Last update: 22 February 2022
The following page of the guide to Lost Ark describes the World Boss, Rudric. You will learn where to find him in Rethramis and how to fight him.
Where to find Rudric?
Rudric is in Rethramis, specifically in the Rethramis Border area. Here, on the left side of the map, you will find the Graveyard. Go to its bottom area. Use the Triport in Regria Monastery to get to the boss - it's the shortest way. Rudric respawns every 30 minutes.
How to fight Rudric?
Rudric is level 17 and has about 20 million health points. This boss has two modes - mobile and almost fixed in place. He occassionally summons small groups of undead. He has 3 main attacks:
- Basic scythe attack - doesn't do much damage,
- Charged scythe attack - this one created a red area, visible in the screenshot above.
- A strong AoE attack - shown in the bottom picture - this one does a lot of damage and applies a Fear status that immobilizes you for 3 seconds.
The key to winning this boss fight is dodging(Spacebar), or using skills with a similar effect, especially against an AoE attack. This attack comes only in series - there's a brief pause after the first one, and then more attacks follow. Once the attack has ended, you can engage in close combat again. Try to take out the minor enemies during the AoE attack.
If you are fighting at medium or long distance, you can see that Rudric prefers to target one player specifically. If you see that he's chasing you, remember that he won't let go easily, and try to avoid him for the next few minutes.
