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.

    Attacks all enemies. Places a 50% Decrease ACC debuff for 2 turns. Decreases the Turn Meters of all enemies by 30%.

    Also removes all debuffs from Tainted Klyssus.

  • Frozen Reckoning [P]

    Attacks all enemies 1 time whenever Tainted Klyssus's HP drops below 80%, 60%, 45%, 30%, and 15%. This attack will revive any dead minions to 100% HP. This attack will ignore 50% of each enemy's DEF for each alive minion. This attack also has a 20% chance of placing a Freeze debuff for 1 turn. The chance of placing a Freeze debuff increases by 40% for each alive minion.

  • Winter's Power [P]

    Immune to Poison and Poison Sensitivity debuffs. Receives 10% more damage from HP Burn debuffs.

    Whenever a HP Burn debuff is activated on Tainted Klyssus or his minions, destroys the minions' MAX HP by 5%. Whenever a Smite debuff is activated on Tainted Klyssus or his minions, destroys the minions' MAX HP by 10%. Destroyed MAX HP cannot exceed 50%.

    Immune to Stun, Freeze, Sleep, Provoke, Block Active Skills, Block Passive Skills, Fear, True Fear, Petrification, Berserk, Enfeeble, Nullify, Ensnare, Fatigue, and Hunter's Gaze debuffs. Also immune to HP exchange effects, HP balancing effects, and cooldown increasing effects.

Strategy · Tainted Klyssus

How It Works

  1. The key to defeating Tainted Klyssus and his minions is using HP Burn debuffs: not only do they deal increased damage to Tainted Klyssus, but they also destroy his minions' MAX HP. HP Burn Champions will be very efficient here.

  2. Tainted Klyssus constantly revives his minions when his HP drops below a certain threshold. Old strategies still apply here; you can prevent his minions from reviving by using Block Revive debuffs. Alternatively, you can keep the minions alive, place HP Burn debuffs on them and continually extend their duration. This will not only reduce their MAX HP, but deal consistent damage to Tainted Klyssus as well. If you don't have a HP Burn Champion, the Brimstone Blessing can be very useful. The Smite debuff it places will deal extra damage to Tainted Klyssus and his team.

  3. To survive Tainted Klyssus's attacks, you'll need to protect your Champions. For this, you want to place Increase DEF and Shield buffs on your Champions, and maybe consider equipping them with Bolster and Defiant Artifact Sets. Another must-have debuff is Decrease ATK. Tainted Klyssus hits hard, so you'll need to make his hits weaker in order to survive them.

  4. And, of course, you'll want to make sure that you're dealing loads of damage to Tainted Klyssus and his minions – Decrease DEF and Weaken debuffs will help you with that.

Strategy · Agreth

How It Works

  1. Agreth is an interesting challenge, as she thoroughly punishes AoE teams. Spiderling counterattacks will heal Agreth far faster than most teams can hurt her, not to mention the Poison they can stack up on your team. There is also a risk to bringing Champions that reduce Turn Meters, but with enough protection and healing, the risk is worth it.

  2. It’s crucial to make sure that Spiderlings never counterattack or get a turn, so bringing Champions with AOE Stuns or Freezes will help you to defeat the Boss.

  3. Last but not least, you will need to remove Poison from your team. These debuffs can’t be blocked or resisted, so the only way to deal with them is to remove them, and quickly - the Nether Spider will spit them back as direct damage every time she gets a turn, so waiting them out isn’t an option. However, they only deal damage, so powerful healing can counteract the effects if you can’t remove debuffs fast enough.
