Phase 1 - Berthe
{{

Phase Gimmick

Berthe cans stands upright and sends out a blue, purple or red Prohibiting Howl. This does not deal damage, but for 30 seconds after, the skill tier that matches the color of the howl will cause Berthe to counter with his signature Howl attack.

Upon reaching 150x HP and any time afterwards, Berthe will perform the Prohibiting Howl, targeting two skill tiers at once. The previous howl's effect will be cleared. This can be avoided by Freezing or Petrifying the Berthe before reaching the HP threshold.

Berthe
The traitorous leader of the White-Ghost Army, empowered by Aegirp's soul, he is much more powerful than he was in the past.
Boss Attacks Tips
  • Prohibiting Howl: Berthe stands upright and sends out a blue, purple or red howl. This does not deal damage, but for 30 seconds after, the skill tier that matches the color of the howl will cause Berthe to counter with his signature Howl attack.
    • Upon reaching 150x HP and any time afterwards, Berthe will perform the Prohibiting Howl, targeting two skill tiers at once. The previous howl's effect will be cleared.
  • Flexibility, Hyper Active and Master skills are never targeted and can freely be used throughout the fight.
  • Bravery Prohibiting Howl does not happen until 150x HP is reached.
  • This can be avoided by Freezing or Petrifying the Berthe before reaching the HP threshold.
  • Howl: If the currently designated skill tier(s) are used by any player, Berthe will become immune and send out a howl across the battlefield, instantly killing everyone. Anyone that survives the howl through revival effects will be inflicted with Silence.
  • Claw Strikes: Berthe slashes at a player up to two times with his claws.
  • Ice Carve: After performing Claw Strikes, Berthe will sometimes smash the ground to send out a wave of ice in front, launching players away.
  • Breath: Berthe charges up an icy breath, before firing it at players ahead while slowly arcing the beam upward. Players hit by the beam will be frozen in place, but can rapidly tap left and right to break free. Berthe will take reduced damage during this attack.
  • Ice Pillars: Berthe smashes the ground and makes several ice pillars appears from the ground, inflicting Frostbite on hit. The area an ice pillar will spawn is telegraphed by a dark blue magic circle, and it does not remain on the field afterward.

Trivia
{{
  • Following Savage White-Ghost's Castle's loading screen, the characters featured on the loading screen are the next three characters: Rage Hearts, Code: Esencia, and Comet Crusader.
  • The dungeon's name calls back to the Altar of Dedication back in Feita, where Berthe was first fought. Additionally, just like back then, a portal is prominently visible in the background during the fight.
  • Many of Berthe's attacks in the first phase of the dungeon are the same as those used during his original fight, adjusted to fit his current more agile quadrupedal form. These include Pounce, Ice Beam, Ice Carve and his defining skill, Howl.
  • The remixed version of Berthe's original boss theme is the first time an original boss theme was created for the game since CODE-Maya in Elysion Tower.
