Information about this guide
Overview
The Mid Boss (also known as Temple Guardian) is a crucial objective that drops the Rejuvenator buff. Understanding its mechanics, timing, and team coordination requirements can secure significant advantages.
Mid Boss Spawn & Location
The Mid Boss spawns at the 10-minute mark in the Museum (center of the map) on the bottom floor. A global roar and announcer will indicate its arrival. The location is marked on the map with a Rejuvenator icon.
Tips
- Position your team around the Museum before the 10-minute mark
- Use the top floor's square hole for quick access and vision
- Control the surrounding area before engaging
Warnings
- The boss will immediately aggro when players enter its pit
- Walking on the sides won't trigger the boss
Health & Combat Mechanics
The Mid Boss starts with 6,000 base health and gains 425 health per minute. It has a regenerating shield that must be depleted before dealing actual damage. At 60% HP, it emits another global roar alerting all players.
Tips
- Coordinate burst damage to break through the shield
- Track the boss's health scaling (14,500 HP at 30min, 23,000 HP at 50min)
- Be prepared for enemy contests when the 60% HP roar occurs
Warnings
- Don't engage without sufficient damage to break the shield
- The boss targets the closest player with its purple laser
- All players must leave the pit to reset the boss
Rejuvenator Buff & Control
Upon defeating the Mid Boss, a Rejuvenator crystal spawns and slowly descends. Teams must claim it by punching the crystal, and it can be stolen by the enemy team. The Mid Boss respawns 7 minutes after death, with respawn timer decreasing on subsequent kills (7/6/5 minutes).
Tips
- Position your team to secure the crystal immediately after boss death
- Track respawn timers as they decrease with each kill
- Use the buff timing for aggressive map control
Warnings
- Don't leave the Rejuvenator unclaimed - enemies can steal it
- Be aware that the respawn timer changes based on kill count
- Coordinate team positioning for both boss fight and buff secure
Strategic Considerations
Mid Boss control requires balancing team resources and map pressure. Recent patches have adjusted its mechanics to encourage strategic engagement.
Tips
- Use the Museum's top floor for vision control
- Coordinate with objectives and power-up timings
- Track enemy team positions and cooldowns before engaging
Warnings
- Don't commit too many resources if other objectives are threatened
- Be aware of the boss's increased strength in late game
- Consider the risk/reward of early boss attempts
Conclusion
Successful Mid Boss control combines understanding of its mechanics, proper team coordination, and strategic timing of engagements. The Rejuvenator buff can provide significant advantages when secured and utilized properly.
