She lands in the centre of the arena facing the same quadrant she faced prior to flying up and deals typeless damage to any players within a 3x3 area. After a few seconds ice stalagmites appear, dividing the arena's quadrants. They deal moderate damage if they are stood on.
Make sure you are about 2 - 3 game tiles away from impact tile
| scope="col" style="text-align:center;"|Three blood reavers with 35,000,000 life points spawn in the quadrants that Nex is not facing and begin advancing towards her. If a reaver reaches Nex, she yells "Taste the true power of a blood sacrifice", and deals 50% of the total hp the reaver had upon reaching Nex.

| Pillar Phase
| scope="col" style="text-align:center;"|If Nex has not been phased 4-14 auto's after the Elemental Lockdown, she will yell "Let the shadow engulf you. Give in to it." She creates three red shadow orbs per player, placing them on the tiles that they are currently stood on. The orbs deal typeless damage every tick if the player is on top of one of them. Moving one space away from your location for each spawned orb is enough to avoid taking damage. These orbs remain on the floor for some time even after being initially evaded.

The amalgamations will need to be destroyed before their bar is filled. They have 100,000,000 hp.
 
| scope="col" style="text-align:center;"|If the amalgamation is destroyed before the bar is filled a weaker Praesul of the corresponding element is summoned shortly after the crystal is destroyed. This will set the Praesuls' hp at 250,000,000.

She targets two random players with one line coming from the north and another from the east. This is indicated with the message Nex begins to draw smoke from the north/east towards you!. Three auto-attacks after this attack is initiated, a wall of smoke will appear in the same direction as the previous lines.
| Standing on the smoke deals 25 hp per tick. Avoid standing still when receiving the "Feel the smoke all around you. LET IT CONSUME YOU" message.
| scope="col" style="text-align:center;"|Upon receiving this message, take note of which direction in the smoke has targeted you and run to an adjacent wall that is opposite the direction of the smoke. For example, if you are targeted by a smoke wall from the north, stand next to either the east or west walls of the arena; for smoke from the east, stand on the north or south walls. If the players stand directly next to the correct wall, the smoke will not appear at all. Players who are targeted by the smoke walls should indicate which direction it is coming from to allow other players to quickly change positions if they cannot move.

| scope="col" style="text-align:center;"|Nex announces this attack with the line "Even I can not control the element of smoke... Let us see if you can." This is followed by the following message in the chat interface: "Nex casts a thick black smoke towards the centre of the arena.." Nex sends a small black cloud in a random direction. Upon landing, a smoke ring spawns. When someone moves into the ring, an unstable crystal will appear in the middle, which can be clicked on.
 
If no one activates the crystal, everyone will be hit for damage split over the number of players in the arena. Grabbing the crystal will deal lesser damage split evenly to everyone that was in the smoke ring when it was grabbed.

If the player survives the initial burst, a follow-up message will appear stating The shield blocks most of the damage, but you feel the elements boiling up inside. Like the instant-kill attack, a second blue bar appears over them, filling over time. Once this bar fills and disappears a large elemental bomb will appear at the location the player was standing, dealing typeless damage every two ticks if its radius is entered.
