Abilities and modifiers

Stygian Spire's primary ability is to fire physical mortar projectiles (AbyssPillarMortar) when reaching certain thresholds of life, up to a maximum of three times. These mortars create Abyss pits once they hit the ground, which subsequently spawn several normal to rare rarity Abyss monsters. This skill is not affected by modifiers that increase projectile count.

As an enemy, the Spire has Totem-like behaviour in its interaction with area effects.

Version history

Version	Changes
3.24.0	Fixed a bug where Stygian Spires were affected by "Monsters fire additional Projectiles" modifiers.
3.23.1	The "Additional Monster Projectiles" Private League modifier no longer causes Stygian Spires to fire additional projectiles. This modifier is once again available when creating a new Private League, and existing Private Leagues with this modifier will have this re-enabled shortly after this patch is deployed.
3.21.0	Abyssal Depths now always contain a Lich. Because the rate of encountering Abyssal Liches is unchanged, Abyssal Depths are rarer than before. It is now possible for a Stygian Spire to spawn in the place of an Abyssal Trove at the end of an Abyss, which will drop all of the jewels and other items you would normally receive as well as a Stygian Vise. The Lightless Legion Atlas Notable Passive has been renamed to Inspired Darkness. It no longer grants Monster Level, increased number of Magic and Rare Monsters, or increased Pack Size for Abyssal Depths in your Maps. Instead, it now provides "Stygian Spires in your Maps drop Items with +1 to Item Level". Stygian Spires no longer gain a reduced Damage Taken buff upon using their skills. Instead, they now spawn with a reduced Damage Taken buff which tapers off over 5 seconds, and their life has been increased. The thresholds they spawn minions has also been adjusted. The health of Stygian Spires and Stygian Hearts spawned in Amanamu's fight has been increased.
3.12.0	Fixed a bug where you could get stuck in Stygian Spire Abyssal Depths encounters.
3.4.0	Delve version is introduced.
3.2.0	Abyssal Depths can no longer appear in areas below level 70. Fixed a bug where the Stygian Spires could spawn too few monsters from the abysses they create.
3.1.0	Introduced to the game.
