  • The Ancient waits in the first room of the act's map, before any fight.
  • It isn't tied to one act: each run deals it to Act 2, Act 3 or neither, so it shows up in at most one act per run.
  • Arriving heals all your missing HP (80% of it from Ascension 2).
  • Chances assume single player with every Ancient unlocked.
