General Mechanics of The Aitiascope

  • Livia
    • Livia will shoot conal AoEs from her appendages that are glowing.
    • Dodge Aglaea Shot, and be wary of the AoE coming back.
    • Dodge both of these mechanics in tandem.
  • Rhitahtyn
    • Rhitahtyn will summon walls obstructing the outside and charge down the middle path. Avoid this by moving into the faster crevices that appear.
    • Move to the areas that Tartarean Spark does not go to.
    • The charge mechanic will be accompanied with Tartarean Spark on one side, so move to the crevice on the side that is not targeted.
  • Amon
    • Amon will cast a lot of AoEs. Thundaga are a set of conals, Left and Right Firaga cleave Amon's left and right, and Eurption spawns AoEs.
    • Line of sight Curtain Call using the ice block that spawns towards the end.

Quick Tips for Tanks

  • Go at the pace of what your party can handle.
  • Livia's Aglaea Bite, Rhitahtyn's Anvil of Tartarus, and Amon's Dark Forte are the tank busters to watch out for.
  • Tanks mobs closer to the edge of the paths, as there are point-blank and conal AoEs that may cover the path.
  • Large pulls between the first and second boss are a breeze due to the NPCs giving you buffs and dealing heavy damage to mobs.
4.

Quick Tips for Healers

  • Livia's Frustration, Rhitahtyn's Tartarean Impact, and Amon's Entr'acte are the raidwides to watch out for. Amon's in particular does a lot of damage.
5.

Quick Tips for DPS

  • Use AoE during trash pulls!
  • If you haven't already been doing so, start helping your healer mitigate raidwides with abilities like Addle Icon Addle and Feint Icon Feint.
  • The final boss has no positional indicator.
  • The ice block has collision, so players cannot dash through it. Save Sprint to get behind the ice block for Curtain Call.
