Coral Defenders

The herd consists of a particularly powerful Bolteater Bathysmal Vishap and Rimebiter Bathysmal Vishap. In order to challenge them, the player must have completed the .
These Bathysmal Vishaps were specifically modified by the Vishap Research Lab to accept grafted fragments of Orobashi's Bloodbranch Coral without adverse side effects, making them exceptionally large and powerful. This was a painstaking process, since beings of the Light Realm (such as Vishaps) naturally reject those of the Human Realm (which includes the Gods).

In the Spiral Abyss and Imaginarium Theater, the Coral Defenders lose the Assist and Critical Assist attacks, but gain the following ability:
==Strategy==
* Dodging the Cleansing Shower orbs or having characters with high Energy Recharge is beneficial for this fight as having low Energy can prove to be fatal if the player cannot dodge their Cleansing Shower attacks.
* The pillars that the Bolteater Vishap jumps onto are Geo Constructs and can be easily destroyed using Blunt Attacks. Alternatively, try to stay far away from the Bolteater Vishap, as the orbs are harder to dodge while up close.

==Trivia==
* Despite being a herd which would consist of numerous members, this challenge only consists of two boss enemies.
** This also makes it the first normal boss challenge that doesn't consist of a single, unique enemy. Others include the Icewind Suite and Dual Maguu Kenki.
* The Coral Defenders were the first Normal Boss with their own battle music, No Turning Back, a remix of Beats of Water Drops.
* The Coral Defenders are the only Normal Boss that lacks an archive entry. Rather, the Bolteater Bathysmal Vishap and Rimebiter Bathysmal Vishap have their own archive entries.
* If the Coral Defenders are killed with one of them in a Critical Assist state, the vishap in that state will simply disappear with no death animation played.
* The walls in the boss fight used for skills such as Assist are considered .
