What's New?

Here's a new update with quality life improvements, including a new structure where you can obtain the cursed torch and battle the boss in a specially designed arena for combat. I’ve also added a new mechanic to make defeating the boss easier in its second phase: destroy the eye that appears above it to prevent health regeneration and deal a significant amount of damage.

How to summon the king

You will need to find the cursed torch in the chests of an ancient city. Additionally, you must have defeated the Wither and obtained its Nether Star to light the torch with the appropriate crafting.

Cursed Land

When you place the torch and stand near it, it will start generating waves of 4 guard skeletons. Each time you defeat a guard near the torch, it will consume them and gain a charge. Every 4 skeletons the torch consumes, it will level up, emit a distinctive sound, and a flame will begin to spin around it.

When it reaches the maximum level, which is 5, the torch will disappear, and the summoning of the skeleton king will begin.

Abilities

Mini Skeleton Horde: Summons 6 mini skeletons that will attack anything in their path. Be cautious, as their hits will slow you down, and upon death, they release the potion on their backs, causing splash damage to any non-undead entity. The skeletons come equipped with a shield and helmet that will mitigate 100% of the damage they receive, but they will break after a while.

Lightning: Unleashes a series of lightning bolts on the nearest player or in a straight line if not found. You will see particles a second before a lightning bolt hits the ground, so stay alert.

Fire Prison: The ground will be ablaze around the nearest player, and the flames will follow this pattern "#". Before the fire spreads, you will hear a warning sound two seconds in advance.

Skeleton King Phase II - Wither

Once the Skeleton King receives lethal damage, he will begin to regenerate health while transforming his iconic sword into a crossbow. Once his transformation is complete, he will adopt a darker appearance, and bats will start to spawn around him, causing damage to any non skeleton entity. This is the moment to stay at a distance and attack. Periodically, an eye will appear above the Skeleton King, progressively healing him; if the player destroys this eye with any projectile, it will inflict a large amount of damage. His crossbow also fires a series of three arrows with Instant Damage II, so be cautious of these projectiles.

REWARD

Once you have defeated the Skeleton King, he will fall, and a final lightning bolt will strike him, disarming him and releasing the great skeleton sword. Just take it; you earned it!

Skeleton Sword

This sword deals 10 damage and has the ability to summon 4 skeletons that will ruthlessly attack your enemies. They do not carry the area damage potion, so they won't be a problem for you.
