Artist Rendition

Egregore, the Zeitgeist Eternal, also known as the Great Flag-Eater, is a pretender to Lord of the God Kings. An emergent ego-spectre of groupthink, he distinguishes himself above the Universal mind. It is theorized that he may be President Jaguar.

Etymology

From French égrégore (“spirit of a group”), from the Ancient Greek substantive of ἐγρήγορος (egrḗgoros, “wakeful”) meaning watcher, angel in the Book of Enoch. An egregore is a concept in Western esotericism of a non-physical entity or thoughtform that arises from the collective thoughts and emotions of a distinct group of individuals.

Lord Egregore is traditionally given masculine pronouns, despite transcending traditional concepts of gender.

Description and Characteristics

All the Flags will be hoarded in his camp. He is ruler of the coming age, he is patriarch of the high school. His gaze is blank and pitiless as the sun. His chariot is pulled by lesser gods. His voice is like an airhorn.

Fight Strategy

  • For Melee users, stand a bit in front of his left leg from the outside, dodging behind it offers the best versatility in terms of  safety, damage and punishes
  • When Lord Egregor spawns his Holy Hammer and goes for an Overhead Slam, put some distance between you both and roll into him, that usually forces Egregor to finish the combo with his Sword Slash, Triple Sword Holy Sword Spin into Swords Slam (Helicopter) and gives a huge punish window for tons of damage
  • Dodging behind Lord Egregor when he does a Sword attack usually ends up with him doing a slash behind him and jumping away from the player
  • In Second Phase, weather changes to rain and arena gets covered with water making Lightning damage much better than Fire overall
