Key Mechanics:

Sacrament vs Radiant Sacrament:

  • Sacrament: Beams fire front, back, and both sides - stand in diagonal corners
  • Radiant Sacrament: Donut AoE - stand inside boss hitbox

Incinerating Heat:

  • Stack with at least 4 players on the marked healer
  • Players with Blazing Scourge (red markers) move away first

Gravitational Anomaly:

  • Puddles spawn and grow over time
  • Position carefully to maintain safe zones for movement

Divine Judgment:

  • Use Tank LB3 at 3-5 seconds on the cast timer
  • This is required to survive the ultimate attack

Strategy:

  • Tanks swap after Punishing Heat due to vulnerability debuff
  • Quickly identify Sacrament type and move to correct safe zone
  • Stack for Incinerating Heat, spread for Blazing Scourge
  • Manage Gravitational Anomaly puddles to preserve space
  • Save Tank LB3 for Divine Judgment

Notes: This is the finale of the Alexander story and the most complex normal mode encounter in the series. Success requires recognizing mechanics quickly and positioning correctly. The fight has been described as “a glorified game of ping pong” due to the constant movement required.
