Oh sweet, a new boss! I can't wait! I wonder what it'll be like! Maybe it has all new abilities, and maybe it will let us get the rest of the Arcane Umbra equipment. Maybe it'll be super powerful...

...Oh...
Well maybe it's server sided, and has a lot more HP than that...

Really Nexon? Propping up weak quest bosses to generate hype? #fakenews

And no, there isn't a stronger version in the game as of now.

    it's just the boss of Arcana, just like the boss of Vanishing Journy, (both happen to be the first part of 3 areas)
    it's also part of the story that this is a "powerful boss" that is corrupting the other spirits.

    wont expect the rest of Arcane equips until we get to the 6th area.

    Clearly the sarcasm went over your head, or you didn't read the entire post.

    Well considering that there is a serious post complaining that the update highlights didn't contain all the info regarding the Legion system, I can see someone making a serious post like this.

    I posted this thread with the intention of showcasing how ridiculous it is for Nexon to put a quest boss on a pedestal as if it's as important as, say, Lucid. Yes, it's part of the story, but in the grand scheme of bosses, you fight it once and then never again.

    The point is to figure out why Nexon is trying to artificially generate hype for a boss that I'm sure someone will be disappointed to find out isn't a significant boss. If you don't like it, too bad.

    They're hyping the boss because it's a boss. It doesn't have to be on par with Lucid for it to be important. It's just building the hype for the area.
    They're doing the same for the OMNI-CLN boss from Omega Sector:

    Difference is you can actually fight that boss every day (does look like a fun boss fight, actually) instead of just once, and it makes sense in that case.

    Considering you can fight both Arma and the Slurpy Tree multiple times, I'm not sure why the Spirit of Harmony might be different. Especially if/when the monsters are added to the collection.

    They didn't dedicate extra space and time to prop those bosses up as if they're the next big thing, that's why. Slurpy Tree is also a quest boss normally, but can be fought multiple times in the Muto PQ. Would be nice if an upcoming Arcana daily would add the Spirit of Harmony as a boss to fight within a PQ or something similar, but I don't know if we're going to get one any time soon.
