The Netherlord, also known as the Nether King and referred to as a "Nether-Beast" by the Guardian of the Wild, is the lord of the Netherim, who has breached the Clockwork Core, allowing his forces to enter Vilderan. He is the final boss in Torchlight 2.
In the quest The Heart of the World, you must defeat him.
Lore[]
In Torchlight II[]
In Torchlight 2, the Netherlord is the overarching antagonist and the lord of the Netherrealm. He managed to break the Clockwork Core, allowing creatures of the Nether to get into the human realm. He first appears in the battle against Eldrayn, where it is revealed that he has possessed the Grand Regent, and he occasionally manifests in his shadow form during attacks. He later appears in Act IV as the final boss. You must defeat the Netherlord in the last main quest, The Heart of the World, in order to repair the Clockwork Core and ultimately save the world.
Boss Encounter[]
Phase 1[]
The Netherlord starts off in his shadow form. He is fairly easy to beat, providing you have health potions. Once you defeat him in this form, he reaches the next phase.
Phase 2[]
The Netherlord becomes significantly larger and harder to kill. His health greatly increases and he can be challenging to defeat.
Defeat[]
When the Netherlord is defeated, he drops a variety of different items and a boss chest is accessible, with loot inside. A portal to the surface is spawned and you complete the final main quest, and unlock the Mapworks and New Game Plus.
