 The next way to reduce curse are by picking up honey bottles and the [[Encounters#Imps|Imp]]. These lower the player's curse by 1, and every bottle is individual like items, where if one player picks up a bottle, a different player can still pick it up, so that there is no fighting over who gets the bottles.

 The final act of the Pyramid of Prophecy consist of very large, ornate floors that have a lot of gold and ore scattered around. It is common to obtain well over 200k in this act alone.
-One of the notable features on the floor are various number of meditating dijnn around the floor. The amount ranges from 1 to over 5 and is completely random. If the player interacts with one of them, they can open a rift to Semblance This summons a great threat which is a group of 5 dijnn from every opened rift. They will teleport to the player if they are too far away. Rousing a dijnn will remove 5, 7, or 9 curses depending on what floor the player is on. If you have 0 curses and rouse a dijnn, you do not go negative unless you have the Queens Radiance set effect, but only up to the set's maximum reduction for the pieces you have at that point. If the player takes too long (4 minutes) to reach every dijnn, a great threat will be summoned, and if there are any dijnn that haven't been roused yet, one of them at random will be roused without the player getting the curse reduction effect.

 The miniboss of this act are [[Constructs|Sentinel High Priests]] and are often accompanied by other sentinels. They start out as inanimate statues and will animate after a random amount of time of the player being nearby. The regular sentinels come in a melee and ranged variety, the melee ones will charge the player like a spearman undead. The High Priests will fire off snake beams that deal magical damage, and can also fire off 12(?) beams in a circular pattern. These beams have a chance of becoming snakes themselves when they hit a wall close enough to the player. All types of sentinels are able to drop ore and small golden diamonds. If the player is min-maxing the floors, they should take the time to kill all of the sentinels on the floor for extra ore and money. All sentinels will chase the player across the floor without end like the ambushes from act 1.

 Nerys will always start out by attacking with his sword. When he attacks with it, fire waves will shoot out in the direction he swung. These do moderate damage, but are very fast and will boomerang back towards the player, all waves from the same swing converging at the same spot, and will leave a circle of fire on the ground. The player is lit on fire if they are hit by any part of this attack. The further into the fight the player is, the more fire waves will be summoned, with 7(?) being summoned once Nerys reaches 25% hp the first time.

 It should be noted that Nerys moves similarly to a Lich in that he will continually back away from the player, so getting between him and the edge of the room is effective in keeping him closer to the middle.
-When Nerys reaches 75%, 50%, and 25% HP he will heal up to 50% of his max life if the player is not able to deal enough damage to stop further healing. During his heal he will summon other dijnn to fight the player, along with creating large purple orbs in a circular wave that deal very high damage to any players within them when they burst. This wave starts with one orb directly under him, and continues to radiate outwards before repeating. There IS enough space for a melee character to be directly next to Nerys after the first orb bursts without being hit by the second circle of orbs.
