The Hollow Watcher

Guardian

Fought on floor 96, in Act 6: The Abyss.

Quiénes Eran

Su ojo, el que usa para mirar hacia la Luz de Arriba sin abandonar sus propias profundidades. Ha visto llegar a cada uno de los cien campeones, y ha visto a cada uno de ellos dejar de llegar. No parpadea. Nunca lo ha necesitado.

Mythic, cursed, and divine relics sit above legendary, the fusion ceiling, and drop only from boss and guardian kills: mythic from floor 50, cursed from floor 80, and divine from floor 90, but only on Infernal. Here, mythic, cursed, and divine relics can all drop from its floor 96 kill.

How to Prepare

  • You fight The Hollow Watcher solo, and there is no rest heal before the encounter, so arrive with real HP in the bank and sustain already flowing: lifesteal earned in the fight itself, plus potions bought with gold beforehand.
  • An escort wave of the biome's regular enemies fights first. Only after they fall does The Hollow Watcher step out alone for the closing wave, so keep enough HP and cooldowns in reserve for the real fight.
  • If you wipe, you restart at floor 1, but your permanent upgrades and talents carry over, so a loss here is a setback, not a full reset. Optional Hardcore mode also destroys your equipped gear on a wipe.
