Red Clown is a mini-boss fought in Sanctuary of Dispersion.
Contents
History
Made from red sunlight, blue moonlight and silver starlight, Red Clown is one of Luke's most loyal servants since his creation on Heblon. He was tasked with gathering all of Luke's servants and both Heblon's heirs who were scattered across worlds after the kingdom's destruction. Due to Red Clown's unique nature, his entire body is a mass of energy that slowly leaks out. In order to prevent the energy leak, Luke crafted gold plating that covered his body, thus turning him into Gold Clown. But after fighting adventurers in Banquet Hall of Light while losing energy, he realizes that Luke's life is in danger. He ripped off the gold plating by himself, unleashed all of his contained energy and reverted back to his original form. The most loyal servant who's willing to sacrifice everything, even his own life just to save his creator.
Move Set
Red Clown is invulnerable and cannot be damaged by any means until his Clones mechanic is cleared.
- Clones: Red Clown will begin by summoning two clones of himself inside of two pentacles in the center of the room. He is invulnerable during this entire mechanic and in order to damage him, the clones must be held inside their respective pentacles for 5 whole seconds. Succeeding in the pattern will cause the clones to disappear and make him vulnerable to damage for a certain amount of time.
- Depending on the party size, one clone will only appear if it's 1 - 2 players, two clones for 3 - 4 players.
- There is also a time limit on this mechanic, failure to hold clones within 1 minute will cause Red Clown to inflict status effects and roams around attacking the party for awhile until he repeats the pattern again.
- Transformation: Red Clown transforms into Hammer Clown and attempts to disrupt players by knocking them away with a hammer, causing moderate damage and stun status.
- Box Drop: Red Clown will drop boxes in a cross-shaped pattern down on players that stuns them if the move connects.
- Fist Smash: Red Clown hits the floor with his fist, causes knock back if players are close enough to him.
Strategy
- Classes that have hold-based moves are able to keep clones intact in pentacles depending on how long the move lasts. Holy Spear: Brionac or Lion's Roar for example are often used once they appear around the 4 second mark.
- Burst him down quickly as possible since Red Clown sports high defenses and doesn't even attack during his vunerability state. A strong party can ideally 1-cycle him before he begins the clone mechanic again.
