Corrosion Bomb + Blue Shuriken

General Battle Mechanics

• There is a slight learning curve to this fight as it can be a bit hectic for new players.

• To make this fight easier, people generally try cutting the tail off during the fight.

• You can only cut the tail when you impair the boss as referenced below in the video.

• It takes 16 cutting levels to cut the bosses tail. Grey shurikens have 2 cutting power.

• Blue shurikens have 3 cutting power. Corrosion bomb adds 1 power to all applied effects.

• So the 1st option is to use 8 grey shurikens over 2 knocks

• The 2nd option is to use 1 corrosion bomb and 4 blue shurikens to just cut the tail in 1 knock.

• Various skills from classes like Berserker and Battlemaster have cut in their skills.

Moveset

Claw Swipe (Enhanceable)

• Slams its claws down in quick succession before swiping forward.

• Attack will deal more damage when it goes through charging phase.

Double Jump (Enhanceable)

• Raises its claws upward before jumping up. The boss can do this twice in a row. It may also only do it once.

• When used after its charging phase, it will paralyze players if you get near its landing location.

Charge (Unavailable When Tail is Cut)

• Knocks back players when hit. Deals damage at landing location.

Burrow (Unavailable When Tail is Cut)

• This attack takes some time to get used to. The boss will burrow and target one player.

• There's a window in which the boss will reappear that you have to dodge to avoid the attack.

Bongos (Unavailable When Tail is Cut)

• The boss will slam the ground in rapid succession mimicing the sound of bongos.

• The boss will then ground its tail and mini AoE's appear. It is best to just run away from the boss.

Laser (Unavailable When Tail is Cut)

• This attack is telegraphed by its tail charging up and turning its head to the aggroed player.

• Then it will shoot its laser twice and paralyze anyone hit.

• You can avoid this attack by just running from side to side. No space required.

• Make sure to avoid running into your teammates.

Lightning Strike (Unavailable When Tail is Cut)

• Uses the same animation when it's charging up through its charging phase.

• AoE will target one player. Make sure not to run into your teammates.

General Battle Mechanics

• Some teams like to use a scarecrow at the beginning of the fight to draw aggro from the boss.

• They use this time to just dump all their DPS on the boss.

• Since the boss TPs 2 more times, a scarecrow is used at the 1st encounter and the other 2 TP encounters.

• The boss enter its 2nd phase after its 1st TP.

• Usually a scarecrow is saved for when the boss enrages, which will be discussed below.

• The boss will summon 2 sandstorms shortly after the fight begins.

• These sandstorms aggro onto players and moves towards them very slowly.

• Standing in the sandstorms will apply a MS debuff on you. Getting 3 of these stacks will petrify you.

• After the sandstorms are created, the boss will periodically do an earthquake move as indicated below.

• Unless you have 100% Earthquake Immunity, you will be shocked for 10 seconds.

• After a short while of doing the earthquake, the boss will do a one shot move.

• You can time the one shot move by counting the number of moves the boss does.

• The boss usually does it after 3 moves used. 

• If the move animation takes a long time, ex. rolls, it will do it after 2 moves used. 

• To avoid the one shot, you must stand in the sandstorm to get 3 stacks and get petrified to become invincible.

• Players can prep 1 or 2 stacks of the debuff to make sure you get 3 stacks in time.

• The invincibility effect still lasts for a bit after wearing off.

• In RU, the one shot mechanic, doesn't one shot anymore.

• Getting petrified gives you a 30 second debuff where you can't get petrified again. In RU, it's if you get hit.

• If you can't get petrified again before the boss uses its one shot ability, you should run away.

• Either go into the next area or make sure to run until the boss is on the edge of your minimap.

• In RU, the one shot mechanic, doesn't one shot anymore.

• If the boss kills someone during the one shot move, the boss will enrage.

• The boss's attack speed and damage will increase.

• The sandstorms disappear and he will not do the earthquake/one shot mechanic anymore.

• Instead, an AoE will appear around himself and damage all surrounding players.

• To get the boss back to its normal state, you must knock the boss.

• Once the boss gets back up, it will lose its AoE and go back to doing normal things.

Moveset

Bomb (2nd Phase)

• During the 2nd phase, the boss will start using this move periodically.

• It has the same telegraph as the sandstorm summon.

• A circle will spawn on the ground. Unless someone stands on top of the circle, bombs will continually spawn.

• Typically, the bard or a ranged class stands on the circle.

• When you get near the bombs, they explode.

General Battle Mechanics

• Frostgaia's attacks apply a MS debuff. Getting 10 stacks freezes you.

• When Frostgaia tries to do its 1st ever evolution, regardless of whether or not you break it, it will evolve.

• The evolve is signaled by this scream and this means the boss has done its 1st evolution.

• When the boss TPs away after its 2nd evolution, it will always start at its 1st evolution afterwards.

• If the DPS of your team is high enough, Frostgaia will evolve to 1st evolution without doing the mechanic.

• Example of evolution sequence:

->1st Evolve Attempt or High DPS->Scream Signals 1st Evolution->Evolve Attempts->2nd Evolution->TP Away

->Find Boss Again->Starts at 1st Evolution->Evolve Attempts->2nd Evolution->TP Away

• When first encountering the boss, the boss will land and deal damage at landing location and fly back up.

• The second landing deals no damage.

• You still have to break the boss during the evolve phase much like Hellgaia's evolution attempts.

• When the boss reaches its 2nd evolution, it will not attempt to evolve anymore.

• Instead you must impair the boss so that it runs away and restarts at its 1st evolution elsewhere.

• After the boss gets back up, it will always do 2 Sky Attacks. It will then scream and TP away.

Moveset (New Moves Added During Evolves)

Sky Attack (1st Evolution)

• Jumps up into the air and flies back down. Annoying to dodge because of fast attack speed.

Frontal Swipe

• Single wing frontal swipe. Can do it multiple times in succession.

Double Frontal Swipe (1st Evolution)

• Frontal swipe with right then left wing. Still has access to single swipe.

Triple Frontal Swipe (2nd Evolution)

• Frontal swipe with right, left, and then both wings in the front. Still has access to previous frontal swipes.

Charge

• Telegraph for this charge is straightforward.

Upgraded Charge (2nd Evolution)

• Flies up a bit before charging forward. Replaces the normal charge.

Up (2nd Evolution)

• Flies up and lands at a location after a short while. Don't get near the AoE until after the boss lands.

Beak Lift

• Self-explanatory.

Double Peck

• Self-explanatory.

Side Wing Swipe

• Self-explanatory.

Tail Swipe

• Self-explanatory. Safe spot is right on Frostgaia's butt. Can do it multiple times in succession or just once.

60% Fire Resistance | 100% Burn Immunity | 30% Wild Beast Damage

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.

• Does no damage.

• 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.

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.

Walk

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

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.

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.

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

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.

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.

Side Claw Swipe

• Same as T2 Nakrasena.

Frontal Claw Swipe

• Same as T2 Nakrasena.

Vital Strike (+10% Neutralization Effect) (On Warlords/Destroyers)

 

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.

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.

General Battle Mechanics

• Levanos has the same armor mechanics as Chromanium.

• Destruction and penetration both work on Levanos, but penetration skills are less consistent.

• Unless you're using penetration skills at the right angle, it won't affect the boss at all.

• The boss's armor break animation is shown below.

• The boss will periodically try to regenerate it's armor. The animation is below.
• You must impair the boss during this time or else you will have to break its armor all over again.

• At around 30% health, the boss will turn red and start Phase 2. 
• The boss also regains its armor back so you must break its armor again.

• This is one of the bosses normal moves, but he is likely to use it after a core kill.

• The boss will periodically summon up to 4 cores. You must kill these cores ASAP.
• The core will usually teleport to another place after spawn.
• Prenerf KR, the boss would usually TP during the 3rd core because teams could not kill the core in time.
• I doubt that will be the case in RU. If the boss does TP away, you have to break its armor again.
• You may want to use molotovs on these cores but again, I doubt that will be needed on RU.

• The cores have mini versions of the bosses attacks, which are shown below.

Moveset (1st Phase - Above 30% Health)

Whirlwind (2 Types)

• This is a move that is the most dangerous for unprepared players.
• The telegraph is distinct and easily recognizable. 
• The boss will raise its arms in the air and bring them down quickly before doing the attack.

• This second type of whirlwind has almost the same telegraph, but the boss does it a lot slower.
• The boss will then use whirlwind while moving forward.

Bombardment

• The sound the boss makes for this move is very distinct. The boss will raise its arm up high for this attack.
• The AoE's appear around an aggroed target.

Ghost Jets

• Hard to describe the telegraph for this move but you will get used to it after a while.
• It's also telegraphed by 4 blue spawn points that center at the boss.

Rain

• The animation for this move is fairly slow. You will have ample time to notice the move.
• After a short while, AoE's will come falling down.

Smash (2 Types)

• Raises its arms before bringing them down to attack the front.

• Almost the same telegraph as the previous move, but will do a huge frontal AoE cone as well.

Backstep (3 Types)

• The boss has 3 possible followup attacks to its backstep ability.
• The first possible is bombardment.

• The second possible follow up is the smash frontal AoE cone.

• The third possible is a moving whirlwind.

Moveset (2nd Phase - Below 30% Health)

Cage

• RU will most likely have the nerfed cage move where the cage radius is large and very forgiving.
• Players trying to exit the cage will be pulled back inside and take damage.
• The cage will wear off after a while.

Upgraded Ghost Jets

• During the 2nd phase, the ghost jets spawn away from the center of the boss.

Snare

• The boss can place down snares during the 2nd phase.

• The boss will run away automatically when it reaches 70% and 40% health.

• The boss enters its 3rd phase at 30% health.

• The boss's 2nd phase is barely any different from its 1st phase, so I will not be differentiating them.

• The boss will periodically turn red during each phase as shown below.

• You can accelerate this phase by knocking the boss.
  
• If the boss is not red when you knocked him initially, he will turn red after getting back up.

• If you've knocked the boss when it has already turned red, it's recovery attack will be a jumpback.
• The tail is able to be cut during this time, but it is not worth it because it just accelerates him to Phase 3.

• The boss will periodically try grabbing players. The telegraph is easy to notice and the arcana below dodges it.

• If players get CC'd, they are priority targets for getting grabbed.

• When someone gets grabbed, make sure to use as much impairment skills to break him free ASAP.

• During the boss's 3rd phase, any player he CC's, will be a priority target for his Charge attack.
  
• This CC includes his tail swipe and his freeze bomb.

• The boss has a high tendency to telegraph who his next aggroed target is and who he will use his next attack on. When he has chosen a target to attack, he will "slide" to face him and use a skill as shown below.

Tail Swipe

• One of Beru's most annoying moves especially for melee is his tail swipe attack because it stuns you.

• It's telegraphed by him swaying his tail in the direction of the swipe before attacking.

Dive

• When running away, it's ideal to run away together in a group so that there is less downtime for attacks.

• If a teammate is lagging behind, that person should just run in another direction because the boss might pop out beneath them.

• Safest option is running in 4 directions away from each other.

360

Breath

Charge

Lunge
