Where is the key usually lost?

  • ThrashersTheir stacked bleeds and poisons are the biggest threat.
  • The first bossThe whole group has to take part in the soaks.

Icy Veins’ difficulty notes (23 Aug), editorial — no measured key-loss rate exists here.

It went wrong — now what?

  1. Release and run back together.
  2. Re-read the danger — Light Bolt Volley: Kick every Radiant Spellsower cast.
  3. Pull again with cooldowns ready.

Next safe action: Assign the answer to Light Bolt Volley before the pull.

Sources and how this card is built

The stops follow the guide’s own sections — the trash before each boss, then the boss. Every note is our paraphrase; ability names are the game’s. The danger on each stop is the guide’s heaviest warning there. A route is a group’s choice, so the card has no pull numbers or enemy-force percentages.

Our own rows on this page were checked on Oct 7, 2026. Where the two differ, the newer date wins — a hotfix after the upload is the usual reason.

Each video is the channel’s own upload; a guide is filed under a boss or dungeon only when its own title names that one and no other. Nothing loads from YouTube until you press play, and nothing is re-hosted.
