BOSS FIELD NOTES

The Pale Ferryman

The Hollow Sepulcher · Ranged encounter

Read the encounter

A relentless hooded burial guide. Quick spectral processions leave a green passage offset from your position; move into it immediately. Sidestep committed soul bolts between patterns and cross the fast soul thread. Below half health, a delayed toll punishes standing still. Recovery is brief: keep moving while attacking.

Keep moving during the warning, then use the recovery window to position your spinning yo-yo. Cast only when your weapon’s allowed state and spell cooldown permit it.

Bosses reposition between attacks and during attack warnings, and try to leave active spinning yo-yo circles, including extra Hat Trick yo-yos. Lead their movement with your throws, then aim at their marked ground hazards and use stagger windows to hold spin damage on them. Normal enemies still stop to attack. Walls, movement slows and overlapping circles can limit their escape.
