Locating the Astraeos Miniboss

To find the Astraeos Miniboss, you need to travel to 1.4 latitude and 84.6 longitude. Upon arrival, look for a small altar featuring a purple sphere. This is the new terminal, known as the Miniboss Terminal, where you can initiate the miniboss encounter.

At the Miniboss Terminal, you will need specific items to spawn the miniboss. The required items are:

2 Corrupted Arts, 5 Fire Talons, 10 Therizino Claws, 25 Corrupted Nodules, and 5 Poison Talons. Once you have gathered all of these, you can use the terminal to summon the miniboss.

Loot and Rewards

Once the Astraeos Miniboss is defeated, the loot will be found inside its inventory. The rewards include a variety of items, such as a set of 50 Element and one blueprint.

Additional loot may consist of weapons and armor, with one miniboss dropping a weapon and the other dropping armor. In total, you can expect to receive approximately 60 Element for defeating both minibosses.

Spawn Timer and Difficulty

The Astraeos Miniboss can only be spawned once per hour. There is only one difficulty setting available for this encounter.

Compared to other bosses that require less time to respawn and offer greater rewards, the Astraeos Miniboss may not be the most efficient choice for farming Element or high-value loot.
