As of May 28, players can face the new Raid Boss 2 encounter featuring Subjugator and Thol the Invincible in the free Version 1.7 update. Here’s what you need to know for this challenging dual boss battle.
Subjugator and Thol the Invincible are on an enigmatic island in the Fadefields, awaiting a worthy opponent.
The encounter begins with a joint assault from the airborne Subjugator and Thol. They will alternate attacks, ultimately combining forces for a menacing dual strike.
However, eliminating one does not end the battle; the remaining boss will gain new powers, retreating to their territory fully reinvigorated for a fierce showdown.
