As the fight progresses more dangerous dinotars such as Reaper and Giga variants join the fray which can deal immense damage. The maximum damage threshold you can do to the Master Controller is at most 1/4 of its health. It seems that there are hard damage thresholds that can't be exceeded so you are guaranteed to be doing this cycle multiple times. Be warned that this is only temporary, and the boss will render himself immune after a while, which requires the whole process be repeated. Send the data keys over to the codebreaker terminal to disable the shield protecting the Master Controller to harm him. Gather the data keys as normal by killing off Corrupted Avatars and Dinotars.

These drones will also drop Element for players using Tek weapons such as the Tek Rifle.Īt the final phase the Master Controller will initially be immune to damage and will fire beams that will stun creatures, dismount players, and can also stunlock players. Aerial attack drones are unexpectedly potent so make sure someone is clearing those with a sniper rifle, shotgun, or pistol. Some players should dedicate to killing off the corrupted avatars and dinotars and keep the runners protected.

You don't have to press E to pick up a data key simply running over it will automatically add it to your count. Try to have a few people dedicated to running the data keys to the codebreaker terminal since each player can only hold so many data keys. The faster you complete the task the less overall damage you'll take. Since the Master Controller is immune in all phases except the final phase, focus on crowd control and gather the data keys in order to progress. This fight takes place in multiple phases that grow in difficulty.

This will only happen if you have a dupe in cloud. to prevent this put all of your items in a surviving tame's inventory and they will not be lost. If you defeat him the surviving tames will be teleported from where you teleported to the arena, and all items in your inventory will be lost. Therefore, if the fight begins to seem unwinnable, it is a viable strategy to attempt to capture as many creatures as possible in Cryopods before your defeat, allowing you to preserve them to fight another day. Additionally, the bodies of any Survivors present in the System Root will be transported back to the area where The Arrival Protocol was initiated upon defeat, inventories intact. Creatures cannot be released from Cryopods within the System Root, but creatures can be captured. There is a restriction of 10 survivors and 20 tamed creatures allowed into the System Root, which is typical of guardian boss fights on all other maps, excluding Extinction. Unlike the other bosses, he stands impervious to any form of attack, until reaching the final phase of the boss fight. Master Controller is not a boss like any of the current bosses. As the phases become progressively more difficult as the fight progresses, by the final phase, Survivors will often find themselves struggling to finish off the boss before the timer hits 0.Ī boss fight might not be made particularly difficult by any one of these restrictions, but all of them together, combined with the overall difficulty of the boss fight itself, makes the Corrupted Master Controller a very difficult boss to defeat even on Gamma difficulty, with the higher difficulties posing a challenge that rivals or even arguably surpasses that of Extinction's King Titan. Finally, there is a 15 minute time limit for each of the four phases of the boss fight. Also like most bosses, the Corrupted Master Controller summons minions to defend himself, but unlike other bosses, there is no limit to the number of minions allowed in the System Root at any one time, which allows minions to spawn endlessly and potentially overwhelm survivors. Like many bosses, only certain creatures can be transported to the System Root, the Genesis Simulation's Boss Arena and the domain of the Corrupted Master Controller. The Corrupted Master Controller is not to be underestimated.
