In Lost Ark, some empty arenas with greyed-out symbols host powerful Field Bosses or Raid World Bosses. These bosses spawn at specific times each day, separate from regular bosses that appear every 30 minutes. These bosses often require a minimum equipment level to damage them. Lower gear results in zero damage.
One example is Signatus, a Raid World Boss resembling a giant mechanical robot with diverse moves and multiple weapons, similar to the Gunslinger build in Lost Ark.
- Signatus is a Raid World Boss in the Scraplands region of Arthetine.
- The calendar or the field boss tab in Procyon’s Compass can track its spawn time.
- To defeat Signatus, players need a minimum item level of 380 and knowledge of its moves, including a 180-degree rotation attack, fire attacks, and a force field move.
- The boss has various phases, such as spreading oil and setting it on fire, and a missile barrage targeting player positions.
- Success in defeating Signatus relies on dodging attacks and exploiting openings.
- Rewards for defeating Signatus include Forbidden Magic Earrings with 253 primary stat and 139 Vitality, as well as Forbidden Elemental Earrings.
