The Hollow King

Boss

Fought on floors 20 and 30, in Act 2: Lightless Caverns. Floor 30 is this act's climax fight.

Quiénes Eran

El primer rey del dominio profundo, coronado antes de que Vaelgor pusiera un pie ahí abajo, y vaciado por dentro en el instante en que ella reparó en su trono. Le dejó conservar la corona y se quedó con todo lo demás. Aún preside una corte en un salón que ha olvidado su propio nombre dos veces.

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. This fight sits below all three gates, so no apex relic drops here.

How to Prepare

• You fight The Hollow King 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 King step out alone for the closing wave, so keep enough HP and cooldowns in reserve for the real fight.
• It can apply Weakened to you, weakening your own output for its duration.
• 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.
