Behavior

Xolotl is found in a large circular clearing similar to Tezcacoatl’s battle arena. Four [Lightning Totems](/wiki/lightning-totem) are found in the corners of the room. He is initially found dormant and flashing red. Shortly after being approached, he will taunt: **”You have made a grave mistake killing Mixcoatl. Now you shall be my next sacrifice!”** Xolotl then activates, shutting off the entrance to the arena and flooding the edges of the arena with Evil Rainwater, which is functionally the same as [Evil Water](/wiki/evil-water). While switching phases, Xolotl has short periods of invulnerability. ####Phase 1 Xolotl alternates between wandering in place and firing a 2-way rotating shotgun of yellow arrowheads, or chasing players while firing streams of white orbs that inflict Bleeding. Every time he switches attack patterns, he will go invulnerable for about 1 second. ####Phase 2 Taunt: **"Eltak Xifls’TOh Audraxas Qualtinero!”** Xolotl becomes invulnerable in the center of the room and introduces his signature attack - a red crosshair that tracks the player. Upon drawing near a player, the crosshair will stop moving, flash, and call down a bolt of lightning, dealing enormous damage to and Petrifying any players caught in the blast radius. Regardless of whether it hits or not, once the first lightning strike has struck he will taunt: **”Gwuh huh huh! Now you fear the power that you are up against!”** Then he will move to Phase 3. ####Phase 3 Taunts: **”You killed my acolytes, and I shall return the favor!” “You have slain a great beast, but you will fall before me!” “You destroyed the idol, now I will strike you down!” “I will avenge the Masked Party God!”** Xolotl wanders in place, firing 4-way shotguns of yellow arrowheads and aimed white orbs. Periodically, he will create a tracking crosshair that attempts to call down a lightning strike onto the player. ####Phase 4 Taunt: **Oryx does not take kindly to intruders in his castle. He has offered quite the bounty for your charred corpses!”** #####Phase 4A Xolotl chases players while firing nonstop shotguns of white orbs, along with lobbing orange bombs that Slow. Throughout the entirety of Phase 4, he will maintain a crosshair that circles the perimeter of his arena, chasing players if they draw too close. #####Phase 4B Xolotl moves into the center of the room and begins firing several dense rings of highly damaging spears while rapidly lobbing red bombs. After firing for a bit, he will start chasing players again for a bit, firing less frequent shotguns of white orbs, before repeating the phase. He is Armored while chasing, but Armor Broken while in the center. ####Phase 5 Taunt: **”Mixcoatl’s ritual awakens the great power of the totems!”** The Lightning Totems activate, firing aimed Paralyze bolts at nearby players while lobbing Silencing bombs. Xolotl will be chasing players with 4-way shotguns of arrowheads while spawning tracking crosshairs. After chasing for a bit, he will pause in place and Armor Break himself while firing several rings of spears. Then he will retreat back to the center of the room, pause for a bit while invulnerable, and repeat the process. ####Phase 6 Taunt: **”Static electricity permeates the air!”** The Totems stop their previous attacks and start firing radial bursts of Silencing waves. Xolotl himself will circle the arena, firing rings of his spears. Occasionally, he will switch between circling along the edges of the arena and circling near the center - he will be Armored while transitioning between the two patterns. Throughout the phase, he will maintain a crosshair that circles around him. If a player draws too close to it, it will attempt to track them down. ####Phase 7 Taunt: **”Your brittle armor cannot withstand the might of the storm!”** Xolotl moves into the center of the arena and begins firing shotguns of white orbs at the nearest player, which will rapidly increase in density frequency before abruptly returning to normal again. The Totems will regain their Paralyzing bolt attack, and will also start to spawn crosshairs of their own, which circle them and chase nearby players. During this phase, **all 4 Totems lose their invulnerability and can be killed**. Xolotl will be invulnerable until all of them are destroyed. ####Phase 8 Taunt: **”The roar of thunder shall be the last sound you ever hear!”** Xolotl remains invulnerable and unleashes an enormous maelstrom of yellow orbs, which form a rotating cyclone of sorts. During this time, he will fire shotguns of arrowheads along the cardinal/intermediate directions, aimed Bleeding orbs, and parametric orbiting white stars. He will also spawn crosshairs in groups of 4, which will travel a fixed distance along the cardinal/intermediate directions before detonating. If any player tries to leave his “storm” of bullets, he will call them out for their cowardice and rapidly target them with dangerous Sickening bombs. After surviving the storm for about 20 seconds, Xolotl will taunt **”Huff...huff…”** and stop firing for a moment. In this stage, he will start spawning tracking crosshairs, but will still be invulnerable. In order to finish him off, one must drag a crosshair onto him, tricking it into striking its creator with a lightning bolt to bypass his invincibility. If he is struck with a lightning bolt, he will exclaim in pain and explode into a ring of harmless, Petrifying shots, leaving your loot in tow. **If this is not done fast enough**, Xolotl will flash red, rise up again, and repeat the phase. Every time he repeats the phase, he will provide a taunt. Assisted by:

Tips and Strategies

A large and somewhat coordinated group that has a few priests can stand in the top left corner of the room, where shots are less likely to reach. Having enough priests healing, and having at least one Geb Tome or Tome of Purification will render Pet Stasis and Sick useless, and also outheal any damage the group takes. If you aren't confident in your group's capabilities, or you are doing the dungeon with a small group, you can circle the boss in the outer or inner triangles. This is a bit harder to do but is also safer than relying on other people to keep you alive.
