2. Fight Al-Hezmin, the Hunter Strategy

Players must first spawn a Conqueror within the Atlas using the steps in the Atlas quick guide. Then talking to Kirac and Zana will open a portal to the Conqueror's citadel. Defeating the map boss will open a portal to the Conqueror's arena, where they must fight Al-Hezmin.

Al-Hezmin's arena is a triangular area with a triangular acid pool in the center. Depending on which phase he's on, it's better or worse to stay inside the triangle.

  1. Open a map that’s in in one of the corner regions of the Atlas (Haewark Hamlet, Lex Ejoris, New Vastir, Lira Arthain).
  2. The fourth time you do, Al-Hezmin will appear and taunt the player, adding his influence within the map region.
  3. Repeat this two more times.
  4. Talk to Kirac. He will show the location of the Citadel in the region.
  5. Ttalk to Zana to open six portals into Al-Hezmin’s Citadel.
  6. After defeating the map boss, go into the portal and defeat Al-Hezmin, the Hunter.
  7. Al-Hezmin is notable for dealing a high amount of Chaos damage, and is also the only Conqueror to deal this type of damage.
  8. Players must keep moving to avoid the projectile attacks of the Vipers and Wyverns spawned by Al-Hezmin, and attack him as and when he becomes vulnerable.
  9. Constant mobility during the fight is recommended, but avoid entering the acid pool as it can be deadly in some phases.

3. Al-Hezmin, the Hunter Drops

Items influenced by the Hunter have a green icon on its header  and have unique Hunter modifiers.

Non-influenced items can have the Hunter's influence added using a Hunter's Exalted Orb, which is a rare drop from Al-Hezmin.

5. Conquerors of the Atlas

When exploring a map, there is a chance that one of the Conquerors of the Atlas, Al-Hezmin, the Hunter, Veritania, the Redeemer, Drox, the Warlord, and Baran, the Crusader, appears and spreads influence over the Atlas region. Whenever a Conqueror appears in a map, they will occupy the Atlas region and add packs of special influenced monsters to the map whenever they appear. After their third appearance, you can speak to Officer Kirac to locate their Citadel, then talk to Zana to open a portal to their Citadel, a normal map within the Atlas region. Once you defeat the Citadel’s map boss, a portal leading to the Conqueror’s arena opens up, where you can fight the Conqueror themselves. Each Conqueror will drop a Watchstone on defeat, which you can slot in a Citadel to upgrade all maps within the region to higher tiers and possibly reveal new ones.

Influenced monsters and the Conquerors have a chance to drop Influenced items, special item bases which can roll mods unavailable to regular items.
