- Selene
- Path of Stars
Each boss drops a random NPC loot (Echo, Artemis, etc.). The penultimate boss drops two of these loot items.
NEW: Final Gauntlet mode
Puts a boss rush at the end of the Dream Dive. Vow of Rivals will be forced off during the Dream Dive and will be forced on during the gauntlet.
