  • Rules Solo, 20 minutes, 5 lives. One HP bar; at 50% damage pauses while he becomes Phase 2.
  • Weekly clear One per Maple ID (reset Wednesday 23:59 SGT), outside the weekly boss limit.
  • Chrono Gauge Max 1000; refills while Chrono Break is off, drops when you are hit.
  • Time Distortion When the side timer ends (about 20s, 33s with Chrono Break). Too fast to dodge without Chrono Break (Tab).
  • Chrono Step Space: a dodge like FA's parry, no damage reward. 3 charges, 5s recharge; hold down to dodge in place.
  • Fever Count Rises in Time Distortion, drops on hits; the end total cuts cooldowns.
  • No binds in Distortion Nor in groggy (Origin absolute binds excepted). Reaching 50% mid-Distortion ends it early.

Danger

  • Holographic Afterimage Phase 1's hardest: three sets of four strikes, then a late final strike.
  • Distortion lasers Cost the most Fever; on Hard one hit can rule out 10,000.
  • High Speed Slash Phase 2: about 126 slashes; Step refunds cap at five.
  • Edge laser walls Green walls guard both edges; do not camp corners.
  • Hard extras Swiftness teleports in and stuns 4s; map patterns drain Chrono Gauge.

Tips

  • Sound on Step to the rhythm of Holographic Afterimage.
  • Sweeping lasers Stand mid-map; Step toward the incoming laser.
  • Dragon Thunder Step in place on a warning, or Step into it as it fires.
  • Great Whirlwind Step near the blue safe zones for refunds on later hits.
  • Stand on him Avoids the Phase 2 Recall Strike hologram and sword waves.
  • Burst around groggy A 10,000 Fever run gives about 1.5x the bursts.

Notes

  • Season over Not in the boss catalog; the MapleSEA season ended on 30 Sep 2026. Kept in case Kai returns.

Recommended · Hard Solo from about 38k up to the low 40k range (with Sol Hecate).
