The Sinkhole Layout
Events in The Dread Pit
Event #1 — 0/5 Leviathan Manipulators slain
Trash Mobs in this Area
- Interrupt Kobyss Witherer's
Abyssal Surge cast. - Beware of Kobyss Bonechewer's
Scavenge buff, any spare
interrupts should go for
Throw Junk cast. - Watch out for the amount of Slippery Syphoners you pull, although they have lower
health, they will
Crunch you and cast Corrosive Bile. - Interrupt Leviathan Manipulator's
Necrotic Bolt and
avoid their
Defiling Breath frontal. If you engage with Kobyss Necromancer
they have exactly the same abilities as the Leviathan Manipulator. - Beware of Kobyss Trickster and its uninterruptable
Illusive Step
cast, he will create an illusion that will continue to attack you (Pale Illusion)
and hit you with
Cleave frontal cone ability. - Kobyss Spearfisher are the worst mob in this area due to their
Spearfish cast, which grips you in melee and immediately hits you with
Slashing Rend.
Event #2 — 0/7 Leviathan Balt destroyed
Destroy 7 Leviathan Balts.
Leviathan Caller Boss Guide
- Interrupt
Abyssal Surge cast. - Focus and kill any Slamming Tentacles arround the boss, else he will gain an immunity to any damage source. It is best to try your best and cleave them with Leviathan Caller.
