=== Serviceway #763 ===
There are multiple trash pulls in these hallways. After the party defeats them, they gain access to Machinery Bay 66. This area does not appear on Savage difficulty.
=== Machinery Bay 66 ===
This area does not contain any bosses, but does contain a bridge leading to Machinery Bay 67. On a wipe in Savage difficulty, the party respawns here| a 10:30 enrage timer begins when they pull Machinery Bay 67, similar to the "clicks" from Turn 2. On Normal difficulty, however, progress does not reset.
=== Machinery Bay 67 ===
This circular platform is the boss arena of Blaster. Occasionally clones of Blaster will spawn and fire at random party members in a straight line, and should be dodged.
=== Machinery Bay 68 ===
This room contains Brawler. Brawler will periodically hold one or two cannons up in the air| a single cannon is a tank buster, while double cannons indicate that the party should stack to mitigate damage. The boss also uses a drill attack which hits a random party member for proximity damage.
=== Machinery Bay 69 ===
This platform contains both raised and lowered sections, as well as the boss, Swindler. Swindler will inflict party members with either High Arithmeticks (a purple debuff, which causes Bio-Arithmeticks to deal more damage when not standing on a lowered square) or Low Arithmeticks (a red debuff, which deals more damage when not standing in a raised square). The boss also targets players with an indicator that causes a certain number of glowing balls to spawn above them. Exactly that many players must stack to negate damage, or the victim will be inflicted with Vulnerability stacks or will die.
=== Machinery Bay 70 ===
The final boss of the gauntlet, Vortexer, spawns here. Vortexer uses a Liquid Hell-like attack, as well as causing Compressed Water to spawn. When players are targeted by a circle of ice, they should use it to freeze the water, creating a block of ice that can be used to line-of-sight Vortexer's ultimate attack, Ultra Flash.
The party obtains loot after defeating Vortexer.
