The first stage of The Shaper fight is carried on the X-shaped area. There are 4 portals to arenas for 4 minibosses (the pool is draw from existing map bosses, or at least existing boss that released before version 2.4.0). After that, there is a portal to the arena proper for the Shaper. The fight is divided in phases, which the Shaper would teleport the player character twice to another linear areas for another minibosses The Uncreated and The Unshaped. Killing the two minibosses will teleport the player character back to the Shaper's arena.

Lore

A dialogue was added circa War for the Atlas expansion, which explain the function of the area in the game lore:

"

I think I understand it now... This Atlas, these maps... they aren't so much worlds as they are like the performance stage in the Theopolis Amphitheatre. These worlds are merely disguises for what truly lies behind the curtain.

This place... this is the nexus of the Elder's worlds, the place from which all its hunting grounds are formed... We are close to the void from which it was birthed, yet my Father has chosen this as his home. Curious indeed. Hiding in plain sight perhaps? Though, what captain regularly frequents the bowels of his ship? Maybe the Elder rarely visits this place. It is busy, I suppose, hunting and feasting elsewhere in the maps...

Exile, I will ready my Father's memories. You go on ahead, scout this place, find my Father, but be wary of what horrors might lurk down here in the belly of this evil machine.
