Raid: Shadow Legends Cursed City
The Cursed City screen of the game: four districts of 25 stages each, joined by paths, and the Eclipse Tower in the middle with Amius the Lunar Archon. Here is the city map with every stage on its place, in Normal and Hard: what a battle costs in Cursed Keys, the enemies wave by wave, each boss with stats, skills and the game's own strategy, the Awakened Stages and what the first clear gives. Every boss drops a chest of Supersonic and Merciless gear: artifacts, and on some stages accessories — rings, amulets and banners; rarity and rank vary. Pick a mode, then a stage on the map.

How It Works
Welcome to the Cursed City! You'll need to clear Stages across 4 Districts by moving along paths and defeating enemies, before climbing the Eclipse Tower and fighting Amius the Lunar Archon.
You'll face familiar and new challenges alike, including Double Boss Stages. Taking on two of Teleria's familiar foes at once will reward you with an Eclipse Key as well as other awesome rewards.
You'll need 3 Eclipse Keys to enter the Eclipse Tower at the heart of the Cursed City. There, you'll face off against Amius the Lunar Archon and decide the fate of Sintranos! Good luck!
Every Stage has requirements that you must meet in order to complete it. They might restrict the Rarity, Faction, Type, or Affinity of Champions you can use, and the requirements will get tougher the deeper into the city you go.
Awakened Stages are unique, as you'll need to use Awakened Champions in addition to other requirements. Your team must meet or exceed the required amount of Awakening Levels to start a battle, indicated by red stars on a Champion's portrait.

Strategy
How It Works
-
Borgoth has three major dangers: if any Champion doesn't have Shields and they attack, the whole team can get into a Provoke spiral you can never recover from. If your team has too many Buffs and not enough DEF, Borgoth will use his Vile Absorption skill to strip everything and wreck your team, almost certainly leading to another Provoke spiral. And third, he basically ignores any damage you deal to him until you destroy his MAX HP and break his damage shield.
-
The Scarab King requires extremely specific teams of Champions to overcome. To deal with the Provoke spirals, you need high-SPD Champions that can put up Shield buffs on short cooldowns, preferably more than one. It only takes a single unshielded attack to wipe most teams, so every Champion has to have a Shield at all times. Champions that can extend allied buff durations can help with this, as can any Champions that give themselves Shields every time they attack. You can also make use of the Shield Artifact Set to give your Champions time to use their Shield skills at the start of the battle.
-
As for dealing with the Scarab King's Vile Absorption skill, limiting the types of buffs placed on your team can be a real asset - only bring the buffs you're sure to need. Beyond that, though, high DEF can help your Shields survive the onslaught.
-
Lastly, you will not be able to defeat Borgoth without Champions that can destroy MAX HP. While there aren’t many Champions that can do this inherently, a Champion with a Destroy Artifact Set will be able to do the job.
