Moder Boss Guide — Summon, Fight, Drops

Where to find Moder

Moder is the fourth Forsaken and rules the Mountain. Her altar sits on a summit, and you call her with three Dragon Eggs — heavy items that spawn on exposed peaks and stone ledges across the biome, so the collection trip is a fight against the frost as much as against the drakes guarding them.

Attack pattern

Moder is an aerial boss, which changes the shape of the fight entirely: she circles, then commits. Expect a dive-bomb melee run, a wide cone of ice breath that punishes standing still, and a local blizzard that layers frost damage on top of the biome’s own cold. The real threat is positional — the arena is an open summit with drops on every side.

Fight tips

• Fire is the answer. Frost damage does nothing to her, so leave the frost arrows at camp.
• Fight the arena, not just the boss: keep your back to open ground and never trade hits near a cliff lip.
• Ranged is safer than melee here — the dive attack is hard to read up close, and a bow lets you reposition while she turns.
• Sort frost damage first. If the Mountain is still chewing your health during the fight, you are losing twice.

Drops and Forsaken Power

Defeating Moder grants Dragon Tears (×10), the progression item that opens the Plains route, and the Moder Trophy for the offering stone at your base. Claiming the Moder Power gives a tailwind while sailing (it lasts 300 seconds), a large carry-weight increase, extra movement speed and frost resistance — a genuine quality-of-life buff for the long ocean crossings and ore hauls the later biomes demand.
