==== Step 12: Kill Imohep ====
This boss is quite hard and a blocker is recommended. //Make sure to dodge the AOE as it can one shot you// and make sure to coordinate with your group.

===== Tips and Tricks: =====

==== Tip 1: Bring Friends ==== 
Creatures get stronger and stronger as you progress through the dimensions. Bring friends speeds this up drastically.
==== Tip 2: Move Slow ==== 
If it's hard, move slower, spawns don't force respawn and it may be quite the run to return if you die, so play it safe and go slow
==== Tip 3: Boss 3 ==== 
While the first 2 bosses can be by yourself, it's definitely recommended you bring a team for boss 3. If you die you have to go back through all the dimensions to return, so prepare before hand.
