The Uber Elder is a dual boss encounter where the player fights both the Elder and the Shaper at the same time. It is the final boss encounter in the War for the Atlas expansion. However, that end-game storyline was retired and replaced by the Conquerors of the Atlas.
The Uber Elder is considered to be one of the most difficult boss encounters in Path of Exile, as players are pitted against both The Elder and The Shaper who perform many of their attacks simultaneously. Players must be very careful to place the Shaper's Vortex portals around the edges of the arena failing which the entire arena will littered with vortices that cause large damage over time. Players have to also avoid the Elder's Ring of Death and the Shaper Beam and Projectiles, all of which can be deadly if not dealt with properly.
The encounter has no phases, however, one of the bosses will be invulnerable, and this will alternate between the two bosses every time the player damages the vulnerable boss for 25% of his health.

Attacks
The Elder is assisted by the Shaper in this battle. The battle essentially pits the player against both bosses, with some differences:
- One of the bosses will be invulnerable, alternating between the two for every 25% health lost. The invulnerable boss will use less attacks than normal. When both bosses are at 25% health, both bosses will be vulnerable.
- Volatile Anomalies and Madness Propagators will continuously spawn during the fight, alternating every 20 seconds.
- There are no special phases from either boss.
- At each 1/4 health lost from both bosses, the Elder or Shaper will spawn additional monsters.
- The Elder will summon multiple Null Portals
- The Shaper channels a monster portal like in his regular fight. Both are invulnerable during this phase.
- The Elder does not use his Super Siphon attack or the debuff Crystalised Fear
- The Shaper does not use his Shadow Clone or Bullet Hell attack.
