Type of monster: Chaos monster (best possible bonus damage is 138% extra with Infernal Flame Pyromancer or Archfiend Doomlord and Empowered Blade of Chaos)

Ideal Classes Lineup: Tank with taunt (Naval Commander / Naval Commander / Naval Commander ideally, can also be accomplished with Death Knight Lord) to switch to Void Highlord / Void Highlord at 3 million HP, Lord of Order, ArchPaladin / ArchPaladin, and Stonecrusher / Stonecrusher or Infinity Titan

Ideal Level: 95+ (preferably all or most level 100)

Ideal Gear*: Infernal Flame Pyromancer or Archfiend Doomlord and minimum Chaorrupter Unlocked / Chaorrupter Unlocked

Consumables Absolutely Required: Sage Tonic (Stonecrusher / Infinity Titan and ArchPaladin), Fate Tonic (Lord of Order), Mastery Tonic (Naval Commander), Might Tonic (Void Highlord), Malevolence Elixir (Stonecrusher / Infinity Titan, Archpaladin, and Lord of Order), Battle Elixir (Naval Commander and Void Highlord), Potent Honor Potions or Dark Potions

Strategy Summarized: This must be done in a private room due to the Void Highlord switch. This ultra boss fight is without a shadow of a doubt the most challenging fight in the entire game!  Everyone must have their shit together or the group will indubitably fail, so arrive fully prepared!  It seems simple at first, although as time progresses, it gets more and more complex. Phase 1 (20 million – 10 million): The easy phase, gets boring, pretty much tank and spank, you may get complacent, DON’T! Phase 2 (10 million – 2 million): Tank really should die every approximately 2 million (8, 6, and 4 million HP) and Archpaladin keep group alive so group can damage boss otherwise boss becomes more resilient and gains more damage resistance, tank switches to VHL at 3 million (and equip tonic, elixir, and potions), and do it FAST. This is also the phase he deals the most damage. Phase 3 (2 million – victory): HE  ABSOLUTELY HAS TO BE KILLED IN 15 SECONDS OR LESS (used to be 30, although Artix Entertainment buffed it, making Potent Honor Potions / Dark Potions and the VHL switch all the more crucial) OTHERWISE HE WILL ENRAGE AND THE ENTIRE GROUP WILL WIPE! Pop potent honor potions or dark potions if you haven’t already!  One person failing to pop a potion could (and most likely will) mean a wipe and having to re-do the fight!

 

* The combination of Infernal Flame Pyromancer or Archfiend Doomlord plus minimum Chaorrupter Unlocked (preferably Empowered Blade of Chaos) is to deal maximum damage to Champion Drakath, especially for Phase 3.  Compare the following:

Infernal Flame Pyromancer or Archfiend Doomlord plus Empowered Blade of Chaos: 138% extra damage

Infernal Flame Pyromancer or Archfiend Doomlord plus Chaorrupter Unlocked:  102% extra damage

Necrotic Sword of Doom alone:  51% extra damage

Chaorrupter Unlocked or Exalted Apotheosis alone:  50% extra damage

 

Empowered Blade of Chaos is crafted by merging Blade of Chaos (.2%, or 1 in 500, drop from Champion of Chaos) with 5 Champion Drakath Insignias
