Performance times and places
Ashava only appears on Saturday and Sunday during the testing phases, so the 18 and 19 then 25 and 26 March. It seems 4 times a weekendHas scheme fixed. An in-game message should inform you a few minutes in advance when it’s about to appear. This will give you time to reach the place.
- THE Saturday, March 18 at 6:00 p.m. and 8:00 p.m (Paris time), then and the Sunday, March 19 at 6 a.m. and 8 a.m so early in the morning in France.
- THE Saturday, March 25 at 6 and 8 p.m. Then the Sunday March 26 at 7 a.m. and 9 a.magain in the morning.
Who says huge boss says huge area. So it’s no surprise that the boss spawn area is in the large open area southeast of the Broken Peaks.
Group and level required
This boss is level 25, it is highly recommended to be at least level 20 or even 25 to make the combat more accessible. Suffice to say, you’ll need to start playing late Friday afternoon, and much of the evening, or all of Saturday, if you want to meet Ashava from his first appearance.
Until 12 players can meet this boss at the same time, at least from the open world. This means you don’t have to worry even if you are a solo player and don’t have a party or friends. The game automatically spawns the players present together, even without being grouped. If all goes well, he should try to create as many instances as necessary with the boss and the players present. Of course you can also form a group of 2 to 4 to promote cooperation. There is also no need to get the boss first, no one is going to monopolize it. All players who attacked the boss also receive experience and personal loot.
How to beat Ashava?
At the moment, the information is limited, but the developers have provided some clues:
- Ashava is going to cover a lot of the area with poison, so you have to be careful where you step.
- This boss’s main attack involves his two giant teardrops. They probably cover a large area.
- There would be a way to weaken Ashavabut the method has yet to be discovered.
Awards
You don’t have to be the first to hit the boss to mark it and make it yours, no one can monopolize it. All participating players who attacked the boss receive experience and personal loot.
With the full game, this will likely include some special bonuses, achievements, and rewards. But there is nothing comparable in the beta. You don’t have to beat Ashava to unlock the special cosmetic rewards, you just need to reach level 20 with a character.
