Christmas Abomination Raid Boss

Christmas Abomination

A Christmas raid boss built for groups: three phases, two mini-bosses, a mansion arena that collapses mid-fight, cinematic cameras and a finale with a surprise guest. Made for MythicMobs and ModelEngine, and it scales from 1 to 15 players.

Launch price: $49.99 until December 31, then $99.99.

What is included

• 3 boss phases with 70+ attacks, plus a cinematic finale

• 2 mini-bosses and 8 kinds of minions

• 81 models and 468 animations

• About 25,000 lines of MythicMobs configuration: 117 mobs and 1,150+ skills

• Cinematic cameras for the intro, the kidnappings, every phase change and the ending

• A playable Candy Sword with guard, perfect parry, posture and dash, plus throwable candy canes and bombs

• A Christmas armor set with the same stats as netherite: a helmet, plus a 3D chestplate, leggings and boots made with MythicArmors

• The mansion arena (83 x 83 schematic) that builds itself with one command and falls apart during the fight

• Animated boss bars for every phase

• Resource pack with custom sounds, boss bars, quiz screens and items

• 3 difficulties and automatic scaling from 1 to 15 players

• Ready to use: spawn the arena and the whole event runs on its own

Phase 1: Rodolphus the Sweet Crusader

• A candy knight with sword combos, grabs, jump attacks, a roll, and a sword he throws at you

• Rows of candy spikes burst from the ground, a charged strike fires three rows at once, and candy canes rain down

• His sacks kidnap players. Inside, you take an exam on in-game dialog screens, with over 100 absurd questions, and every right answer damages the sack

• Destroy a sack to free the friends inside

• Candy swordsmen join the fight and leave healing orbs behind

• When he falls, the mansion comes down

Phase 2: The Reindeer

• A cauldron explodes and Rodolphus returns riding a candy reindeer

• Lance charges, headbutts, stomps, pounces, a stampede, a rain of spears and bouncing canes

• A long-armed sack that vacuums players in, while candy jockeys, gingerbread cookies, nutcrackers, dark elves and clockwork bombs join the fight

Phase 3: The Christmas Abomination

• A giant sack throws a present into the arena, something knocks from inside, and a ten-block abomination climbs out

• Slams, claps, spins, a candy laser, roots that trap you, falling trees and electrified Christmas lights

• A huge candy cane lifts players high into the air and drops them

• Break his forearms: each one bursts into candy, and he fights on with the candy swords hidden inside

• A sword frenzy fills the arena with giant blades, spike rows and swords falling from the sky

• The sack eats two players at a time and spits them out wrapped in presents with their names, and the rest of the group has to break them open

• He knocks on the present's door and the mini-bosses come out: Shoginger the gingerbread man and Uncle Shawn the nutcracker, who throws his hat

• A giant clockwork bomb runs at the group and explodes

• Stay too far away and he reads your name off his naughty list: you get gift-wrapped, and he crushes the present from afar unless your friends break it open in time

• Fallen players rise again as candy statues with their own name and turn on their friends

The finale

• A long death sequence and a cinematic ending with a surprise guest, who leaves presents for every player

• The presents use a regular MythicMobs drop table, ready for your own rewards

The Candy Sword

• Hold right-click to guard, and guard at the last moment for a perfect parry

• Every block fills your posture bar, and blocking Rodolphus's melee hits without perfect timing breaks it

• Crouch to dash

• Throwable candy canes and bombs drop during the fight

Built for groups

• Scales from 1 to 15 players: Rodolphus takes less damage the more players are fighting

• 3 difficulties: normal, easy (players take about 20% less damage) and super easy (about 40% less)

• Each attack hits each player only once, so big groups are not punished by overlapping hitboxes

• The arena installs itself, moves nearby players inside, and the fight starts when someone walks up to Rodolphus's table

Why it works

• A raid, not a damage sponge: kidnappings, rescues and presents to break open keep the whole group working together

• A fight with a sense of humor: absurd exams, gift-wrapped friends and a Christmas that goes very wrong

• Easy to run: one spawn command for the whole event, with difficulty variants and an editable drop table

Requires the following plugins:

• MythicMobs Premium

• ModelEngine

• MythicCrucible (for the player items)

• WorldEdit or FastAsyncWorldEdit (only for the mansion arena)

• MythicArmors (optional, only for the 3D Christmas armor)
