Just right click the YouTube video and click loop to get it to behave like a GIF.

Recommended Team Setup

Bard

Impairment

Recommended Items

Shield Talisman | Water Bomb

General Battle Mechanics

  • Yoho goes through 3 phases. She starts at the 1st phase and everytime she TPs, she enters the next phase.

  • Yoho's 2nd and 3rd phase give her access to upgraded and/or new attacks.

  • Throughout the battle, you will have a chance to attain an attack buff which greatly increases your AP and AS.

  • This attack buff applies a burn debuff on you so make sure you have 100% burn immunity.

  • The most common method is when the boss uses her breath attack.

  • Getting hit by the fire will give you this attack buff.

  • Have a bard shield before entering the fire or use a shield talisman.

  • She will usually use her breath shortly after she turns pink.

  • Yoho does this ring move during 1st phase.

  • When the move ends, the person with the lowest health gets the attack buff (not percentage health).

  • Since bard's are usually the one with the lowest health, they have to use spacebar to get out of the ring.

  • You see in this video, the bard gets the buff at the end of the move, which shouldn't have happened.

  • You cannot just walk out of the ring because it pushes you back towards Yoho.

  • Yoho does move during 2nd phase.

  • You must get hit by 3 orbs to get the attack buff.

  • Yoho periodically does a 360 spin move that causes random areas on the floor to be on fire.

  • Since these fires can sometimes interrupt with DPSing, players throw water bombs on those areas to clear.

  • Do not waste a water bomb on such a small area like this berserker though.

  • Yoho will periodically try and powerup. Impairment required is fairly low and this is free time to DPS.

1st Phase Moveset

Clones

  • Screams, TPs, screams again, does a 360, and spawns a clone that also does a 360.

Flash

  • Faster version of charge.

  • Telegraphed by Yoho kneeling a bit before going further.

Jump

  • Telegraphed by Yoho kneeling down and getting ready to leap.

Random Fireballs

  • Arches her head up and screams before firing fireballs in random directions.

Targeted Fireballs

  • It's sometimes easy to tell who is the target of this attack because she just slides across the floor.

  • She fires two projectiles for the 1st phase version.

Charge

  • You should be used to the animation of charges by now. Yoho's charge is nothing different.

Sky Drop

  • Turns toward an aggroed target, screams and flies up into the air, then drops down on the target.

  • Can be avoided by just running. If you don't feel confident, just use a dash move.

Stomp

  • Turns toward an aggroed target and does a single stomp.

Tail Swipe 360

  • Same telegraph as her spawn fires on random areas move, except this actually damages you.

Tail Swipe Back

  • Telegraphed by Yoho bending her head down a bit before bringing her tails up and swiping down.

Tail Swipe Side

  • She will look at the side she will tail swipe just like Calventus.

  • Yoho will then swipe her tail at the side she was looking at from the other side.

Backstep

  • No damage.

2nd Phase Moveset - Inherits 1st Phase Moveset

Upgraded Jump

  • She does 3 jumps now instead on the same target.

Walk

  • She will walk into a straight line like a model on a runway. As she does this, rain will fall down.

3rd Phase Moveset - Inherits Previous Phases Moveset

Upgraded Clones

  • Instead of one clone, she will spawn clones in all cardinal directions, east, west, north, and south.

  • Easy to avoid for ranged by standing 45 degrees to Yoho.

  • Melee can just dash back in after the real Yoho does her spin.

Upgraded Flash

  • Yoho does flash three times in a row during 3rd Phase.

Rain

  • Arches her head up, screams and rain will fall down.

Upgraded Random Fireballs

  • These random fireballs now leave the floor burning.

Upgraded Targeted Fireballs

  • Instead of a pair of projectiles being fired, there are now two pairs of projectiles.

Guardian Raid T5-1: Heavy Nakra

Clips from:

Just right click the YouTube video and click loop to get it to behave like a GIF.

Recommended Team Setup

Bard

Heavy Impairment

Recommended Items

Corrosion Bomb

General Battle Mechanics

  • Heavy Armor Nakrasena introduces some new mechanics.

  • When you first knock the boss, you must throw use destruction on the tail to break the tail armor.

  • You must reach a destruction level of 6 to break the armor. 3 grey bombs work and/or skills as well.

  • If you miss the first opportunity, you will be able to break it the next time you knock the boss.

  • After you have broken the tail armor, you will be able to cut the tail the next knockdown.

  • Unlike above, shurikens will not go through the body or the wall.

  • You must reach a cutting level of 12 to cut the tail.

  • You may use a corrosion bomb and 4 grey shurikens to cut the tail, or 4 blue shurikens.

  • After the tail is cut, the boss will be unable to use certain moves. After it TPs, you will do this all over again.

  • Experienced players would just not cut the tail because the boss would never TP away if it wasn't cut.

  • Periodically, Heavy Nakra will go through powerup charging phases as indicated below in the video.

  • You will see an electric charge starting near his tail going down to the center.

  • Each electric charge that reaches the center powerups the boss up to a max of 3 powerups.

  • Each powerup gives Nakrasena access to more moves.

  • To interupt these powerup phases, you must use your impairment skills on the boss.

  • A successful impairment during this phase does not count as a natural knock for bomb or cut.

  • The boss takes less damage during this charging phase until it finishes or gets back up from the break.

  • If an electric charge has reached his center, he keeps his powerup even after you impair him.

  • This counter carries over to the next powerup phase up to a maximum of 3 powerups.

  • On his 3rd successful electric charge, he will use an AoE outwards.

  • If you know you won't be able to break the 3rd charge in time, just run away.

  • After this, he will no longer do anymore of his powerup phases. This resets after TP.


1st Powerup Moves

Laser

  • There is a charging sound made when the boss will use this move.
  • Do not run in the same direction as other players because you might get other players caught.

Thunder

  • Same telegraph as the powerup move. Easily dodgeable.

Upgraded Side Claw

  • His side claw swipe is upgraded. He gathers an electric charge at his claw then swings it to the side.

2nd Powerup Moves

Bongos

  • Does the drums/bongos before calling down lightning AoE.
  • Unlike T2 Nakra, the safe spot for T4 Nakra is directly behind the bosses' hind legs.

3rd Powerup Moves

Burrow

  • Burrows into the ground and spawns 5 scorpions. The boss doesn't chase you.
  • Recommended method of dealing with the scorpions is running together to the left or right.
  • This gives you a wider view and lets you gather them up so you can AoE them all down.
  • If you don't kill the scorpions in time, they will eventually have an electric AoE surrounding themselves.
  • Getting hit by these will chain paralyze and damage you.

Upgraded Bongos

  • Same telegraph as regular bongos. Only addition is that 8 electric AoE's are spawned.
  • Same safe spot as regular bongos.

General Moveset

Tail Swipe

  • Wider range than T2 Nakrasena. 
  • The initial tail slam in the middle staggers.
  • The swipe afterwards knocks you back. The CC can be avoided by spacing into the swipe or out of it.

Breath

  • The boss may do a pair of breaths, or back to back breaths.
  • Getting hit by these breaths apply a slow stack and burns most of your mana.

Charge

  • The boss can rush forward twice or once.
  • If doing it twice, the boss will raise its claws up after finishing the first charge and then charge again.
  • At the end of the 2nd charge, the boss will jump up and deal damage at landing location.

  • Charge one time.

  • Warlords can cancel the charge by taunting.

Front Tail Slam

  • The frontal tail slam follows the aggroed target. The boss may use it twice in a row.
  • Can be dodged by running to the side if your MS is high enough.
  • If not fast enough, can be dodged at the last second by using your space bar.

Side Tail Slam

  • The boss tilts to the side before bringing down his tail to the other.

Leap

  • Leaps, does a somersault and lands at another location.

Jump

  • Same as T2 Nakrasena.

Claw Crush

  • Same as T2 Nakrasena.

Side Claw Swipe

  • Same as T2 Nakrasena.

Frontal Claw Swipe

  • Same as T2 Nakrasena.

Backpedal

  • Instead of staggering you like T2 Nakrasena, this will knock you down.

Guardian Raid T4-2: Lava Chrome

Clips from:

Just right click the YouTube video and click loop to get it to behave like a GIF.

Recommended Team Setup

Bard | Destroyer

Heavy Impairment

Destruction + Penetration Skills

Recommended Items

Corrosion Bomb | Destruction Bomb | Whirlwind Bomb

General Battle Mechanics

  • Lava Chromanium operates almost the same way as regular Chromanium.

  • You must still break its armor, but both destruction and penetration skills work on its armor.

  • Consider using a corrosion bomb before having your party apply any parts destruction effects.

  • Lava Chromanium does not inherit the "must break armor to start dealing normal damage" mechanic.

  • Every time Lava Chromanium runs, you must break its armor all over again.

  • When the bosses armor is still intact, the boss will periodically call down meteors every ~18 seconds.

  • The meteors knock you down and deal a decent amount of damage.

  • After breaking the bosses armor, the boss will run away after ~3 minutes.

  • To prevent the boss from running away during this time, you must knock the boss.

  • Knocking the boss makes it so the 2nd and 3rd knock become easier.

  • The boss will always run shortly after the 3rd knock. (Unconfirmed, I need more info)

  • The boss takes extra damage when knocked just like regular Chromanium.

  • Because the boss doesn't run away unless the armor breaks, sometimes teams would just bring full damage team comps with few parts destruction skills to DPS the turtle down.

  • The boss will periodically spawn volcanoes.

  • Usually teams only kill one volcano to make sure they have room to DPS as referenced below in the video.

  • Teams may sometimes use a whirlwind bombs or ults to hit both the volcano and boss to not lose DPS.

  • If you opt to not kill at least 1 volcano, make sure to drag the boss out.

  • The volcanoes will spew rain around itself after a time.

  • The volcanoes will explode after a time. Make sure you're not near the volcano when it happens.

  • It has a large explosion radius as you can see in the below video.

  • At around 30% health, the boss will periodically use an AoE flame that spreads outwards.

Moveset

Rain

  • This move is only used when the boss still has its armor. Burrows into the ground and then uses rain.

  • The boss may use this move after a "lunge forward - turn body slam" chain or after a single lunge forward.

  • While the boss may not always burrow after these attacks, the burrow is always preceded by these attacks.

Eruption (2 Types)

  • The 1st type is exactly the same as the move used by regular Chromanium.

  • The second type of eruption is used after a set attack sequence.

  • Gathers air near his legs before jumping up -> Turn Body Slam -> Lunge Forward -> Eruption.

  • If you have a warlord in your party, the warlord can always interrupt the boss by taunting.

  • You can see the boss being taunted in the middle of its attack sequence.

Flame Breath (2 Types)

  • The boss telegraphs this by gathering air and by "sliding" to its aggroed target before using the attack.

  • The attack zone covers a 180 degree cone.

  • This flame breath is also telegraphed by gathering air and "sliding" to its aggroed target.

  • Instead of covering a 180 cone, it covers a straight line.

Body Slam (3 Types)

  • Frontal body slam.

  • Side body slam.

  • Turns and jumps while doing a body slam.

Body Slam (3 Types)

  • Single lunge.

  • Double lunge.
  • Double lunge but switches directions after the 1st lunge.

Cannon

  • Single cannon shot AoE.

Bombardment

  • Multiple small AoEs.

Guardian Raid T3-3: Calventus

Clips from:

Just right click the YouTube video and click loop to get it to behave like a GIF.

Recommended Team Setup

Bard

Optional Items

Panacea | Talisman | Flash Bomb

General Battle Mechanics

  • The bosses dark attacks will apply a stacking debuff. Each debuff reduces armor by 10%.

  • The boss has 2 phases and an enrage phase. When you first encounter the boss, it will be in his 1st Phase.

  • When the boss TP's away, it will start at his 2nd Phase.

  • The 2nd phase is signaled by an AoE rain. There are 2 situations where this can occur.

  • The 1st situation is after the 1st knockdown. After getting back up, it will do it's AoE attack.



  • If you don't knock the boss, the boss will automatically use the AoE rain after ~3-4 minutes.

  • This starts the 2nd phase.

  • During the 2nd phase, the boss will periodically call down 4-5 dark orbs that move toward the boss.

  • The orbs can be staggered and the boss will not absorb them when the orbs are being engaged.

  • Allowing the boss to absorb ~4-5 orbs will enrage the boss. The enraged mode is signal by this attack.

  • Enraged mode will give the boss new and stronger attacks as well as higher attack speed.

  • You will also know when it's enraged when its eyes glow blue and leave an afterimage when moving.

  • The boss will still call down orbs, but these orbs are grayish in color and don't move to the boss.

  • Moving close to these orbs will make the orbs move toward you.

  • They explode on contact and apply the armor debuff.

  • Once enraged, you have to knock the boss to make it go back to its 2nd phase.

  • This is shown below. Once the boss gets back up from its knockdown, the stationary orbs disappear.

  • The soulmaster ult is not the one clearing the orbs.

Moveset (1st Phase)

Tail Swipe

  • The tail swipe can be confusing for newer players.

  • The tail swipe telegraph is easy to notice. The boss will look back at the side it wants to swing its tail to.

  • The tail will be brought down in the middle. The boss will move diagonally to the other side.

  • Then the boss will tail swipe the side it was originally looking at.

  • Easiest way for melee to dodge all future swipe attacks is to stand diagonally to the boss's back.

  • This way, you dodge the initial tail swipe slam down the middle.

  • Then you move towards the middle where the tail landed to dodge the swipe.

Charge

  • The boss will telegraph its charge. There will be an AoE around himself at the end location of its charge.

Double Pound

  • Self-explanatory.

Single Pound

  • Self-explanatory.

Double Pound into Single

  • Self-explanatory.

Combo Pounds

  • When the boss switches aggro, the boss likes turning around and following up with a pound attack.

Sky Attack

  • Jumps up into the air for a bit before landing forward and doing a cone AoE attack.

Sky Drop

  • Flies up into the air before landing back down on a target.

Backstep

  • No damage for 1st phase backstep.


Moveset (2nd Phase - Inherits 1st Phase Moves)

Upgraded Backstep

  • The backstep during the 2nd Phase spawns whirlwinds that move forward.

  • 2 whirlwinds spawn in front before the whirlwinds on the side.

  • You can dodge the whirlwinds as shown below if you're in front when this happens.

Rain

  • Flies slowly up into the air before using its rain attack.

  • Safe spot is in the middle. Before it lands, make sure to dash out of the safe area before it lands.

Shadow Ball

  • Arches its back before launching a shadow ball at a target.

Triple Shadow Ball

  • An orb appears at the front before the boss splits it into three orbs that go outward.

Moveset (Enraged Mode - Inherits Previous Phase Moves)

Enraged Charge

  • When enraged, its charge becomes almost instant and he uses it back to back.

Enraged Shadow Ball

  • Arches up and uses a huge shadow ball attack.
