Alberhastic Guardian Raid Guide

In total, this Guardian has 5 different shapes. The first time you encounter him, he is on his “normal” shape. The other 4 include 2 melee claw shapes and 2 shapes where he is able to fly. The shapes dictate which 1 shot mechanic the boss can perform during specific situations.

He transforms into one of the 4 other shapes a few seconds after the initial encounter. He can do it again later in battle or after he escapes to a different area.

The Guardian frequently spawns Energy Orbs at random nearby locations. These orbs are highlighted on the minimap as yellow dots. Focus down the orbs as soon as possible, otherwise the Guardian consumes it and gets buffed for the rest of the battle. If Alberhastic consumes too many of the orbs, he will start to one shot players even with his normal attacks.

If you manage to destroy the orb before it gets consumed, it will leave behind a blue orb. Picking it up before it disappears grants the player a Damage Reduction buff with a decent duration. With this buff the next hit you take will deal almost no damage. If you failed to prevent a one shot mechanic, this blue buff can help you survive it.

Once you destroy an Energy Orb, the entire party gets a stacking debuff. Upon obtaining the 3rd stack, everyone will burn for 20 seconds. This Burn deals decent damage, use Panacea to remove it as soon as you get the 3rd debuff stack.

This unique Stagger Check mechanic is different from the one you have encountered so far. You have to pay close attention to when the Stagger Check begins. During the fight the Guardian will suddenly glow blue, which is the indicator for the start. Your goal is to focus on Stagger damage skills and Combat Items to incapacitate Alberhastic before he casts another one shot mechanic. If you succeed the Stagger Check, the follow-up one shot mechanic will have a safe spot.

While you are focusing on the Stagger Check the Guardian continues using his normal attacks. This might be difficult to manage for some groups, in which case you should use a Taunting Scarecrow. Once the Guardian focuses his attention towards the Taunting Scarecrow, use that opportunity to deal as much Stagger damage as possible.

Alberhastic summons 4 blue tornadoes around him. These tornadoes are stationary and lift the player up into the air on contact. When this happens the player receives a debuff that prevents being lifted by the tornadoes for few seconds. Make sure to not get hit by the tornadoes too early.

A few seconds after spawning the tornadoes, the Guardian flies up and smashes back to the ground. This attack deals high damage to everyone in range that isn't airborne. To prevent the one shot, jump into one of the blue tornadoes as soon as the Guardian flies up.

If you got the debuff by mistake, use Panacea to remove it before you walk into a blue tornado.

This attack is a Stagger Check only used while he is in a shape that has a spear as the weapon. The Guardian pierces a player and slowly lifts him up into the air. Meanwhile, the party members need to use Stagger damage skills and Combat Items to liberate the pierced player. If it takes too long, Alberhastic starts to smash the player multiple times to the ground which can kill squishy classes easily.

This attack is a Stagger check used while the Guardian is in his winged shape. The Guardian grabs a player with his claws and hovers in the air. In specific intervals, the Guardian will smash the player towards the ground and lift them back in the air. Meanwhile, the party members need to use Stagger damage skills and Combat Items to liberate the grabbed player. It doesn't require much Stagger damage but the tricky part is Alberhastic can only take damage for a brief moment while he is smashing the grabbed player to the ground. So you have to time your skills and Combat Items well.

If you take too long Alberhastic lifts up one final time before he crashes back to the ground, dealing massive damage to everyone in a big AoE.

Alberhastic summons a big fire circle below him, which erupts after a second to deal damage and knock up the players on it. There are 2 variants of this attack, one of it has a small safe zone in the center and the other one doesn't. If the Guardian has a spear in his hand, then he usually summons the circle with the safe spot.

The Guardian locks onto one player and shoots either 1 or 3 consecutive lasers towards them. On hit, the lasers deal massive damage and cause a knock up. If you are the targeted player, avoid running into your teammates.

Alberhastic summons a circle around him which lasts for a few seconds and follows the Guardian. You have to stay in the circle, otherwise you will be silenced and won't be able to use any skills.

An attack only used while the Guardian is in his winged shape. Up to 2 tornadoes spawn and start to chase a player(s). On contact, they deal continuous damage to the player. If you are getting chased by a tornado, avoid running into other teammates.
