Path of Exile 2 Boss Guide: How to Defeat Eternal Praetor Draven in Sorrow Among Stones
Eternal Praetor Draven is the final boss of Chapter 1 in Path of Exile 2, encountered in the Tomb of the Immortal Empire. This fight is far more than a DPS check—it’s a tactical, movement-heavy battle filled with add management and phase shifts. If you’re not ready to control the arena, Draven will overwhelm you.
Draven Boss Mechanics – What You’re Up Against
Ghouls Are the Real Threat
From the moment the fight begins, ghouls start spawning and moving toward Draven. If three ghouls reach him, he gains a buff that boosts both attack and movement speed for 20 seconds and unleashes a deadly Soul Shot wave. The key? Keep the ghouls away. You’ll need to stay mobile and manipulate positioning to keep Draven out of their path.
Pro Tip: When Draven is glowing with an aura, he's empowered. Wait for it to fade before pushing damage again.
The Arena: A Trap-Filled Graveyard
The arena is crawling with dormant ghouls. If you step on them, they resurrect into Eternal Knights. These aren’t just extra enemies—they reset the ghoul cycle. When an Eternal Knight dies, its corpse becomes a new resurrection trigger.
Manage your movement carefully. Avoid triggering too many Knights at once or you’ll get overwhelmed fast.
Phase Two – Asinia Joins the Fray
When Draven drops below 66% HP, he gets backup. Asinia, his spouse, enters the arena, ramping up both pressure and ghoul spawns. At this point, the fight becomes a full-blown battlefield skirmish.
Strategy Tip: Drag Draven into a corner. By limiting his movement, you reduce the chance of ghouls reaching him. This makes it easier to keep control even when things get chaotic.
Victory and Rewards
Survive both phases, manage the ghouls, and take down Draven to earn a Draven’s Memory Key Fragment—your ticket forward in the campaign. But be warned: this fight tests both mechanics and awareness. It’s not just about damage—it’s about smart movement and timing.
