This boss fight introduces the Imminent Wish and Blighted Eye mechanic, which will be seen throughout the rest of the dungeon. Imminent Wish allows players to stand in specific areas with corrupted [[Ether Totem|Ether Totems]] and cleanse them for 30 seconds. After some time, Rathil will activate the Imminent Wish buff and teleport Guardians into cages elevated above the arena.

Totems are cleansed when the taken [[blight]] in the middle disappears, revealing a light blue glow within. | ||
After totems are cleansed and Imminent Wish hits zero, Rathil's hex will backfire, giving Guardians a buff called Naeem's Wish Empowerment, which allows them to damage Rathil.

Around corners of each cell, a set of tally marks can be seen with a number of tallies as well as a direction they face.

Upon climbing through ancient ruins and frozen ice rooms, Guardians will find themselves on the side of the mountain, at risk of plummeting down. Guardians should trek with caution as they eventually reach a massive Blight with rocks flying around it. Here, Guardians should exercise extreme caution and take their time to not get hit.

While the totems are being cleansed, Guardians will be inflicted with the Hex of Vengeful Corruption. This debuff lasts for fifteen seconds, and anybody who has the buff when it ends will die. To be released of the Hex, Guardians will need to locate [[Corrupted Hex-Drinker|Corrupted Hex-Drinkers]] scattered across the map. These immune [[Wraith|Wraiths]] can be struck with a melee to transfer the Hex to them from Guardians. Guardians should be aware that Hex-Drinkers can melee them and transfer the Hex back to them, so they should advise caution when in close proximity to a Hex-Drinker. | While the totems are being cleansed, Guardians will be inflicted with the Hex of Vengeful Corruption.

Scattered throughout the dungeon are eleven Ahamkara Bones, that tell the story of [[Hefnd]] and [[Naeem]] through the perspective of [[The Crow]] and [[Petra Venj]].

Other bones can found in later clears of the dungeon after the first. Each bone is acquired through different levels of dispel, so each set of dispelled bones must be found before going back into the dungeon to collect the next tier of bones. The first and last bone do not require Dispel. | Scattered throughout the dungeon are eleven Ahamkara Bones, that tell the story of [[Hefnd]] and [[Naeem]] through the perspective of [[The Crow]] and [[Petra Venj]].
