Lost Ark – Achates Guardian Raid Boss Fight Mechanics Guide:

Let’s talk about mechanics for Achates:

1.  Stone Status:

You will face this mechanic after Achate’s health decreases more than 20%. This is the time when he is invincible and your attacks won’t work on him and he will change its location to the center of the arena. The best way to deal with Achates in this form is to stay as close to the center as much as possible.

After getting into the center Achates will spawn a stone statue and it’s random in between 1,2 and 4. You need to defeat these statues to get some stones that will be helpful in the guardian fight.

You will get yellow, blue, or red stones from defeating the statues. After getting stones look at the Achates shield color and that will be matching the color of the stone. As you can guess, destroy the same color shield with the same color stone. One thing to remember is that these stones will disappear quickly so move fast.

If you were quick enough to destroy its shield, Achates will show his wings and that’s a good sign. One wrong stone can be very harmful to you. As he shows his wings, get ready to destroy the wings with items and skills.

2.  Counter Attack:

You can use a counterattack when Achates is trying to do Scorch Debuff. With this method, you can tackle the Achates better. You can say it’s one of the best ways. Just keep an eye on Achates. When you see him glowing in blue color, that’s the point where you will have the chance to do this. If you do this correctly at a good time, then you have a chance to stun Achates and then you will have a good opportunity to deal a lot of damage.

3.  Annihilation:

With this attack, Achates draw players towards him and gather the energy. But you can avoid this easily before you finish it. But if you let him complete this energy process then the next attack could be dangerous for you. But Achates only activate this Annihilation in enraged mode.

4.  Power Up:

You can also give him huge damage during his energy gathering process in his wings. Because gathering the energy is quite exposed.

5.  Roar:

In enraged mode, Achates will start a roaring. Achates start roaring so he can Attack Power debuff. To undo this you need to attack the guardian a lot with all the combat skills.

This is the list for some general attacks.

1.  Flying Charge:

In the Flying Charge attack, Achate will suddenly jump towards you with full force crashing everything coming in its path. So you must be careful about it and he can use the same attack twice on you so you must remain pre

You can avoid this by going perpendicular.

2.  Light Explosions:

This is the wave of many attacks from the guardian. You can easily dodge it.

3.  Earthquake:

In this attack, the guardian will shake the ground so hard and there will be some rifts. You need to avoid those rifts or you will get a lot of damage.

4.  Wing Attack:

In this attack, the guardian will attack with his wings and blow them. After doing this attack he will come back to the ground.
