As part of our new player guide, we’ll walk you through the strategies you can use to compete against bosses in order to best prepare yourself.

Zott’s tower

Anabella

Here is the first boss of the expansion’s first dungeon End converter.

Anabella starts with the launch of a Manusya bacteriawho will hit the tank with aggro, as well as the people around it. This spell also inflicts damage over time to those struck.

One of his main attacks is Mega Ice Cream Manusya. She will start summoning him, and once she is halfway up her summoning bar, an area will be marked around her on the ground. You will find that the circle is not full, so you can slip into the “holes” to bypass it. Don’t pull yourself to position yourself but don’t go too far for any of this because …

Immediately afterwards, Anabella will continue with an area spell, the Mega fire Manusyawho will ask you to go body to body so as not to be hit and …

Go away because Anabella will do one Mega Lightning Manusyawhich consists of 4 small melee areas that should be avoided by removing.

Anabella will then proceed by a Mega Manusya bacteria, a poison spell that targets half of the room. So play it safe to avoid this.

This is where it gets tricky. Look at Annabelle’s Spell Summoning Bar for the Mega Manusya bacteria. There you will see an incantation of a named spell Magic manipulation: Mega Fire. Magic manipulation is a ball that Anabella drops onto the field and that advances for a few seconds before performing the relevant spell. So for them Magic manipulation: Mega Fire, you will need to get closer to the bullet to avoid the damage as the safe zone is in the center of the spell as shown above. The key to fighting, therefore, will be seeing what spell is associated with the sphere and preparing accordingly.

Anabelle is also called an attack. use Dhrupad that deals damage to everyone, so ideally you should use an area healing spell.

Eventually, Anabella eventually speeds up and sends 2 balls off Magic manipulation one at a time while continuing to cast spells. Be vigilant to win this fight.

Seeds

Samanta is the second boss of the dungeon.

Samanta will start making them Isitva Siddhi, a “tank buster” as it is called. This skill targets the group’s tank, dealing damage to people nearby. So remember not to glue your favorite can.

It follows right away Prapti Siddhi, a straight line attack carried out in the four cardinal directions. So be careful walking on the side to avoid this.

His attack Berserk Mayusva will spawn 5 balls on the field. These will then explode. They cover almost the entire area, but if you look closely you will find that there is always a corner where these don’t touch you because they are a bit far away. Go there just to be on the safe side.

Prakamya Siddhi is an area attack around her that she will chain right behind her Berserk. It’s a very simple attack that you can avoid. However, if you are hit by the bullets, you will lose control of your character and will take damage from this attack. Your healer must respond in this case.

Stop man is a spell that immobilizes a team member. Samanta always chains it to you Prapti Siddhi Then another team is under the influence of Stop man, etc … So the 4 players will take damage. It is therefore necessary to quickly heal the person who will be forced into this attack while avoiding receiving damage other than what will be required if your character is stopped.

Samanta then continues to participate Confusion Manusya. This spell will spawn 5 samantas and you need to find the right one and attack it. In order not to make a mistake, there are 2 solutions. The maid is mostly the one who doesn’t move / dance. And the icon to the left of his health bar is also different from the others. Once found and typed, the clones disappear, making way for bullets that explode. You are safe in the area where you found the “real” Samanta. Keep going until you finish the fight.

The Magus Sisters

Here is the final battle of this dungeon. This fight can turn out to be quite a … hodgepodge, as many things will follow each other, but in the end you will see that you have already faced these spells on the previous two bosses …

Maria starts with an area light attack, Samsara

She will then call Samanta and Anabella, her two sisters, and the fight can then really begin. The 3 sisters will start casting a spell at the same time. In order to know what to expect, you need to pay attention to what they are saying.

May lightning cut you to pieces

Here you need to avoid a lot of lightning areas that pop up. To complicate matters a bit, one of you will see a staging area appear on it. They then need to come together to mitigate the damage while avoiding lightning.

May the flames consume you!

Here you need to go in the middle of an area attack to avoid damage. Inline zone attacks follow immediately afterwards. Then another zone attack where you have to meet in the middle, except that you each have a bomb with you that explodes after a few seconds. So let the zone attack pass and step aside at a time to explode in your corner without touching your allies.

May the cold freeze your bones!

Here you need to both avoid an explosion by going as far as you can to take less damage and area attacks online,

Your goal during this fight is to focus on one of the sisters (probably Maria because she is the first to attack you) in order to kill her and thus prevent her from making any of the 3 invocations described below. You will use certain spells that you have seen in your previous fights, but they are very easy to eliminate once one of them is down.
