Sea of Indolence is the first Tier 2 Gate of Paradise Abyssal Dungeon in Lost Ark. On this page you will learn the boss fights mechanics and how to complete this dungeon. To enter the dungeon, you must gain 960 ilvl.
Introduction
This is one of the easiest Abyssal Dungeons. There are 8 participants divided into 2 teams of 4 players. Pay attention to where the game is directing you - the teams perform different tasks, which means their positions vary when moving to further areas. In addition, you are equipped with special suits. You won't be able to use your abilities - only those that are assigned to the suit. It is worth getting familiar with them before fighting the first boss.
Deep Sea Orboros
The first boss is Deep Sea Orboros. The fight shouldn't pose much of a challenge for you, especially since at this point the teams are merging, so there are eight of you fighting the boss. However, pay attention to a minor boss - the shark. It is recommended to with it first because eliminating it will allow the whole team to gain buffs. Also, the mini-boss is vulnerable to most debuffs, so using grenades will speed up its elimination. You can even stun it. Your strongest attacks are Burst Hellfire and Final Verdict, with cooldowns being pretty low.
Oxygen
After defeating the first boss, a new indicator appears above the players' heads pointing to their oxygen level. You need to regenerate it to avoid taking a lot of damage or even dying. You can use algae or air holes for regeneration (also marked on the mini-map). Note that consuming algae restores all your oxygen, but removes the plant from the area. The air holes regenerate slowly, but they never run out of air and can be used by several players at once. This mechanism will also work during the next boss fight. The attacks marked yellow will deplete not so much your health as your oxygen.
Indolesence Sentinel Akam
You fight the second boss, Indolesence Sentinel Akam, without the suits. The boss's attacks marked yellow cause a drastic loss of oxygen. You will find several points in the arena where you can regenerate.
Some special boss attacks can petrify your allies - these attacks are indicated by the blue color. Attack the petrified allies to free them before they take damage from the next special attack performed by the boss. Again, you fight the boss as a team of 8 people, which makes it much easier to win. However, the enemy has a lot of area attacks, so it's important to stay on the move while fighting them.
Additionally, the boss has a special area attack - Annihilation. After a few minutes of fighting, the boss will begin preparing an attack covering the whole arena with only one safe zone located closely to them. It is a good idea to let other players know where it is located. However, this is not a full wipe attack - there is a chance that the player will survive outside the safe zone, but they will take high damage and may also get petrified. The attacks will be repeated every 30 seconds or so.
