Amius the Lunar Archon is one of the hardest encounters in the game currently as of this writing. As such he requires some very specific tactics to beat. Coldheart here has the secrets to beating Amius locked within her ability kit. Two things stick out in this fight. The Heal Reduction from the A1 to keep the boss from healing and the Heartseeker A3 ability for a little bit of extra damage every now and again.
In this build I wanted to focus specifically on HP, speed, a little bit of defense, a LOT of accuracy and if you can spare it, some resistance. You can get away with little defense for this build since the boss ignores defense on his A1 ability in his second form. You will need about 400 accuracy if you have an accuracy lead like Mithrala but you will have to make them fast enough or more if you run a speed lead.
Strategy Description
Artifacts Description
I believe you can really get away with just about any type of artifact sets as long as you're hitting the stat thresholds for the boss fight. If you can preferably do it, I like the Toxic set because poison is the primary form of damage in this fight, outside of Brimstone and a few Heartseekers so any extra poisons can help. Literally every little bit helps. Timing is also very important in this fight so one or two few poisons or even too many can over or under do it for you.
Revenge accessories are the obvious choice as well since you want to land Heal Reduction A1's as many times as possible in this fight. Although stun/sleep mechanics will stop it from activating from time to time.
* Some artifact sets have upgraded versions available. If you have a better upgraded version of this recommended artifact set, definitely use that instead.
Unlike every other Coldheart build in this game that I have used, I skipped the Offense tree this time. No warmaster, no helmsmasher. We're good on that. We want full defense and support tree this time. All the extra accuracy you can get helps. As well as all the extra ways of mitigating damage from the boss and healing.
Phantom Touch
Phantom Touch
Level 1 Blessing
In this type of fight, all the extra damage you can get, is really helpful. I like the Phantom Touch blessing for that little bit of extra damage.
Level 6 Blessing
Same here as the previous blessing. Phantom Touch will give you a bit of extra dps, which is welcome.
