Mobs

Glitter Guard: A larger and higher ranked Glitter Soldier. His skin is now red. Has the same combos as the older Glitter Spearman but after the two spear prods it usually does, it will spin and whack you with its spear as a finisher.
Glitter Dasher: A larger and higher ranked Glitter Soldier. His skin is now red. He has the same combos as the older Glitter Pounder but is now stronger and has less chance of falling down than its lower ranked counterparts.
Glitter Sniper: A larger and higher ranked Glitter Soldier. His skin is now red. He has the same moves as the older Glitter Archer except that he is stronger and slightly faster.
Glitter Protector: A larger and higher ranked Glitter Soldier. His skin is now red. He has the same moves as the older Glitter Defender, but is now stronger.
Thunder Fly: A stronger version of the Lanturn Fly, but can now stun you if it hits you.
Mana Eaters: Eats the mana of any players within range. Defeat it before it runs away to recover 100% mana.
Stone Gargoyle : Attacks with high frequency sound waves that can deal substantial damage.
Rage Stone Golem: A tall, heavy golem that utilizes slow moves like clapping at you with its huge palms and doing swan dives at you, which can cause flinching and flatten you. These golems can drop from the ceiling (Super Armoured) which can also flatten you if your mental capacity is that low for you to stand there. Super Armour is activated whenever it attacks. It's different from the Stone Golem as its moves are more like Teach the Tyrant.

Obstacles

Pitfalls: Yes, you fall and a chunk of health is taken away from you.
Medieval Flails: These things hang above pitfalls and sway around dangerously. The good thing about it is that it sometimes helps you injure some of the Stone Gargoyles.

Miniboss: Assaulter Crash

A heavily armoured Glitter Knight with a humongous hammer. You will fight him on Hard or Very Hard.

Moves

Dash: The Glitter dashes towards you and can continue to Leap Hammer or Hammer Swing. (SUPER ARMOURED)
Leap Hammer: The Glitter jumps and pounds down at you heavily with its hammer. He can continue combo-ing from here. (SUPER ARMORED)
Hammer Swing: Usually chained from Leap Hammer. He simply swings his hammer to sideways and knocks you far far away.

Boss: Cutty Sark

The giant blue Stone Gargoyle.

Moves

Meteor Breath: Spits several meteors at the battlefield. It can cause moderate damage if juggled.
Swoop: Flies back slightly then swoops down at the battlefield.
Draining Grab: Chained from Swoop, the Gargoyle picks you up with its legs and starts draining your health. This will do substantial combo damage. Mana breaking (Counter) can be used to avoid the damage, however Cutty Sark will not let go until he is finished.
Double Swoop: The Gargoyle flies up in the air and swoops down twice around the battlefield, causing moderate damage.
Scream: The Gargoyle can summon Stone Gargoyles by screaming.

Tactics

This is one of the most challenging maps ever. There are many ways of catching Cutty Sark:

Recommended Method

Just when Cutty Sark is about to swoop down (after he flies back a little), attack the levers on the ground to fire the huge harpoons installed in the battlefield to hit him. Hit him up to 4 times with the harpoons and Cutty Sark will fall to the battleground with lowered damage reduction and from there, you can skill/spam moves. Be careful as the harpoons launched can still damage you or your teammates.

  • Cutty Sark will take over 3 times more damage than if you attack it in the sky, but it will regain its damage reduction as it begins preparing to take flight again.
  • At the very start of the fight he will usually fly up and stop moving over the two center harpoons, at this point you can usually hit both the center harpoons and take him down right at the start before he can do anything.
    • You can tell when he's stopped moving by looking at his 'icon' indicating where he is off screen.

Second Method

Elsword's "Parry" Active Skill can open Cutty Sark to combos when he swoops into the battlefield.
Skills like Binding Circle and the Light Element Stoning can help give time for attacking.
For this boss, Overtaker's "Valkyrie's Javelin" is much stronger than its "Nuclear".

  • Note that a great disadvantage of this method is that Cutty Sark takes 30% damage when it is in flight or recovering.
    • Cutty Sark only takes full damage when freshly knocked down with a harpoon.
