World Boss Altar: Something Something Very Deep Void

disclaimer: I have yet to think of a fitting name for the altar

OK first thing, the boss name.
It'll be called miasma. Why? uhhhhhhhhhh
ok so first, miasma means an unpleasant atmosphere.
second of all, it's a flat JoJo reference. Cool Ice, Miasma of the Void (hahahahha it's that arc guys...)

You get here by getting those void shard thingies that you use to buy voidstone weapons.
you get about 16 for this. It'll be in an obscure part of the depths of the 1,000 meter island.

Speaking of which, there should be a crane near the submarine in ahmsord that takes you directly down, unless there already is.

So you spawn in a dark hallway. The atmosphere would have to look empty, but heavy at the same time (I reckon your new pitch black block, coal, and black stained glass would work fine, as well as some particles. or just make plain void with barriers. (But this is the deep void, where light doesn't travel)
Anyways, you get a mycelium platform.

As you walk along, you get a few dialogue triggers.

[1/4] ????: You are making a grave mistake by entering my domain.
[2/4] ????: I'll assume that you want to throw your life away.
[3/4] ????: Very well then, if you so wish to fight, then it is a fight that you shall get!
[4/4] ????: Come forth to face the end of your worthless life!
You are then teleported into a black box.

[1/2] Miasma: You bear to witness Miasma. The very essence of this void alone, and the stopper to reckless adventurers like you!

You are then teleported to the boss arena, which is a big mycelium island with several hazards.
here's a poorly drawn diagram http://prntscr.com/jvdyxa
B: Boss spawnpoint
S: Your spawnpoint
X: summon platform
That one hole: a hole.
additional thing: There should be a lightsource above/behind your spawn, and behind your spawnpoint is a hopper. The hopper is used later in the battle

[2/2] Miasma: Behold!

In a cloud of smoke, 4 controlled minions will spawn.
A controlled warrior, archer, mage, and assassin. They are passive and invulnerable each with 10,000,000 health with a ton of regen. They just sit on their respective platforms.

[1/2] Miasma: This, is a glimpse of what I'll do to you. Now go ahead, I want to see if you live up to your legends.
[2/2] Miasma: Fight them if you can, or die trying!

At this point, the archer and warrior puppet will either instakill or despawn, but then reappear in a cloud of smoke. This time, vulnerable, but also hostile.

If you have an aoe/paralyze spell, this'll be great.
The archer's stats:
50,000 health.
Arrow projectile
Spell: arrow storm
Mob AI: Stay away from player
Speed: Fast
Damage: 600-800
Regen: 85
Elemental Damage: Earth/Air/Thunder
Elemental Defense: Earth/Air/Thunder
Elemental Weakness: Fire/Water

Controlled Warrior:
100,000 Health
Melee
Mob AI: Walk towards player
Speed: Regular
Damage: 400-500
Spell: Explosive Charge
Regen: 200
Elemental Damage: Earth/Air/Fire
Elemntal Defense: Earth/Air/Fire
Weak: Water

A strategy intended
you gotta drag the warrior and focus down the archer.

Unless there's a way for both death's to trigger the dialogue,
The archer/warrior will drop souls.
Once you feed those into the hopper under the light source, they say:
[1/4] Archer Soul: Thank you for freeing our souls, We will be cheering you on from the afterlife! You can do this!
[2/4] Warrior Soul: That's right. You beat us, you can beat that smelly Miasma!
(Miasma also means an unpleasant smell)

[3/4] Miasma: Damn you! You will pay for freeing those puppets!
[4/4] Miasma: Go! Protect your master!

At this point, the same thing happens with the mage and assassin.

Mage Stats:
85,000 health
Ender pearl projectile
Shot type: SHOTGUN HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Spell: Teleport blindness (no heal because that's nasty)
Mob AI: Stay away from player
Speed: Slow
Damage: 300-400
Regen: 130
Elemental Damage: Earth/Air/Water
Elemental Defense: Earth/Air/Water
Elemental Weakness: Thunder/Fire

Assassin Stats:
70,000 Health
Melee
Mob AI: Run towards player
Speed: very fast
Damage: 800-900
Spell: Vanish and multihit
Regen: 90
Elemental Damage: Earth/Air
Elemental Defense: Earth/Air
Elemental Weakness: Fire/Water/Thunder

Intended Strat: FOCUS DOWN THE ASSASSIN FIRST ITS DANGEROUS ADASDSADASD
the mage is slow

You do the same thing, get 2 souls, drop them in.

[1/4] Mage Soul: Thank you for freeing our souls. We're counting on you to defeat Miasma!
[2/4] Assassin Soul: You defeated all 4 of us, just with the armor on your back and the weapon you are holding. Now go beat Miasma!

[3/4] Miasma: YOU DAMNED PEST! I WILL DESTROY YOU FOR FREEING MY PUPPETS!
[4/4] Miasma: TRY TO REACH ME, AND DROWN IN THE SEA OF THOSE WHO HAVE FAILED BEFORE!

At this point, it's a 45 second survival phase of constant streams of void shades

Void Shade
20,000 Health
Damage: 50-200
AI: Move towards player
Speed Normal
no regen
Elem Damage: Earth/Air
Elem Def: none
weakness: none

After that, is when you finally face miasma.

[1/1] Miasma: Very well then, if it comes to this, I'll eradicate you myself!

Miasma has 2 phases. A ranged, a melee-rage phase
Miasma
500,000 health
Projectile: Eye of ender
Mob AI: Go towards player
Speed: Normal
Damage: 800-900
Spell: Vanish and Teleport
Regen: 200
Elemental Damage: Earth/Air/Fire/Water/Thunder
Elemental Defense: Earth/Air

Once you beat his ranged phase, he will go into a melee, or rage phase.

[1/1] Miasma: INSOLENTIA! I spent years working to take over! I will not let such a mindless mortal to get in my way!

Miasma
600,000 health
melee
Mob AI: Run towards player
Speed: Very Fast
Damage: 1500-2000
spell: charge explosive
Regen: 250
Elemental Damage: All
Elemental Defense: All but water
Weak: Water

After you beat him, dialogue will trigger:
[1/1] Miasma: Impossible! IMPOSSIBLE!
and then he dies lol
unless its not possible to trigger dialogue on death

I have yet to think of items
criticism appreciated

also disclaimer:
i forgot to add dialogue format, doing it right now don't bash me

 

Very nice, I really like this idea and I like the idea of having higher level boss battles! This reminds me of something from the 1000 meters under quest, it could possibly tie into that somehow.

 

I can really tell you put a lot of thought and work into this, so you got a +1 from me.

 

Am I the only one reminded of the Puppet Master boss from rotmg?

Just me?

Ok

 

The boss itself is fine it is just its lore and dialogue are extremely cliche and uninteresting. It might as well be saying, “I am the boss of this dungeon as if you couldn’t figure that out by my giant name tag above my head. Now you’re going to have to fight me because it’s a video game.”

I’m not expecting much from the dialogue, but I think it would be better to have something clever or unique about it or just no dialogue at all. After all, Miasma is just a monster with little importance to the overall lore; it wouldn’t make sense for him to talk and it doesn’t add that much either.

Besides that everything else is pretty good.

 

The first phase is the puppet master's encore basically
the second phase is void survival phase
the 3rd phase is me design

still tho bosses are way too linear nowadays

 

You seem to have made a grave mistake.

 

Were they ever not?

 

true
