As much as I love Quake, I can't help but feel the first boss is too easy. (Even for a first boss) So, I came up with an idea to turn the "House of Chthon" boss battle into a multi-stage boss encounter.
First Stage
-When the Rune is collected, Chthon spawns like normal. However, a set of three Zombies will spawn on either side of the bottom floor. At the same time, three Scrags spawn above.
-Completing this stage is identical to killing Chthon normally: Hit the switches that lower each pillar, then step on the switch that shocks him. Repeat this step two more times on Normal, Hard and Nightmare.
-It should be noted that the first two times you shock Chthon on Hard and Nightmare difficulty, the monsters you've killed will respawn.
Second Stage
-Upon completing the First Stage of the boss battle, a short cutscene showing Chthon will play. Chthon will let loose a tremendous roar and a health bar will appear on the side of the screen.
-An ogre will spawn on each side of the bottom floor every two minutes. (On Hard/Nightmare)
-The player must survive the onslaught of enemies long enough to bring Chthon's health bar down to zero. Once this has been accomplished, Chthon will fall into the lava. Any remaining monsters will die...
Feel free to leave any feedback or comments if you have any.
