Argos Phase 3 Introduction

Argos Phase 3 is a TIER 3 Abyss Raid. The recommended Item Level to enter this Raid is 1400. This dungeon drops Tier 3 Accessories, Ability Stones, Engraving Books, Cards and materials to craft the sets Harsh Oath Launcher and Preordained Diligence Launcher. After clearing the dungeon, you can pay gold to get additional loot. The recommended Combat Items are HP Potion, Panacea, Sacred Charm and Dark Grenade.

Argos phase 3 is easier than Phase 2. The Weather System shifts the focus more towards map awareness and survival than DPS. This phase has 3 different team wipe and 2 instant death mechanics. Surviving these requires teamwork.

Disclaimer: In this guide, we will only focus on the important core mechanics and attacks of the Guardian which weren't explained in the previous phase. Basic attacks of the Guardian, which are easy to predict or deal low damage, won't be explained in detail.

Starting from this point, it is important to make sure that everyone in the raid group is aware of the boss and coop mechanics. Additionally, item level is not as significant as having good Engravings and Combat Stat distribution as these provide the most damage increase which shorten the duration of the battle. A shorter battle leads to less damage taken and less consumable used.

This guide assumes that you are familiar with the recommended Raid Build for your class.

Special Interactions & Patterns

Weather System

Weather System

Argos changes the weather frequently by teleporting and slowly circling in the center. Depending on the weather, the seeds spawning on the battle area change their effects. Seeds can be harmful or useful depending on the current weather.

Argos usually spawns more harmful seeds than useful ones. It is recommended to scout out a safe area with less harmful seeds and move the boss towards that location. Avoid standing close to the center, because it increases the chance of triggering surrounding harmful seeds. To trigger a seed, you have to stay close to it for a few seconds. Make sure to ping before you trigger any of the positive/good seeds since the positive effect applies to nearby players.

The weather can be either Day(clear), Dawn(rainy) or Night(foggy). There are red, green and blue seeds.

Day
Dawn
Night

Weather Condition: During the dawn, the rain deals continuous damage to everyone.
Useful Seed: Upon trigger, the blue seed applies a shielding buff to nearby players, which negates the rain damage for a few seconds.
Harmful Seed: The green seed imprisons nearby players once triggered. The imprisonment lifts after a few seconds or if teammates attack the imprisoned player.

General Patterns

Multi Charge

Multi Charge

Argos disappears and does multiple charge attacks in the center, which are indicated by a red telegraph. He finishes this combo with a blink attack towards a random player. Avoid staying close to the center and group up or relocate together to a spot with the least amount of harmful seeds. By doing so, you can easily move the boss to a safer location.
