Diablo Immortal: Skarn Helliquary Location & Boss Fight

One of the main antagonists that you will face in Diablo Immortal is a menacing demon called Skarn. With no regard for humanity, he wishes torture on every living being. Being the endgame boss, you will face him after you have finished the main story campaign.

Even the most seasoned players are tested by this boss. Skarn is said to be one of the lieutenants of Diablo. He is also the ruler of the Realm of Damnation. He is searching for a shard of the Worldstone, which can remove the angelic side of humanity. One thing I would advise is to ensure you have enough Potency in Diablo Immortal before you go into the fight.

Doing so, only the demonic counterparts would be left in the world, which for Skarn, is the perfect world of his dreams. He first appears in the opening village, and then you face him later on in the campaign as he tries to get hold of that shard. The difficulty level of the boss can be compared to Ancient Nightmare in Diablo Immortal, which you will face early on in the game.

Skarn Location

You will find Skarn after you have completed the main campaign quest in the Ream Of Damnation. The realm of Damnation comes right after the region of Frozen Tundra. The realm of Damnation consists of several districts as well as a dungeon, so locating Skarn can be quite hard.

There are Demon Gates in the area from where the demons from other kingdoms of the Underworld can join Skarn in his quest. Make sure you have the best solo class in Diablo Immortal because fighting with Skarn is not going to be easy.

Skarn Helliquary Raid Boss Battle

Much like the Vitaath Boss in Diablo Immortal, the Skarn Helliquary boss fight can be divided into two phases. Skarn would be much harder to defeat, and if not equipped properly, you can die in the first phase of the fight with him. Both of the phases require different strategies, and we have explained them in detail below.

First Phase

The first phase of the fight will last till about 33% of his health is left. While Skarn will have fairly weak attacks in this phase, if you aren’t skilled enough, you won’t be able to last long enough. The attacks can be dodged easily by moving in a lateral direction.

Ensure you attack him while dodging so you won’t be dependent on direct attacks to get you through because, in all fairness, they won’t. 

Laser Beam Attack

The only attack you should be worried about is the laser attack of Skarn. The highly damaging attack can take much of your HP and even be fatal. Try to dodge the attack by moving in the lateral direction. If you fail, the laser beam will melt you, and you’ll have to fight the boss again. Get some Essence in Diablo Immortal to get you through this phase.

Make sure you have a stable internet connection while fighting Skarn because in case of high ping, even if you dodge the attack at the right time, you will still get damage from 2 or 3 ticks of the laser beam. 

Ai Controlled Immortals 

In the first phase of the fight, Skarn will summon some Immortals that you have envisioned to come and defeat you. These immortals are AI-controlled. They can belong to any of the classes in Diablo Immortal. 

You should look out for Monks because they are the ones that will cause a lot of with their powerful strikes and can take you out before Skarn does, at least they did when I fought the boss. Target them with quick AoE attacks as fast as you can so you won’t take much damage from your battle with them and save some of your health for fighting Skarn. 

Skarn will also spawn little worms, and they will attack you from a distance. They are not that big of a threat, and you can dodge them easily. Finish them off with powerful AoE attacks and shift your focus to Skarn.

Second phase

• Begins when Skarn’s health reaches 33%.
• Skarn creates four mirror images of himself, and you have 8 seconds to identify the real Skarn.
• The real Skarn has a red circle beneath him; this is the identification marker.
• After identifying the real Skarn, he returns to solo form and continues attacking.
• Ensure a good combat rating to face the boss effectively.
• You’ll need to fight Skarn three times to defeat him.

But the is a way through which you can identify who is the real Skarn. If you look closely, you will notice that one of the four clones has a red circle beneath them. I found out that this is the identification of the real Skarn. If you feel the battle is too overwhelming at any point, I recommend changing the difficulty setting in Diablo Immortal.

Aftermath 

• After defeating Skarn, you’ll need to reach level 60 and unlock Paragon and Hell’s difficulties.
• To level up, visit dungeons like the one where you fought Skarn, which grants battle pass XP points.
• Completing contracts, bounties, and postgame raids also helps gain XP points.
• Dungeons at level 58 or above may yield set items.
• Aim to accumulate XP points through various in-game activities to reach level 60.

Spamming these dungeons will help you level up just in time. It will give you 15 battle pass XP points. You will also get the same amount of XP points as an Elder Rift.

Dungeons can also provide set items if you are on level 58 or above. Try to get as many XP points as you can by finishing contracts, bounties, and other activities like postgame raids.

After this, you will shift to the Paragon level system, and your Combat Rating will increase significantly as well.
