'''{{PAGENAME}}''', also known as the '''Mid Boss''', '''The Boss''' or '''Temple Guardian''''','' is a powerful neutral jungle boss with strong attacks and a regenerating shield to defend itself. Teams of [[Heroes]] may attempt to kill Mid-Boss which immediately grants permanent stats for the team that defeats it, as well as an opportunity to obtain '''[[Rejuvenator]] Credits''', allowing heroes to revive upon death.

After '''{{#expr:{{NpcData|npc_super_neutral|InitialSpawnDelay}}/60}}''' minutes have elapsed in a match, the Mid-Boss will spawn underground in the sewers in the center of the map. Its arrival is announced through a loud roar, followed by the [[Patron]]'s announcement, ''"The Mid-Boss has arrived"''. While Mid-Boss is alive, a golden [[Rejuvenator]] symbol will appear at its location in the minimap.
At the beginning of the match, the Mid-Boss will spawn underground in the sewers in the center of the map. While the Mid-Boss is alive, a golden [[Rejuvenator]] symbol will appear at its location in the minimap.


The path to the Mid-Boss' pit can be found in entrances marked with the Rejuvenator sign, at the [[Lanes|Blue lane]]. These entrances will also have a glowing Rejuvenator symbol above them when the Mid-Boss has respawned.

The Mid-Boss is initially dormant and will not attack anyone outside its pit. As soon as a player has entered the pit, the Mid-Boss will attack by channeling a bright purple beam onto them, dealing [[Weapon Damage]]. If multiple players are inside the pit, it will prioritize the closest one. Additionally, the Mid-Boss can only be damaged by players who are inside its pit, and will be completely invulnerable to outside attacks.

Unlike most units, Mid-Boss has a special shield surrounding it at all times that prevents it from taking health damage. In order to actually harm it, enough damage needs to be dealt to deplete the constantly regenerating shield, which can prove difficult for individual or unprepared players. The damage shield starts at '''{{NpcData|npc_super_neutral|ShieldLogic|BaseAbsorptionPerSecond}}''' HP and increases at '''{{NpcData|npc_super_neutral|ShieldLogic|ScalingAbsorptionPerMinute}}''' HP/minute (85 HP when the Mid-Boss first spawns).

Once Mid-Boss has reached 50% Health, it will roar once again, announcing to both teams that it is close to death.

When the Mid-Boss is slain, the killing team gains {{Souls|{{DataProp|Convar|citadel_super_neutral_gold_reward}}}} (+ {{Souls|{{DataProp|Convar|citadel_super_neutral_gold_reward_bonus_per_minute}}}}/min) souls, 2 [[Golden Statue]] buffs per player and a Rejuvenator crystal spawns above the pit to begin its slow descent, which takes 6 seconds. The Rejuvenator crystal is not targetable as it descends and cannot be claimed until it has fully landed on the ground. Once landed, attacking it with a heavy [[melee attack]] grants a '''Rejuvenator Credit''' to the entire team. Each heavy melee hit on the crystal grants one credit, up to 3 for each Mid-Boss kill. The first credit claimed will also grant a 100% heal to the hero. Either team may take rejuvenator credits regardless of which team kills the Mid-Boss, allowing for players to steal rejuvenators after the Mid-Boss has been slain.
