Nexavyr, the Legendary
Earning the Legendary: access, the Keystone, the preparation, the fight, and what Nexavyr does once you own it.
Nexavyr is the only Legendary beast. You earn its egg by mastering every family, preparing a summon at your Keystone and winning a hard fight with up to three members of your island. The Legendary Event, /event, opens once you discover Canopy.
Legendary access
You need all five family masteries: Meadow, Ember, Tide, Highland and Canopy.
The Keystone
The Keystone is the altar you summon from. Take it from /legendary and place it on your island like a habitat. A summon uses it up. It comes back after a defeat; after a win you place a new one for the next summon.
Preparing a summon
Every summon needs a full preparation in /event:
- Choose three families you have mastered.
- Deposit 250 of each chosen family's material.
- After the deposits, finish two care or training rounds with beasts of each chosen family, six in all.
There is no waiting period between summons.
The summon
A summon is for 1 to 4 members of the same island, on the same server. Invite teammates with /trials invite <name>, then summon from /event beside your Keystone. Merge before the fight starts: only merged blows hurt Nexavyr.
The fight
| Value | |
|---|---|
| Health | 1,000 alone, then 1,600, 2,200 and 2,800 for a party of two, three or four |
| Time limit | 8 minutes |
| Slams, charges and lances | 8 damage, four hearts |
| Starfall | 7 damage at seven marked spots |
| Attacks | Every 3.5 seconds, faster at half health and again at a quarter |
- Between openings Nexavyr is Guarded and takes 35% damage. After its attacks it is Winded for a moment and takes 160%. Strike then.
- When it fires crystal lances, hide behind one of the three pillars. Each lance breaks the pillar it hits.
- A hit that would knock you out leaves you down on 1 heart. A teammate who sneaks beside you for 3 seconds revives you with 4 hearts.
- Your Combat perks for extra hearts and Second wind apply here too.
You lose if the time runs out or everyone is down. Losing or leaving keeps the whole preparation, deposits and rounds included, so you can try again straight away.
The first win
Your island's first win earns the Nexavyr egg, and the quest The Keystone pays 50 Islemarks and a Lineage Charm. If your egg storage is full, the egg waits until you free a slot.
Winning again
Each later win needs a new full preparation and pays 20 Keystone Fragments, plus a choice you make in /cosmetics:
- 20 more Keystone Fragments, 40 in all; or
- 2 Lineage Charms in exchange for the 20 fragments. Only the Owner or a Manager can choose this.
Owning Nexavyr
- The egg hatches in 1 hour. Your first Nexavyr hatch gives your island a third incubator.
- Nexavyr grows up in 48 hours, 12 as a newborn and 36 as an adolescent. Training doesn't speed it up.
- Legendaries live in their own storage of 3, in
/legendary, and one can be placed at a time, in any habitat's Legendary slot. - An adult Nexavyr in a Legendary slot makes every habitat on your island produce 5% more. Only a placed Nexavyr gives this, not one walking with you.
- It can't be bred, released, refined or traded.
- Merged, it carries all five family traits.
