Entry requirement: None. Travel to the lowest level map of Aqua Road to enter Pianus's cave.
Pianus was originally released as one of the 3 original-generation (OG) major regional bosses. However unlike his Zakum and Papulatus cousins, Pianus boss has yet to receive any updates maybe because the developers have no inkling how to revamp him.
Unique among the 3 OG major bosses, Pianus spawns naturally several times per day in his own boss map that anyone can enter to this day (Zakum and Papulatus have to be summoned through a 'reactor'). This means that players who want to fight Pianus have to 'catch' him when he spawned, and compete for the opportunity to fight Pianus. Usually players will surf channels and enter Pianus's Cave repeatedly to maximize the instances of Pianus they can fight.
It is recommended to be level 100+ and above to fight Pianus.
Pianus Boss Fight[edit | edit source]
- Location: Aqua Road, Aqua Road : Pianus's Cave
- Summoning Requirement: Spawns naturally
Pianus' wrath.
A giant fish named Pianus lies deep in the Aqua Dungeon inside a cavern. It was said that Pianus was a heavenly fish, but had sinned and was cast down from heaven.
Pianus can shoot out a beam across the map and drop ton weights on players.
It also has the ability to summon Blood Boom, which do not move at all. They usually reside on platforms, possibly to knock off Assassins and Bowmen with their high damage. Blood Blooms may also explode when attacked, like Jr. Effies, but in this case they can do up to 8,000 damage (26,000 in some versions) with their explosions! Other than that, it can also cancel out all of a character's power-up skills, forcing the character to activate them again.
Tips
- Right Pianus always spawns first.
- Left Pianus can be spawned if the Right Pianus is not defeated within 5 - 8 hours. Left Pianus has much less hp, does less damage but dispels much more frequently than the Right Pianus.
- All players in the room can pick up Pianus' drops.
- Pianus drops the Level 100 Armors and some skillbooks/mastery guides.
- In GlobalMS, Pianus drops an item called Pianus's Scale, used to forge Bosshunter equipment.
