STRATEGY TO DEFEAT
So, this boss has passive damage by using Plague debuff. It is very important to use supports in your team. You can use your regular damage dealer, then AOE-one and your healer and support. It’s nice team. Your support need to clean Plague debuff, and if you have one, use team cleanser as right.
If you haven’t Light characters, just pick another elemental guys, because Light and Dark are in connection by their elementality by strong-weak parameter, if you pick some Fire or Water or whatever, it’s ok.
First thing first, you need to clean minions wave. There are four Hulens and they don’t really hurt you, if your team is upgrated. After that go to the boss stage and do your best, control debuff activity and make damage.
HEROES TO PICK
Now, the elementality of your opponents here in this dungeon will be Dark. If we will think about elemental synergy, it will be useful to pick some Light characters. Dark element is weak for Light and you will bring more damage to the enemies (plus 50 percent). The bonus thing is a chance of 50% to avoid half of damage rate. So just use this advantage. This time just pay your attention to hero skills and level.
