Item Description

The Absence of Mercy and Empathy: Level 85
Lore: “You must rise from mere amusement to respected equal.”
Usage: Use five Reality Fragments in a personal Map Device to open portals to The Absence of Mercy and Empathy. This item can only be used once.

Mechanics

Key Changes in the Uber Maven Encounter:

Area Mod: Monsters take 70% less damage, extending the duration of the fight and demanding sustained, high DPS.

Enhanced Maven Abilities:

Cascade of Pain: Fires 2 additional projectiles, making it harder to avoid and more dangerous.
Sun Projectile: Fires 4 additional projectiles, significantly increasing the area of effect and potential damage.
Gravity Wells: These persist throughout the entire fight, constantly threatening the player’s movement and positioning.
Tri-Beam Claws: Now also apply the Maven’s Punishment debuff, which prevents recovery, adding a severe risk to the encounter.

Memory Game Phase:

During Memory Games, map bosses will spawn, except in the final phase, adding an extra layer of difficulty and requiring players to manage multiple threats simultaneously.
The Memory Game itself progresses faster, leaving less time for players to react and requiring precise execution.
