Elite Waves

Elite Waves are intense combat sequences in 33 Immortals that feature enhanced enemy formations, stronger Monsters, and mini-boss style mechanics. These waves test team coordination and personal skill, often acting as key moments in Chambers, Torture Chambers, or event-based objectives. Defeating them typically rewards high-tier loot and enables progression through the rebellion.

Overview[edit | edit source]

Unlike standard waves, Elite Waves spawn multiple Elite Monsters simultaneously — each with special abilities, increased durability, and combat roles that challenge specific player weaknesses. These enemies may apply Status Effects like Slowed or Marked, use AoE attacks, or summon reinforcements.

Elite Waves are often timed, layered with hazards, or accompanied by modifiers that raise the stakes of each encounter.

Key Features[edit | edit source]

Composed primarily of Elite Monsters
May involve staggerable mini-bosses or special mechanics
Typically appear mid-Chamber or toward the end of wave encounters
Usually marked by visual and audio cues — such as area-wide pulses or roars

Where They Appear[edit | edit source]

Elite Waves are commonly found in:

Chambers – As a final wave or difficulty spike
Torture Chambers – Often used to gate final relic rewards
Dynamic Events – Area-wide raids, surprise invasions, or mission challenges
High-tier zones like Purgatorio and Paradiso

Strategy[edit | edit source]

Focus fire to remove one Elite at a time — especially support units
Use Charge Attacks and Special Abilities to apply Stagger Buildup
Stack Co-op Powers for burst windows during enemy downtime
Prioritize crowd control via Slowed or AoE abilities to manage pressure
Watch out for Elite-specific mechanics, such as zone denial or healing buffs

Rewards[edit | edit source]

Clearing Elite Waves grants some of the most valuable loot available during a rebellion run, such as:

Rare or enhanced Relics
Fragments used for rerolls or relic enhancement
Large amounts of Souls, Dust, or Bones
Possible drops of Chest Keys or Currencies of the Dead

Indicators[edit | edit source]

Areas may darken, pulse, or sound alarms prior to Elite Wave appearance
Enemy spawn points glow red or are surrounded by corruption effects
Boss-style health bars may appear if an Elite with phase transitions spawns

Summary[edit | edit source]

Elite Waves are the crucible of strength in *33 Immortals*. They demand precision, unity, and timing — rewarding only those Rebels who strike together and think ahead. Face them prepared, and you’ll claim power worthy of the Immortal name.
