Arkhos is the sixth Eternal and the second boss encountered in Underworld Tier 2. He is one of the three bosses of the second floor (Along with Fatum and Hoaxen).

He wields The Sting as his weapon and fights with him carry random rules.
The players can obtain the keys to fight him by defeating Fatum. If the players do not have any Arkhos keys, they can buy one key for 70 gems.
In battle, Arkhos is very aggressive. His speed is very high and his attacks can reach a considerable range. He can easily take away players' health with his attacks. Arkhos is immune to the Stun enchantment.
After the fight with him, Arkhos mentions the one that rules over the Eternals. If the player loses, he threatens the player by saying that he will report their failure to the Creator. After he is defeated, he asks why the Creator has forsaken him, for he has failed him again.

Arkhos has the ability to summon a wave of rats that travel the ground to damage the player. The wave deals 45% damage and it works similar to Dark Implosion magic. The players can avoid the wave by jumping, or they can prevent Arkhos from using it by either attacking him while he is trying to summon the wave or staying close to him.
