**The Mother Lode** is an very powerful boss that can rarely spawn under certain circumstances.

## Technical Design

The Mother Lode's base is a Nonagon, it has 9 trap launchers on each of its sides. The second layer is an Octogon and has 8 minion spawners, its color being the same as a barrel. The third layer is a Heptagon, it having 7 Sprayer Auto-Cannons. The final layer is a Hexagon, it has 6 Ranger Auto-Cannons.

## Spawning

The Mother Lode has a 1/1000 chance of spawing every minute. Therefore, an average of 1 Mother Lode will spawn every 16.67 hours. However, there are some preconditions that must be met before The Mother Lode can spawn.

If the server is a Teams server, the required amount of players is 35 players. A celestial counts as 1.5 players due to the celestial's increased power. If the condition is not met, then the check will always fail.

If the server is a FFA server, the required amount is 40 players. A celestial counts as 1.5 players. If the condition is not met, then the check will always fail.

The Mother Lode cannot spawn in the Crossroads, Sanctuary, Abyss, or Spawn Capture.

## Strategy

**Against The Mother Lode**

The Mother Lode possesses an incredible offense and a highly capable defense. It is not recommended to fight The Mother Lode in a small group of tanks, as the minions spawned by The Mother Lode are powerful enough to breach the defense of a small group of tanks. Attempting to fight The Mother Lode alone is likely a death wish, as the offensive power of The Mother Lode is more than enough to penetrate the defense of many tanks, and even some bosses.

In order to counter the extraordinary offense that The Mother Lode possesses, many tanks of the Trapper branch will be needed to prevent the group from being overwhelmed. Tanks that are higher than level 60 are ideal. A group of several Riot-Fabricators will be ideal. As the Riots can protect, and the Fabricator body has a healing aura, which will increase the odds of survival. Many tanks of high-DPS will be needed to not only kill the minions that The Mother Lode spawns, but to break through the powerful traps that The Mother Lode fires. Tanks such as Disperse or Penta are ideal for dealing damage, and the Amalgam is also a good option. By following these recommendations, The Mother Lode can be defeated.
