As players reach the [[Harbinger's Seclude]], they will be guided to the final stolen relic. By recovering it, players will need to prepare themselves for battle, as Xaras will immediately spawn alongside [[Taken Thrall]] reinforcements to stop them.
As players reach the [[Harbinger's Seclude]], they will be guided to the final [[Awoken]] relic that was stolen. By recovering the relic, players will need to prepare themselves for battle as Xaras will immediately spawn alongside [[Taken]] reinforcements to stop them from leaving with the Relic.


Xaras will continuously fire [[Void]] Eversion blasts, and is capable of moving around the arena through flight. It is also highly durable and will summon more reinforcements, now including [[Taken Phalanx]]es, as more of its health is depleted.

The Chimera will often attempt to shield itself with [[Blight]]s, which make it immune to all damage. Players need to shoot these black orbs to continue their offence. Occasionally Xaras will also send three seekers, capable of tracking their targets, similar to the Axion Darts of [[Taken Centurion]], but more powerful. These can be shot to prevent them from impacting the player. Heavy ranged weaponry is recommended to defeat Xaras once and for all.

Heavy weaponry is recommended to defeat Xaras once and for all.
