With that boss every time someone is hit by an aoe it increases the damage of the Black honeymoon skill (I think that is the name)

If you look on the ground some of the symbols will glow, each glowing symbol indicates how many people have been hit.

A party with a healer will be fine if 2 symbols glow (2 people got hit by the aoes) but 3 will more than likely kill you all, in a party without a healer, aim for 0 - 1 symbols glowing.

Boss wll use an aoe that you avoid by gathering near her then one that requires you to move away, or in the reverse order.

When the boss has an eye on them make sure to look away when she casts that skill.

I hope this helps with your next encounter and enjoy xD

I did it on my first try with a random group, though i got lucky to get both tank and healer there. She is not that hard really: get in, get out, turn away, repeat.

this boss is a walking joke. how do people manage to wipe to BASIC aoe dodgeing and looking away? as thats all the boss ever does.

heck the floor 40 boss is harder to solo than this one lol.

Floor 50 is easy. Dunno why people have trouble with it. Hell the whole PoTD is easy from floor 1 - 100.

People whining about how "easy" things are when people are obviously having trouble with it are just denying reality and being trolls.

floor 1-50 harder than 50-100

Disagree. Floor 51 - 60 is probably the hardest because of those Pots that can one shot you if you're not careful or if there is more than 1 and you don't look away. Probably the most dangerous enemy in the entire first 100 floors imo (including a few of the boses)

While I won't disagree that just saying 'it's easy!' is not helpful.


The boss is mechanically simple.

1 skill you need to look away for "Cold Feet"
2 aoes centered on the boss, "In Health"
one of which requires standing next to the boss, the other away, and they alternate.
1 set of additional aoe markers from the gargolyes that show up
1 unavoidable raid damage "Black Honeymoon"

The complexity comes in the way these mechanics work together.

Cold Feet makes players walk around without player input.
Which usually leads to players getting hit by In Health, adding stacks to the unavoidable
Black Honeymoon, which is buffed by the people who fail the aoes.


All people really have to do is turn away for Cold Feet, and walk out of the aoes.
The fight can be summed up in very few words.

"Look away for Cold Feet, avoid aoes."
