Abilities

Descend
Upon entering battle, the boss's spear will fly out of an open portal into the ground, dealing 20% ATK as Geo DMG.
Spear Slam
Levitates its spear above its head before crashing it on the player, dealing 60% ATK as Geo DMG.
Spear Thrust
Retreats backwards before readying its spear on its left arm and launching it at the player in a straight line, dealing 60% ATK as Geo DMG.
Double Lunge
Performs two lunging thrusts, dealing 41% ATK, 47% ATK as Geo DMG.
Double Slash
Swipes twice at the player, dealing 32% ATK, 34% ATK as Geo DMG.
Forced Teleport
If the player is far away from the Watcher, it will envelop the player in cubes and teleport them next to it.
Leaping Slam
If the player is far away from the Watcher, it may instead leap into the air and dive bomb the player's location in a moderate AoE, dealing 60% ATK as Geo DMG.
Supreme Overseer
Spins its spear around it, dealing 40% ATK as Geo DMG to characters that contact it before entering the Supreme Overseer state with a Fury bar.

In this state, the Watcher will monitor any Pyro/Hydro/Electro/Cryo hits taken. All four elements are monitored simultaneously, and the element with the most progress will be displayed on the Fury bar. After taking 3 hits from the same element, it will record this element and sweep the area in front of it, dealing 68% ATK as Elemental DMG of the recorded element. If no element was successfully recorded after 5 seconds have passed, the sweep will deal Geo DMG instead. Every second time this ability is used, the previously-recorded element will require 9 hits to record.
  • Stygian Onslaught Fearless/Dire: Elemental counts to record an element are increased to 5 and 15 respectively and All Elemental and Physical RES are increased by +70% during Supreme Overseer. The second time of Supreme Overseer is extended to 8 seconds.
Phenomena's Delirium
After completing two instances of Supreme Overseer, teleports to the center of the arena and summons two Elemental Stars based on the elements recorded during Supreme Overseer to prepare Phenomena's Delirium. If no element was recorded, a Geo-aligned Inert Elemental Star will appear instead. Elemental Stars will inherit 1/6 of the Watcher's Max HP. Normal Elemental Stars possess an immutable aura of its corresponding element and an immunity to that element, while Inert Elemental Stars have 70% increased All Elemental and Physical RES.

After a 20-second charging period, indicated by a Fury bar, it will unleash Phenomena's Delirium, transforming all remaining Elemental Stars into massive spears of the matching elements above the player that slam down in sequence, dealing 100% ATK as its corresponding Elemental DMG.

If an Elemental Star is destroyed by the player, the Watcher will take an instance of True DMG and an instance of True CRIT DMG, with each instance equal to 3%/9% of its Max HP for the first/second Star destroyed. This DMG matches the Star's element. The non-CRIT hit is 0U, while the CRIT hit applies the corresponding element and can trigger Elemental Reactions. When both Stars are destroyed, the charging process is interrupted, and the Watcher becomes stunned for 6 seconds.
  • Stygian Onslaught Fearless/Dire: If Elemental Stars have different elements, these will inherit 1/15 of the Watcher's Max HP instead while Inert Elemental Star have 140% increased All Elemental and Physical RES. The DMG of spears summoned by Elemental Stars is tripled, now dealing 300% ATK as corresponding Elemental DMG.

Tutorial

Watcher: Fallen Vigil
Tutorial Watcher Fallen Vigil
Once a Watcher dwelling in the heavens, it can monitor and counter elemental attacks. In combat, Watcher: Fallen Vigil will enter the Supreme Overseer state. While in this state, Watcher: Fallen Vigil will track the number of Pyro/Hydro/Electro/Cryo DMG instances it takes, respectively. When it has taken 3 instances of DMG from any of these elements, it will exit this state and record this element as a monitored target. If no element is monitored successfully, the record stays empty. For elements that are already being monitored, more instances of that elemental DMG must be dealt before it can be monitored again.

Tutorial Watcher Fallen Vigil
After completing 2 instances of elemental monitoring, the Watcher: Fallen Vigil will prepare to unleash Phenomena's Delirium, releasing the previously monitored elements and summoning two corresponding Active Elemental Stars. If the element record is empty, it will instead summon Inert Elemental Stars, which are difficult to destroy. Break all Elemental Stars to interrupt the preparation of Phenomena's Delirium.

A shadow construct born from the overflow of the mighty primordial being. Though enthroned in the pillar hall high in the heavens, it will in the end fall into the mortal world once it opens its eye...
To act in the interest of one's private desire rather than in obedience to the will of the one above is a sin no less grave than the destruction of the world itself.
Yet, if even the messenger tasked with delivering the edicts of the lord of all gods cannot discern the will of that capricious being, the difference between "reverently upholding the sacred law" and "wanton acts of blasphemy" then becomes as vaporous as ether itself.
The watcher does not know why the master left. Only the eternal punishment remains, in the in-between where everything is in stasis...

Watcher Fallen Vigil Event Menu

Descriptions

A shadow construct born from the overflow of the mighty primordial being, a Watcher who once dwelt in the highest heavens, yet was cast down into the mortal realm for daring to open its eye.
A Watcher was meant only to stand in silent vigil within the Pillar Hall of the World. Any inquiry that transgressed the ordained order was deemed an unforgivable sin, tantamount to seeking the world's annihilation.
As sovereign of the world's watchtower, it wielded the authority bestowed by its creator — the power to correct all matters of "innovation" and "evolution." After enduring countless aeons of nescience, it finally chose to open that eye, defying the will of its creator, beholding both the falsehoods and the truths of the world.
The Watcher does not know why its master departed. Only the eternal punishment remains, trapped within a stagnant interstice of time...

Lore

The Open-Eyed, also known as Nihilita or the Watcher of Nothingness, is a Watcher of the Temple of Space and was created by Asmoday for the purpose of maintaining the status-quo in the temple. He[1] was created alongside Melanta and they were named them after the two things Asmoday could least deal with: "nothingness" and "melancholy."[2]

Eventually, Asmoday disappeared from the Temple of Space. After her departure, Nihilita opened his eye[3] after countless aeons of nescience and beheld the truths of the world. In doing so, he defied Asmoday's will, left the temple, and abandoned his duties as a Watcher. Melanta, however, remained in the Cage of Suchness, steadfast in upholding his master’s rules and condemning Nihilita as a traitor.[1]

Seeking to free the Temple of Space from Melanta's tyranny, Nihilita would wait in a secluded spot in Windrest Peak looking for the right person to fulfill the task.
