It's back for Season 3 as a Seasonal Objective. Look for this Event and the Portal Invasion event (ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-pq3CT2YHuhg.html) to kill those Helltide Commanders! Good Luck!!!
Yep, thanks. Just realized commanders spawn at the special Helltide events. Spent ages looking for Kixxar-something (the huge Helltide bug boss), as I've always thought of it as a random/wandering Helltide boss and can't seem to find him (always found him when I WASN'T looking for him lol), but I guess any Helltide boss will do. And there's at least 2 other, the one you had on this event and the "Portal Invasion" event one.
I guess I wasn't wrong when they are suppose to be spawned at events, but they don't always spawn. I found that out. Only certain events in season 3. Ugh. RNG. Anyway, since when was there 13 potion slots? Haven't played since the base game but there was only ever 9 max from all the renown in the base game.
Keep an eye out for events circles / markers in the Helltide, They can happen at any of those, so it can just be a lot of running around in those hotspots.
They appear in WT3 and 4. It's just random at the end of any event. Seems to be purely RNG though that tornado event has had the best luck for me. Hope you find one!!
I did this event while the option was active twice and I'm still showing 0/5. Thought they might be referring to a different commander, but I guess not?
Apparently there are 5 Helltide Commanders, and you have to kill all 5 with that elixir active. Here are their names so you can track who you have left to kill. Hopefully that helps you out! Cruxx Delakzus Nemnos Zurden Skeizal
