Have you ever wanted to fight an ambulatory crystalline mountain? Want to? Now you can in the latest patch of Dauntless, which has the tentpole feature of a new light-based variant of the Boreus fight known as the Lightbound Boreus.
This new beast is pretty much as described – a crystal rock-covered version of the giant minion-summoning creature Slayers know and love. As the name suggests, this variant has a number of new light-based tricks up its sleeve, including shields, radiant-aspected minions, and a very big and flashy stomp attack.
Other features of the latest patch include a set of new cosmetics for those who have progressed to a certain point in the Slayer’s Path tree, two more legendary lantern amps for the Radiant Escalation mode, two new hunt passes, and a returning set of previous hunt pass cosmetics as part of the Dire Discovery season. There are also some balance tweaks, bug fixes, and QoL improvements outlined in the patch notes.
