The lure of battle is never too far away during adventures in Sanctuary, and players will have to get used to getting into scraps in Diablo 4. Depending on the location and luck, this could mean easy fights against the normal mobs or more dangerous ones with Elites coming to play. Of course, then there are the dungeons and story objectives where boss battles are to be expected.
One of those will await during Act 5, with players now back in the region of Hawezar in search of the town of Yngovani. With progression key to continuing the story, players will have to ready themselves for a poisonous bout ahead. This guide on how to beat Mohlon in Diablo 4 will be very helpful in this aspect.
Getting to Mohlon in Diablo 4
Once players obtain the objective to get to Yngovani, which is located in Hawezar, there is a need to hunt down two eyes for the Serpent Wall. One is located on the eastern side of the swamp at a Destroyed Serpent Shrine, while the other can be found to the far north, where a dying bandit has it in his possession.
With both eyes, head back to the Serpent Wall and insert them, opening the way to the Serpent's Lair. Be sure to upgrade relevant gear and prepare some potions to counter poison for the fight ahead.
How to Beat Mohlon in Diablo 4
Once players activate the Incense Box in the lair, Mohlon the Snake Queen will make her grand appearance. As a snake, she will use plenty of poisonous attacks that can easily defeat anyone who is not prepared, so be sure to have the right equipment and gear, such as an Elixir of Poison Resistance, for defense and offense.
Her attacks to avoid include:
- A sweeping attack using its tail, so dodge toward the back to avoid any big damage.
- A projectile attack using poisonous spit. This can be negated by moving either side of the spit.
Mohlon's attacks will generally get stronger as her health is whittled down, and in addition, she will be summoning help from other enemies as the fight goes on. Get rid of all the eggs surrounding the tight arena if possible, and watch out for more snakes joining the party. AoE damage will come in handy at the latter stages, so be liberal with skills that can do just that.
Upon defeating the Snake Queen, open the chest to get the Mystic Incense, which can be brought to Taissa to continue the main storyline of Diablo 4.
Diablo 4 is available for PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
