GO BACK TO PART 2 OF THE EASTER EGG GUIDE
Vercanna's home soil - I like what you've done with the place...very homely
Now we are in the end boss's domain, we need to focus here otherwise all our hard work up until this point, will be for diddly squat if we die here. When we spawn into the main boss fight area, you will notice that there are strange plants growing around the area which are black and have a purple glow about them.

What we are best doing at this stage, as it will help us later on in the boss fight, is to feed these plants small CRYSTAL SHARDS that you will be able to pick up if you shoot the larger RED CRYSTALS that are dotted around the area.
When you shoot some of the RED CRYSTALS, they will drop a CRYSTAL SHARD that you can pickup. You can then feed these CRYSTAL SHARDS to the plants by throwing them into their open petals.
Once you feed a plant, it will then close and you will see a small purple glow emanating from the top of the plant. When feed each plant, after about 30 seconds, it will spit out a charged crystal in the form of a CORRUPTED CRYSTAL SHARD.
It is easier to get as many of these CORRUPTED CRYSTAL SHARDS as you can in the first stage and use them to help defeat the boss in the second and third stages we will be moving to later on after we have inflicted a certain amount of damage on the boss. We can however get more in the second and third stages as needed however so don't worry about it if you forgot to feed the plants with the crystal shards at this point.
Stage 1 of the boss fight - Gotta start somewhere right?
The boss has the following attacks:
- A summon attack - makes loads of zombies appear around you including pest zombies and a variety of others
- Large electricity ball attack which moves slowly towards you and can be easily avoidable. Sometimes can hit you if aiming down sights and unaware the boss has actually fired it at you so pay close attentions to your surroundings at all times.
- Smaller electricity ball attack were these are more frequent and move a little bit faster than the larger ones, just keep an eye out and keep tracking what attack he is currently performing to be better prepared
All we have to do is find opportunities to damage him by shooting the glowing part of his FOREHEAD. Once you get his health down to about two thirds of the way, he will then disappear and give you a breather before you progress onto STAGE 2 of the boss fight.
You can then use the PACK A PUNCH MACHINE that will have been transported here along with a CRAFTING TABLE to make any upgrades or improvements to equipment you may find useful.
When shooting his forehead, it will take a large amount of damage but is not that difficult really if paying attention to what's going on around you with the zombies attacking you and the attacks Kortifex is dishing out at a particular point in time.
Stage 2 - How's your throwing arm?
In this stage of the boss fight, we charged in stage 1 the plants up by feeding them the CRYSTAL SHARDS and in return they very nicely returned us a CORRUPTED CRYSTAL SHARD which will now need to use.
When you spawn into stage 2 initially, you will see Kortifex has a YELLOW SHIELD around the parts that are highlighted as his weak points. In order to remove this shield, you will need to throw a CORRUPTED CRYSTAL SHARD at one of the FLOATING TRIANGULAR SHAPED ROCKS in the air.
Once you hit this triangular rock, it will initiate the damage phase for Kortifex and he will drop his head down to your level and the shield will be briefly removed, revealing a new weak spot, which will be his eyes. Do as much damage as you can every time the damage phase is initiated.
Also keep finding red crystal shards by shooting the larger red crystals and charging them in the plants to become corrupted crystal shards, as you will need more later on at some point in stage 3 or in stage 2 as well.
Eventually when enough damage has been done, you will be given another rest bite where you can load up and create some weapons at the crafting table or pack a punch machine before being teleported to stage 3 of the boss fight.
Stage 3 - Goodbye Kortifex....you are not invited to the Vanguard zombies reunion next year
In this last stage of the fight, it is the same as stage 2, only Kortifex can heal himself at times in this stage. He doesn't charge his health all the way up to the top each time he does this, maybe around 30 - 40% if he gets to heal all the way without you interrupting him.
When he is in the healing phase, he will turn green when he is healing and his health will go up. You need to interrupt this healing process by shooting him when he is green or initiating the damage stage by throwing the corrupted crystal shard at the triangular shaped rocks around him, then dealing out some serious damage to him.
The more times you initiate the damage phase on him, it means the less time he can actually initiate the healing mechanic.
When you hit his glowing weak spots again during each damage phase and his health goes down to zero, you will have successfully completed the Easter egg and you will be given random rewards dished out to you, some of which can include the WUNDERWAFFE DG-2 wonder weapon way hay!
