How to Beat Lequirus
Lequirus Overview
- Type: Wildkin
- Passive Ability: Innate Defense (All Defense ▲)
Lequirus is the final boss of the Cave of Destruction, and defeating him requires an understanding of his attack patterns and the mechanics he introduces during the fight.
Lequirus Mechanics
Avoiding the AoE Attack
Lequirus will unleash area-of-effect (AoE) attacks that can be deadly if not avoided. To dodge them, keep an eye on the visual and text signals that appear above his head. When this happens, move to the marked area where a pillar will spawn. Standing on the pillar will launch you upward when Lequirus executes his attack, allowing you to avoid damage.
Defeating the Colored Paralyzing Ant
During the fight, Lequirus will spawn two ants, one red and one blue. A colored marked area will also appear on the ground. To gain an attack buff and access the marked area, kill the ant that matches the color of the marked zone.
Defeating the Gem Ant
After performing his AoE attack, Lequirus will summon a Gem Ant. If you were launched into the air by the pillar, you can glide to one of the platforms where the Gem Ant spawns. Lequirus will continuously fire ranged attacks at the party until the Gem Ant is defeated.
Lequirus Attack Patterns
Fury Attack
Lequirus will perform a heavy-hitting Fury Attack after a brief wind-up. Tanks should be prepared to block this attack to mitigate its damage.
Red AoE Slam
This attack occurs when Lequirus’ aggro is focused on a player outside its melee range. Make sure the tank stays close to draw aggro and minimize the use of this attack.
Larva Spit
When Lequirus’ HP drops below 50%, he will spit larvae onto the entire party. To manage this mechanic, players should stand next to each other to merge their larvae, then spread out to others. Grouping together can simplify dealing with the larvae. Failure to manage them will result in an explosion that knocks affected players into the air and deals significant damage.

Clear the Rooms
Fight your way through multiple rooms filled with mobs. Watch out for the exploding ants, as they deal AoE damage upon death. Try not to kill them near your teammates.
Defeat the Giant Mutant Acid Ant
After destroying the Giant Acid Ant egg, the Giant Mutant Acid Ant will spawn. Avoid the green acid it releases by moving out of the way. Be cautious of its Fury Attack, which pulls players toward it. Block to avoid being pulled in.
