Act three

Boss[]
- Main article: The Queen
The boss of Act One is called The Queen, a huge maggot in a large room full of traps, switches, and various spawned creatures. She is difficult to take on alone, as she is extremely powerful and very deadly. She has three phases. In the first phase she generates maggots and will periodically emit two circles of poison globes. These can be avoided by stepping on one of the switches on either side of her. These raise pillars that can be hidden behind. In the second phase two rooms on either side will open containing approximately 20 bats each which will swarm the player if they approach. In the final phase, ticks will spawn on the tiles in the room and darts will rain down from the top of the map. In each phase the queen continues to generate maggots and emits her poison attack.

Damage Types
Items that increase base damage (physical or magical), attack power, or mentions that it is applied to primary attacks exclusively increase the strength of your primary attack.
Items that increase skill power, skill crit chance, skill crit multiplier increase the damage of EVERY OTHER damage source. This will even enhance the base damage of reflected damage or passives such as Paladin Juggernaut and Priest Celestial Orbs.
Armor penetration and magic penetration is specific to the damage type of your skill or primary attack. Note that hybrid damage does half physical and half magical damage so primaries and skills will only receive 50% effective benefit out of any penetration items/buffs.

Elevators
Using an elevator will allow you to send your money and ore back to town. Money is based on your current town hall level. The game will ask you for confirmation and show you how much you are actually sending back and at what tax rate.
If you activate the Miners’ Strike Fountain fortune then all of the elevators will already be sent down, effectively creating an «all or nothing» scenario, as you would need to beat Thundersnow to receive any gold or ore from the run. The only other way to get anything back to town without winning is to have an Imp appear and allow you to send your gold to town tax free. This should not be relied upon, but can be a nice bonus if it happens in the Battlements.

Enemy Changes

Boss, Nerys
Enemy type: Aberration
The final boss, Nerys, is a powerful djinn that took control of another djinn, Nimbus, long ago and was trapped at the top of the pyramid as punishment. He wields many powerful attacks and can quickly kill the player if they are not prepared for his attacks.
Nerys will always start out by attacking with his sword. When he attacks with it, fire waves will shoot out in the direction he swung. These do moderate damage, but are very fast and will boomerang back towards the player, all waves from the same swing converging at the same spot, and will leave a circle of fire on the ground. The player is lit on fire if they are hit by any part of this attack. The further into the fight the player is, the more fire waves will be summoned, with 7(?) being summoned once Nerys reaches 25% hp the first time.
Every so often Nerys will teleport to a different location in the arena, often close to an edge. This can be somewhat problematic for melee characters as the red mist around the arena will fire at the player if they get too close to the edge, applying armor and resistance break(magebane and shieldbreaker) to the player. Right after Nerys teleports, he will fire off black orbs in all directions that cause bleeding, darkness effect on NG+, and drain the player’s mana similar to the Arch Lich diamond from the if they player gets hit by them and when they land they will summon an X of fire that deals magic damage and lasts for about 10(?) seconds before disappearing.
It should be noted that Nerys moves similarly to a Lich in that he will continually back away from the player, so getting between him and the edge of the room is effective in keeping him closer to the middle.
When Nerys reaches 75%, 50%, and 25% HP he will heal up to 50% of his max life if the player is not able to deal enough damage to stop further healing. During his heal he will summon other djinn to fight the player, along with creating large purple orbs in a circular wave that deal very high damage to any players within them when they burst. This wave starts with one orb directly under him, and continues to radiate outwards before repeating. There IS enough space for a melee character to be directly next to Nerys after the first orb bursts without being hit by the second circle of orbs.
Rewards
Along with the regular gold and ore the player receives, when the player defeats Nerys, Nimbus is freed and is eternally indebted to you. To show his thanks, he now resides within the player’s potion and will come out for 30 seconds plus 2 for every PoP NG+ level the player has beaten on that character. Nimbus deals 60 magical damage +10 per NG+ beaten and attacks just like the Sphere Djinn. Additionally, Nimbus adds 25 HP and Mana per level to your potion.
Additionally the player will receive 10 for each NG level they beat the pyramid on.
While not directly from the PoP campaign, the player can also acquire statue blueprints if they are at the correct NG+ level for obtaining statue blueprints outlined at the top of the page or on the Statues page.

Armor and Resistance
The player will gather armor and resistance while playing through items, character upgrades, class titles, or from temporary effects. Having a strong defense is critical the survival of the player and the completion of a run. If the player is unable to deal with the damage they are taking, the will inevitably fall.
Armor reduces the physical damage taken, resistance reduces the magical.
To calculate how much damage your armor and resistance is protecting you from, see the section below.
When the player’s armor is negative(from NG+, drinks, or both), they will take increased damage from monsters. Unlike having a high positive defense, where new points do less and less for the player, increased negative defensive stats will always increase damage taken by 2% per negative amount.
