Raid

Deepest Guk raid: Executioner Gimdk / First Witness

Protect both scouts, destroy the three foci, and defeat Gimdk and the First Witness.

The encounter

Tell Scout Mainil you are ready. Split the raid to escort him while protecting Scout Granos at the entrance, then follow their routes deeper into the prison.

One force must stop the Executioner's Risen from becoming souls for the cauldron while the other destroys the Energy, Matter and Spirit foci. Destroying all three foci removes the protection from both the Executioner and the First Witness.

Encounter progression

  1. Tell Mainil ready

    Protect the scouts

    Keep both scouts alive as they separate. Mainil's route directs one force to the Executioner; Granos leads the other toward the foci.

  2. Both routes reach their objectives

    Souls and foci

    Kill Risen before their 30-second transformation and stop souls reaching the cauldron, which otherwise creates reinforcements near the First Witness. Destroy all three foci.

  3. All foci destroyed

    Finish both bosses

    Kill Gimdk before the First Witness if pursuing the additional Executioner chest. Both scouts must still be alive when the reward checks occur.

Abilities & mechanics

Focus spells Each focus casts its own spells during combat.

Energy uses Blurring Focus and Life Vortex; Matter uses Everlasting Essence and Swirling Matter; Spirit uses Infinite Mass. Their actual effects depend on the loaded spell data.

Field notes

Completion checks

With both scouts alive, the First Witness death creates the foci and witness chests. The extra Gimdk chest additionally requires the Executioner death flag to have been earned first. Completion adds a four-and-a-half-day replay lockout to the expedition.
