Mechanics

Discord

Madness

Upon hit, the player's main hand weapon and up to 3 other pieces of equipped gear will be unequipped and placed in their inventory. • If the player's inventory is full, the Chaos Elemental will not use this attack • Click to view an example of Madness.

Tips and Tricks

⬥ The magic hit of Discord is the most accurate, making it best to either Protect from Magic protectfrommagic or Soul Split soulsplit throughout the fight.

⬥ Prioritize using powerful threshold abilities, only using basic abilities to build up to stronger ones, or when better options are on cooldown.

‎ ‎ ‎ ‎• For Ranged range examples of powerful abilities are Snap Shot snap and Rapid Fire rapid, with abilities like Dazing Shot dazing and Piercing Shot piercing being your weaker basics. Death's Swiftness deathsswift is a very powerful ability, but should only be used near the start of the fight, if you find yourself with too much adrenaline.

‎ ‎ ‎ ‎• For Necromancy necromancy build up to abilities like Volley of Souls volleyofsouls and Finger of Death fingerofdeath with your weaker abilities, Soul Sap soulsap and Touch of Death touchofdeath, using your Basic Attack necrobasic when all else is on cooldown.

⬥ If possible, keep your inventory full of items to avoid the Madness special attack, Chaos Elemental's drops can be used to fill any blank spaces.

⬥ An NPC named Edward, located outside the Dragonkin Laboratory, south-east of the level 50 Wilderness Obelisk, can be used as a bank to store any drops the player receives and resupply for longer trips.

⬥ Due to the Chaos Elemental being located in the Wilderness, all Wilderness based bonuses granted by the Infernal Puzzle Box infernalpuzzlebox work against this boss.
