    Final Boss strats? (spoilers?)

    There are 2 phases.

    So far:

    Do not run onto stairs with hate -ever-

    Phase 1:

    he has a circle AOE called iron chariot

    He ports, then shoots a beam for 2-3k dmg, then 4 pillars appear right after in front of him (they do dmg as well)
    As tank watch for him to re-appear on minimap and run towards the direction you want him to turn (ex. away from mages). Then run behind him. He will turn a bit towards you, then you have a few sec to loop behind him

    He has a 5x-attack that does some pretty nice damage

    At 35-40% he shoots up fire to the sky summoning 2 meteors
    Tank stays on ground. DO NOT GO ON STAIRS WITH HATE. if you go on stairs with hate he ports + 1 shots.

    blms should run up the stairs to take out the meteors

    Phase 2:
    Same basic attacks but more hardcore

    He has an aoe that hits ppl at a distance for hp and mp

    There is a sweet spot to stand between his normal aoe and distance-aoe where you wont get hit

    at around 50% he uses his normal AOE twice and then does a ws attack. so mages should back off and keep tank healed

    if you have hate stay off stairs or he will port and 1-shot you
    meteors fall significantly more often and faster (faster needs confirmation). Mages kill meteors (or brd/arc)

    at 5% he disappears
    golems pop and meteors start falling with higher hp than normal.

    Best thing to do here seems to be 2 blms on one platform, 1blm 1brd on other platform
    Meeles run to top to prevent him from regening untill he ports back down

    Then you run back down and zerg him to death (after megaflare does 2000ish damage)

    edit: post anything more you can think of or let me know what i got wrong and i'll update it

    "Nael van Darnus's Fierce Ravensbeak hits you from the rear for 9999 points of damage."

    He's got that in addition to the Lunar meteors.


    Yes spoilers.

    Going up the stairs seems to trigger Fierce Ravensbeak and Meteors, we went in trying to tank him up top and meteors instantly appeared and he used Fierce Ravensbeak right away (last fight he only used it below 50%ish)

    Here's the strategy: Go do skirmish while Nael's battle is congested. ^^

    So far I've gathered it's a 2 stage fight.
    The first stage is real easy.
    Do not touch the stairs at all, that triggers his insta-kill move.
    When meteors appear do AoE SS and recover afterwards.
    Otherwise it's simple

    Stage 2
    He seems to have an AoE where if you're too far from him it does HP and MP damage. You need to run close to avoid this.

    That's all I have so far.
