Attacks
From the start
Noose
Telegraph: Tether around you
A noose ties you to a 240 px radius for 4 s; pulling at the edge locks you and hurts, even while invulnerable.
How to dodge: Stay inside the noose or dash at the edge to break it.
Gallows
Telegraph: Circles in sequence
Six circles drop ahead of you, predicting where you walk; each drop releases a Hanged One.
How to dodge: The circles predict your path: stop or change direction.
Cone
Telegraph: Cone ahead
A cone-shaped breath in front of it.
How to dodge: Step to the side or go behind it.
Slam
Telegraph: Circle on the ground
A circular ground slam — step out of the ring.
How to dodge: Leave the circle before the impact.

When it drops to 50% health
Harvest Moon
Supreme Skill
First a disk explodes around the boss, then a wide ring outside it. Stay away at first, then step in close.
Enrage: below 30% health or after 90 s on the field, it attacks twice as fast and speeds up.
Entrance
At 50% health it swaps its repertoire and casts 25% faster.
Execution
Executable below 8% health.
Once executable, it staggers for 2 s without moving or attacking, and its health holds at 1%. Get within 150 px and press Execute: a finishing blow, invulnerability, +25% health and +50 gold.
Elements and resistances
No creature resists or is weak to any element: fire, ice, arcane and physical hurt the same.
Elites and bosses cannot be frozen or stunned by shock (shock becomes a 15% slow), and each stack of chill slows them only 4%. Bosses take only 12% of knockback.
Bestiary reward
This creature has no entry in the in-game bestiary yet.
How to face it
- Every attack is telegraphed on the ground: read the shape and leave before it closes. Keep a medium distance to see the next warning.
- At half health it stops, turns invulnerable for 1.2 s and unleashes its supreme attack: save your dash for that moment.
- The dash grants invulnerability: use it to cross warnings you cannot walk around in time.
