Zombot Amalgamatronic Abomination

Zombot Amalgamatronic Abomination is the first boss in The Sanctuary, the fourth corrupted boss and the final Zombot in Plants vs. Zombies: Lost World, appearing on Level 4B.
Like all other Zombots, the Zombot Amalgamatronic Abomination has an attack that can destroy all plants and zombies in the lanes that they occupy. For this Zombot, the attack involves charging a beam of corrupted energy before it is released down the two lanes the Zombot occupies.
The Zombot Amalgamatronic Abomination is also able to release a blast of corrupted energy into the air, which disturbs nearby corrupted seed pods in the level and causes about 5 - 8 of The Wilted to spawn at random locations on the lawn.
The Zombot Amalgamatronic Abomination uses an unconventional way to carry out special attacks, where it will utilize one of the reality rifts in the level (more on this later) to briefly change forms and transform into any of the other previous Zombots in the game and perform a special attack that is unique to the Zombot they change into before changing back to its original form.
Another special attack that the Zombot Amalgamatronic Abomination can use is one which sets up towers that hold corrupted orbs called Nexuses. This special attack is shared between all bosses in The Sanctuary, and each time the attack is performed, two towers will be set up in random free tiles on the lawn. Nexuses give damage resistance to the Zombot itself as well as any allies (i.e. zombies and The Wilted) in a 3×3 area. Each Nexus has 1000 DPS worth of health, gives 40% unstackable damage resistance to allies and gives the Zombot 20% stackable damage resistance.
Like other corrupted Zombots, Zombot Amalgamatronic Abomination can bend reality and create rifts similarly to how this occurs during levels in level path E's (more about level paths here). See more about the possible reality rifts Zombot Amalgamatronic Abomination can create in the Reality rifts section of this page. Due to the high difficulty of the fight against this Zombot, the conveyor belt in the boss level will supply seed packets much faster than usual.

==Reality rifts==
Zombot Amalgamatronic Abomination can use their corrupted energy to create reality rifts. These rifts, unlike those from levels in level path E, are temporary, and each will only take place during certain phases of the boss fight (see the Phases section of this page for this). The following are the possible rifts Zombot Frost Wanderer can create:
*Zombot rift - The Zombot may change forms in order to switch to a new set of attacks used by other previous Zombots for them to utilize.
*Nexus rift - Nexuses may become unstable from overloading corruption and occasionally shoot stray bolts that cause random explosions on the lawn (destroying all plants and zombies on the struck tile and stunning others in a 3×3 area).
*Gimmick rift - The active gimmicks (e.g. lightning and blizzards, excluding obstacle gimmicks like rapids or lava tiles) currently in the level may drastically change to a new set of gimmicks.
*Conveyor belt rift - Also used by the Zombot Electric Leviathan. Seed packets will no longer remain on the conveyor belt when they’ve reached the end of it, and will instead move out the belt.
==Phases==
The Zombot Amalgamatronic Abomination is able to perform one of the following actions:
*It will create a portal using corrupted energy to summon zombies. The types of zombies that come out from the portal depend on the phase.
*It can release a corrupted energy blast into the air which disturbs nearby corrupted seed pods and spawns numerous Wilted plants.
*It can perform any special attack unique to any of the Zombots from all previous areas in the game, depending on the current form the Zombot takes thanks to the Zombot rift.
*It can set up a Nexuses in random tiles, which are mechanical towers that hold corrupted orbs that give damage resistance to the Zombot itself and nearby allies (i.e. zombies and The Wilted) in a 3×3 area.
*The Zombot can slowly charge a beam of corrupted energy before they release it down the two lanes it occupies, annihilating all plants and zombies present in those lanes.
**Most Plant Food effects can stop the Zombot while they are charging the energy beam.
*The Zombot can use its corrupted energy to create reality rifts that last for the duration of one or more phases (refer to the table and the Reality rifts section of this page to know the details).
Phase	Health 	Summoned zombies	Reality rifts
1 	10000DPS	 	Zombot and conveyor belt rift
2 	12000DPS	 	Zombot and gimmick rift
3 	15000DPS	* 	Zombot, Nexus and conveyor belt rift
4 	18000DPS	* 	Zombot, Nexus and gimmick rift
There's no Attack column for this table since the all of the attacks stated earlier can happen in any phase.
* - Froggo Zombie/Mountain Goat Zombie appears in their corrupted form in this phase. They will also spawn on their own without the aid of the Zombot (Froggo Zombie will appear from puddles).
==Strategies==
Just like most Zombots from PvZ2, Zombot Amalgamatronic Abomination has the ability to take out two whole lanes of plants. As the Zombot will take time to do this by charging their corrupted energy beam, during this duration, use a plant's Plant Food power to damage the Zombot to prevent them from releasing their energy beam. Due to Plant Food being the only way to stop this attack, it is recommended to save up Plant Food for situations like these, but, however, even if you don’t happen to have Plant Food, the damage can still be compensated for, since the zombies in the same lanes will also get taken out. Plus, with a conveyor belt supplying seeds, you can repair the damage done quickly.
Since the Zombot Amalgamatronic Abomination is able to activate the Zombot rift and utilize any special attack that all of the other Zombots in the game are able to use, it's tricky to summarize the strategies you can use in order to counter all the possible attacks. Plus, the gimmick rift during the second and fourth phases can force you to deal with different sets of gimmicks in the level, also prompting changes in strategies. Because of this, you'll need to be prepared to be flexible and adapt during this boss battle, adapting your defense and strategy in order to counter the attacks and gimmicks that may be presented to you during the level. If you are particularly struggling with certain attacks or gimmicks, you can try to identify what weaknesses in your defense you need to work on and take a look at the strategy sections of the other Zombots in the game to see their respective counters.
When the Zombot Amalgamatronic Abomination starts setting up Nexuses, it's recommended you take them out as quick as possible, considering how potent the support it gives to the Zombot, zombies and The Wilted is with the significant damage resistance boost, making it much harder for you to take out enemies and deal damage to the Zombot. Plus, during the third and fourth phase of the boss fight, the Nexus rift can cause the Nexuses to start shooting stray bolts that destroy anything it hits while also stunning everything adjacent to the tile it hit, which can be detrimental if the bolt so happens to shoot into your defenses. Since Nexuses don't have a particular counter, you'll have to use brute force in order to get rid of them. Thankfully, Nexuses themselves don't gain damage resistance and their health is somewhat less than that of a Buckethead, so as long as the Nexuses aren't too crowded with enemies, you can utilize your plants' high firepower to take them out with ease. If the Nexuses do turn out to be hard to target due to its position or the amount of enemies around it, and start causing your defenses to get overwhelmed, you can use any spare instant-kill plants or Plant Food you may have if you deem it necessary.
The conveyor belt rift encourages the usage of seed packets as soon as they are supplied rather than saving them for when they're needed in order to not waste the seed packets, which can be limiting in some ways (one example is saving up instant-use plants for situations when you genuinely need them). Since this rift already happens during the first phase, you'll need to be careful about this rift when you start building your defense and already plan your strategy when the boss battle begins. Make sure to think quickly and decide what you will do with each seed packet that arrives on the conveyor belt, as you should aim to use all of them and not risk losing any of them to get the most out of all the seed packets (the same goes for instant-use plants, use them in the best way you can for the current situation when they do appear on the conveyor belt).
