Bough of Attis (Hand Slam)

Watch the boss’s arm position:

  1. Arms pulled back: Boss will slam the front half, creating line AoEs in indicated directions - move behind
  2. Arms forward: Boss will slam the back half - move to the front
  3. Watch for directional indicators showing where line AoEs will travel

Immortal’s Obol (Arena Transformation)

The arena changes dramatically:

  1. Proximity marker appears - move away from center
  2. Arena transforms into three raised platforms with connecting bridges
  3. Falling off means death - stay on platforms and bridges
  4. Fight continues on this new layout until arena restores

Forbidden Fruit (Add Patterns)

Adds spawn on platforms with specific attacks:

  • Immature Ios (Rams): Perform circle AoEs centered on their platform - move away
  • Immature Stymphalides (Birds): Perform line AoEs in their facing direction - avoid their front

Blades of Attis (Exaflares)

Moving AoE pattern:

  1. AoEs spawn and begin moving across the arena
  2. Dodge the initial hits then move into where they started
  3. Continue repositioning as the exaflares travel across platforms

Tips

  • Position for Bough of Attis based on arm animation
  • During platform phase, stay aware of edges - falling is death
  • Track add types and their attack patterns
  • For exaflares, move into the origin points after first explosions
  • Healers prepare for Spark of Life’s heavy damage plus bleed
  • Use bridges carefully during platform phase mechanics
