Guide
Note that the arena is surrounded by an AoE that will instantly kill anyone who steps in it.
- Fearsome Glint: Late telegraphed 90 degree frontal conal AoE. This attack will commonly be used after other mechanics.
- Augmentation of Beacons: Spawns four untargetable Radiant Beacon adds on the outside, each using a telegraphed line AoE forming a plus-shaped formation. The beacons and AoE telegraphs will begin rotating. Several seconds later, a timer will appear across each AoE telegraph, and once it expires, the AoE will resolve. Note that the AoEs will rotate 135 degrees between the timer appearing and them going off.
- Shockwave: Four hits of physical party-wide damage.
- Augmentation of Roundels: Spawns multiple Light Sprites, one in the center, and the others on random cardinals and intercardinals.
- Augmentation of Stones: Spawns multiple Ochre Stones, one in the center, and eight on each cardinal and intercardinal. Take note of which stones contain a Light Sprite, as the sprites will become hidden.
- Augmentation of Beacons is then used again, but the boss will combine it with Falling Rock, placing three sets of circle AoE telegraphs at random players' locations. When the timer appears above the line AoEs, the boss will also cast Flatten, causing stones containing a sprite to explode as late telegraphed circle AoEs.
- Augmentation of Beacons is used again but will also spawn two Radiant Roundels. In addition to the beacon line AoEs, the roundels will begin rotating and have a point-blank circle AoE telegraph under them. Each type of AoE will receive a timer and detonate in sequence, which will repeat once (e.g. lines > circles > lines > circles). Players will need to pay attention to the order they resolve and dodge accordingly.
