Behavior

####Pre-Combat After all [Cyclops Gods](/wiki/cyclops-god) in a Realm have been slain, [five towers](/wiki/crystal-tower) will spawn in random locations around the Mountains and Highlands. Each of them will be marked on the minimap by a colored dot matching the tower's color. The towers are defended by enemies from the [Crystal Cavern](/wiki/crystal-cavern). Once all five of them have been defeated, The Keyper will spawn with a patch of dark ground in the Mountains, signified by a global message. **"Hands off those crystals! I need them to scrounge up more keys!"** The Keyper has a red quest dot on the minimap, but will not override any existing quest markers. The player will still get a quest arrow if he is the highest level and closest quest to them, though. After all [Ent Ancients](/wiki/ent-ancient) in a Realm have been killed, the towers will reactivate and respawn their minions. Once all of them are destroyed, The Keyper will spawn one last time. *Message when Towers respawn:* **"Ah, there we go! Let's see those lowlifes try to take down my crystals this time!"** *Message when Towers defeated again:* **"Wha- Again? REALLY?!"** When approached, he will flash red and wander in place. Afterwards, he will begin his attack. ####In Battle #####Phase 1 Taunt: **"Quit messing with my operation!"** The Keyper aggressively chases the nearest player, firing shotguns of highly damaging sound waves that inflict Quiet. #####Phase 2 Taunt: **"Get your own portals, freeloaders!"** The Keyper becomes stationary and creates a large patch of darkened ground around him. He will then start firing an omnidirectional barrage of boomeranging key bullets that pierce armor. There is a rotating gap in his barrage for players to dodge in, but he will be firing spreads of Confusing purple shurikens at the opening. #####Phase 3 Taunt: **"Ack, get away from me!"** The Keyper begins quickly fleeing from nearby players, while constantly throwing Confusing AoE bombs. #####Death **"Fine, FINE! Have your precious dungeons! But you will rue this day!"** The Keyper spawns a patch of darkened ground around him to eliminate any impassable terrain, before spawning eight portals in a ring around him. He then perishes, leaving any potential loot in tow. The eight portals are selected at random from a pool of dungeons, which is not set in stone and will constantly update. The currently dungeons in the pool are as follows:

The Shatters

Secluded Thicket

Lair of Draconis

The Nest

Lost Halls

Drops

Tips and Strategies

The Keyper is extremely fast. Classes with high SPD are recommended to keep up with him, or classes that can impair his movement through Slows. However, since he is liable to run through the Mountains, beware of God swarms that can severely harm you when chasing the boss. The Keyper is not normally immune to Stun, so Knights can disable his attacks and let classes do damage unimpeded. Back to top
