Walkthrough

Boss Mechanics

Guardian Angel cycles between 5 modes in this order: Shield>Reflect>Berserk>Recovery>Magic. There will be an announcement as to which stance guardian angel is entering, and will be marked by an icon ontop of guardian angel's head. Stances each last for a set duration (15 sec, 5 sec, 30 sec, 10 sec, respectively), during the time he is not in any active phase, he can randomly cast these skills: Rain of Crystal, Critical Slash, Stun Attack, Lvl 2 Soul Vulcan Strike, Lvl 1 Venom Swamp, Deadly Curse, Land Protector. During the entire fight, flames will spawn much like the flames in fogh, the difference is: these flames will 1 shot anyone they touch. The flames however will never touch a specific point in the map, so stacking there is a good idea, assuming you have land protector. Additionally, the angel has an aura that stacks burning on each player similar to the fortessa volcano fight.

Shield Stance:

Shield mode is the first stance Guardian Angel will enter. During this mode, it will cast several defensive skills reducing the effectiveness of physical damage (melee and range), while making magic damage stronger against it.

Skills:

Defender, Auto Guard, Piety and Stone Skin, Shield Chain, Shield Press, Shield Shooting, Shield Boomerang, Cross Rain

Reflect Stance:

The second stance of Guardian Angel. During this mode, it will activate max pain and punish all players should it be attacked.

Skills:

Quagmire, Wide Stone, Wide Freeze, Wide Sleep, Nifflheim Requiem, Land Protector, Conflagration, Manhole

Berserk Stance:

RES and MRES of the boss will be halved during this phase. He will however attempt to wipe the entire party at the start of it with his wide grasp>lock on laser combo, and he will also receive buffs to his damage and aspd.

Skills:

Wide Death Grasp, Wide Lockon Laser, NPC Randombreak, Bodyrelocation (on random target), Masquerade Ignorance

Recovery Stance:

His Res and MRes will again be halved during this stance. However, he will also cast a special version of recovery conversion, turning all damage he receives into healing.

Skills:

NPC_ALL_HEAL

Magic Stance:

The final stance of Guardian Angel. During this phase, guardian angel will begin casting several elemental master skills, along with skills that allow him to evade magic attacks at the cost of his physical defense. He will also cast ganbantein during this mode, so make sure YOUR land protector is up!

Skills:

Anti-Magic, Prestige Lightning Land, Diamond Storm, Terra Drive, Ganbantein, Land Protector

Hard Mode

In addition to the mechanics above, Guardian Angel will gain a new mechanic signified when he yells "By fire be purged!!!". Before he does so, an area on the map will be marked as a safe zone. The entire party will have a few second to make it to the designated area otherwise they will be wiped.
