The Forbidden Vault
When you make an entry to the Masterminds Lair, you get into the Forbidden Vault where you get to know that the mastermind is none other than Caterina, you need to defeat her there while she defends herself with fierce attacks. After enough damage is done, Caterina comes out with zombified versions of Jun’s family to personally attack you, when you defeat them, Caterina retreats through a portal and runs away to the Sculpture Garden.
The Sculpture Garden
The sculpture garden is a vast square area with 4 logos in specific four corners and a big statue placed at the center. The fight goes on and when Caterina’s health pool attains a value of 90 per cent, she will be sent to the center of the square area and some of the Syndicate leaders will be released to attack you, meanwhile, she heals and gets ready to resume her assault, the statue towards the center starts to cast spells periodically and unleashes them in a clockwise stance.
If you defeat Caterina once again, those corner logos will connect you to a green line. Catarina can’t be attacked at this point, she is at an invulnerable stage, you have to run to the logo connected to your path and wait there for a few seconds and wait for the logo to be destroyed, you will face the destruction as the logo explodes, the area will go through severe damage, and you will need to step out of it. After all this, Caterina will be again teleported to the center of the area and another syndicate leader will be released to attack you and fight with you till she heals. The phase continues till only one logo is left and all the ads have been killed and Catarina will clear off the last logo herself, and finally when her health pool repletes to 0, the game is over. The game becomes a part of PoE trading when you start to buy Exalted orbs and start playing commercially as well.
The Unearthed Hideout
When Caterina flees in the game, you can chase her by making your way through the Unearthed Hideout. This is a phase you need to cut through before arriving at the Sculpture Garden, by killing monsters and finally reaching the garden.
