Boss · The Coven Mother
"Another meal wanders into my kitchen... let's see how long you last before you rot."
The witch coven's leader and easily the most mobile of the Spire's bosses — she teleports constantly, channels her sisters' signature attacks from the corners of her own room, and calls the coven in when she's hurting. Four Suspicious Cauldrons stand around her arena, cycling between healing mist and toxic bursts.
Found in: Withering Spire

Passive (all phases) — a constant poison aura and a rotating attack of Poison Volley (a triple poison-burst thrown at range) and Toxic Cleave (a melee poison nova), plus Bubbling Ground — a delayed totem that erupts under a player's feet for 6 damage and poison.
Phase 1 (100%–70%) — the base rotation above, cycling every few seconds.
Phase 2 (70%–35%) — she starts teleporting to the corners of the room and channeling her coven-sisters' signature attacks against the whole party before blinking back to center and hitting the nearest targeted spot for bonus damage:
Transition — "ENOUGH! I'll rot you where you stand!" (~20%, once) — she stops teleporting away and commits to the fight.
Phase 3 (below 35%, and a fog pulse from 70%–20%)
Rotted Hags occasionally throw up a decoy witch clone (a 10 HP illusion that giggles and lobs a potion before vanishing) — don't waste a real combo on one.
