Attack timeline
4 recorded actions for this boss, in data order. Values are stored base client parameters.
1 Projectile volley
In-game text“Jin'do the Hexxer hurls axes across the field!”
The boss throws a volley across the field; the game warns "the boss hurls axes across the field!". The data records 5-9 projectiles every 4.5-6 s.
- Interval
- 5 s
How to handle: Strafe between the gaps instead of backing away, and change direction only after a projectile passes. With a 4.5 s cycle there is no safe standing window.
2 Delayed blast
A marked blast that detonates after a 1-3.4 s warning, on a 6-16 s cycle where an interval is listed. The data does not record the blast radius, so the edge is not a safe place to stand.
- Interval
- 7 s
- Warning
- 2.6 s
How to handle: Leave the marked area as soon as the warning appears and keep walking until it detonates. Do not stop at the border: without a recorded radius, assume the whole mark is hot.
Inferred from game data — not yet verified in game3 Spawned objects
In-game text“Destroy them before they hatch!”
The boss spawns objects; the game says "Destroy them before they hatch!" and, once a ward is active, "the boss is healed by its wards! Destroy them!" or "the boss is shielded by its wards! Destroy them!".
- Interval
- 28 s
How to handle: Switch to the objects before the next set lands; at three at a time they accumulate faster than a single-target build can remove them. Do not ignore them to focus the boss.
4 Summon
Add waveIn-game text“Minions, to me!”
The boss calls in a wave of adds; the game announces it with "Minions, to me!" or "A pack hunts you!". The data records 4-14 adds on a 10-16 s cycle.
- Interval
- 12 s
How to handle: Clear the pack before the next summon lands; at 14 adds a single-target build falls behind. Keep moving so the new adds do not surround you while you finish the last wave.

Suggested build focus
Build tips recorded for this boss's attack types.
- A movement-speed item or dash makes the gap between volleys much safer.
- A movement ability is more reliable than last-second sidesteps, especially on the 1 s warnings. Inferred from game data — not yet verified in game
- Area damage or a cleave makes short work of a set; swap to them as soon as they spawn.
- Area damage pays for itself here: one clear per wave beats single-target cleanup.
