Heaven on High Floors 71-80 Guide

On floors 71-80, the Accursed Horde will take the form of a Platinum-haloed Sack, and Mimics can spawn from Gold Coffers. You can expect 4-10 kills to be required to proceed between floors, 4-6 Treasure Coffers per floor, 5-8 rooms per floor and 2-3 enemies per room outside of Treasure Rooms, which will have significantly more Coffers and enemies.

As the fifth floorset of the challenge floors, some enemies begin to combo with each other, making status effects such as Deep Freeze extremely dangerous. This is also the last floorset that Pomanders of Raising can drop on, so start to ration these and other pomanders as necessary. Finally, on attempted solo runs, do not attempt to locate or gather the Accursed Horde, as these are often placed near traps and a single misstep can easily end a run.

The eighth boss of Heaven on High, and the fifth of the challenge floorsets. Like the floorset, this boss has access to Deep Freeze and will one-shot any players frozen by it. As such, there is a high price for mistakes, especially solo.

1. Heavensward Howl
2. Eclipse Bite
3. Summon Ice
4. Summon Icicle
5. Lunar Cry
6. Eclipse Bite
7. Repeat from Heavensward Howl

The arena is a circle, with the boss starting at the far side. The boss will begin the encounter with Heavensward Howl, a telegraphed cone-shaped AoE that inflicts Deep Freeze on players hit. Get to the sides or behind to dodge this. Next, the boss will use Eclipse Bite, an gap-closing attack that only inflicts minor damage, but will instantly kill any player damaged by it if they are afflicited with Deep Freeze.

Shortly after this, the boss will summon several floating chunks of ice in random positions around the arena. Move away from these as soon as possible. As the same time as these appear, a telegraphed circle AoE will also appear at a random point on the arena. An icicle will appear here and, after a moment, cast a telegraphed line AoE through at least one piece of the ice around the arena.

When the ice is hit by this line AoE, it will explode in an untelegraphed point-blank AoE that will inflict Deep Freeze on any player hit by it. This AoE will also explode any other ice hit by it, leading to a chain reaction of multiple explosions until no ice is left or any ice remaining is disconnected from the main group. After this is done, the boss will cast Lunar Cry, a raidwide that will explode any remaining ice chunks. This will then be followed up with a second Eclipse Bite.

After this point, the boss will begin to loop mechanics.

On a DPS, you can expect a kill time of about eight minutes, or faster with the aid of a Pomander of Strength. On a tank or healer, you can expect a kill time of about ten minutes under the same conditions.
