3. Mid to Late Phase (50%-0% Health): Managing Intense Damage Phases

As Xesht’s health drops below 50%, the encounter becomes significantly more intense. Minion waves, teleportation phases, and damage spikes will test your ability to maintain precise timing for your buffs and debuffs.



Buff Timing:

Herald of Ice/Fire:



When to Use: Reapply your Herald buffs before major damage bursts from Xesht. These will help you deal more damage during damage phases, particularly when Xesht is vulnerable to elemental damage.

Why It Works: Herald of Ice (Cold builds) and Herald of Fire (Fire builds) significantly increase your damage output and POE currency will help clear ads more quickly while simultaneously increasing your damage to Xesht.

Flask of Adrenaline:



When to Use: Activate when Xesht teleports or when you’re trying to avoid AoE effects. In the later phase, Xesht will start teleporting around and summoning more adds, and Adrenaline Flask can give you the speed to avoid these dangerous areas.

Why It Works: Flask of Adrenaline grants instant movement speed, allowing you to cheap POE 2 Currency reposition quickly to dodge fireballs, slam attacks, or avoid explosions from minions.
