The Pathshaper is a boss enemy in the Integrated Strategies game mode of Arknights, acting as one of the possible mid-bosses in Mizuki & Caerula Arbor.

Description

Drains 5 Life Points when entering objective point. Every 3rd attack summons a [Pathshaper Fractal]. Summons a [Pathshaper Fractal] after taking a number of attacks.

Overview[]

Seaborn searching for a path for we many. Summons Pathshaper Fractal after attacking and being attacked a number of times.

We have slain it many times, but it continues to reappear in the same form as before. The price we must pay to defeat it grows steeper and steeper with time. Perhaps, it may never rest until we have completely perished.

A bipedal Seaborn closely resembling the late Garcia tasked with proliferating and using its spawn to identify evolutionary paths for the Seaborn to take, the Pathshaper has good all-around stats including high HP and ATK along with significant mixed defenses, making it a formidable foe in combat. However, its true power lies in the ability to summon a Pathshaper Fractal on every third attack and whenever it takes 10 instances of damage (although the Pathshaper can only summon up to eight Fractals this way). Should the Pathshaper is defeated, all of the Fractals will automatically be defeated as well.

Combined with the Fractals' high HP and ability to summon more Fractals in a similar manner, the Pathshaper can overwhelm defenses lacking in heavy area-of-effect damage or blocking.

The Pathshaper will deduct 5 Life Points in the event it managed to enter a Protection Objective, so exercise caution.
