact point. These Lieutenants are more likely to flee from players than others, but continue to attack from very high distances.
- Fire Lieutenant
- Shoots multiple fireballs at players, and casts fire fields at melee range. These Lieutenants will attack more aggressively than others.
- Mixed Wave
- The boss will spawn each of the Lieutenants in a pack.
After the last wave the boss will continue to spawn these packs in the said order again, but the Lieutenants will have more damage and HP. The boss will become vulnerable after you defeat the second stage, and will be able to spawn 2 more of the Mixed Wave.
