Story Boss
Nimrod
Drops: Duhk Halic, Grinn, Odiac, Precklies, Rivt-II, Sollos-I, Unsula, Vasp-IV
Lightning-based story boss during Brewer of Hues (Fort Curlail finale). Uses shock attacks and self-healing. Repeat farms: Discharged Nimrod Agari (SE Midrath, ~30 min) for Twice Blessed Joineries — not this fable fight. Hark the Collector can spawn a separate event Nimrod.
How to Beat Nimrod
Phase overview
Lightning boss in Brewer of Hues. First two encounters he flees — save Cloudquell for the finale. Ranged or melee throw trades safely.
~2 phases
No Repeat Farm
Story-only lightning duel. Repeat Oryn-Umbr fragment farms: Discharged Nimrod (Agari, ~30 min) after the fable.
Tips
- First two encounters he flees — save burst cooldowns for the Fort Curlail finale
- Cloudquell clears the sky and blocks lightning — mandatory for the final fight
- Dodge fork melee after lightning volleys; Blitzel punishes from range between casts
- Interrupt self-heal channels — do not chase lightning trails across the arena
- Discharged Nimrod (Agari, SE Midrath, ~30 min) shares the kit — Twice Blessed Joineries only per Avakot
- Hark the Collector event Nimrod is separate — Thunderstone in the cage prevents his spawn
Recommended pacts
Recommended stats
Cloudquell + Sollos-I melee or Blitzel ranged; Bestone and Phantom Flock for burst.
