Altar of Invocation: Difference between revisions

*'''Counter Designation:''' Berthe stands upright and sends out a <font color=blue>blue</font>, <font color=purple>purple</font> or <font color=red>red</font> howl. This does not deal damage, but for 50 seconds (8/5 KR Patch: 70 seconds) after, the skill tier that matches the color of the howl will cause Berthe to counter with his signature Howl attack.

*<font color=red>'''Ice Beam:'''</font> Berthe becomes invulnerable as he charges up his ice beam, 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.

*Upon reaching 150x HP and any time afterwards, Berthe will perform the '''Counter Designation''', targeting two skill tiers at once. Previous '''Counter Designation''' will be cleared.

*'''Counter Designation:''' As before, Berthe will periodically target certain skill tiers throughout the fight, displayed through the use of a special UI at the top of the screen with 3 colored orbs. These follow the same colors as in phase 1.

*<font color=red>'''Soul Fragments:'''</font> Berthe will raise his left hand into the air and will spawn yellow soul fragments across the map, while also teleporting some players to a different plane of existence. The fragments will periodically disappear, sending a pulse across the field that inflicts massive damage to all players regardless of the map they are on. Destroy them to prevent the pulse from occurring. Once all orbs have either exploded or been destroyed, Berthe will be dazed and open to attack.

*The '''Counter Designation''' UI will automatically change depending on Berthe's health:

*The <b>Soul Fragments</b> phase will begin every 2 minutes, however their spawn is delayed if <b>Counter Designation</b> or <b>Boundary of Black and White</b> is active.

*Once the <b>Soul Fragments</b> phase starts, the fragments will spawn every 10 seconds. After 10 seconds have passed, the fragments will trigger an explosion dealing remaining HP% damage to the player (increasing Max HP will not help, damage reduction is also ignored). The explosion of a fragment can be delayed by 1.5 seconds by hit-stunning the fragment.

*If '''Counter Designation''' is active, players have an option to coordinate with their team members to damage the boss with any skill type while the boss is performing the '''Boundary of Black and White''' pattern. If the team is successful in removing '''Counter Designation''', then the boss will not '''Howl''', otherwise use '''Seal of Time''' to prevent yourself and your team members from being killed by '''Counter Designation''' pattern after '''Boundary of Black and White''' pattern is over.

*<font color=red>'''Orb Release:'''</font> The boss releases 9 light orbs and then 9 dark orbs in a circle around itself. After being released, the orbs will initially slow down slightly before accelerating again. Players hit by the light orbs will receive a stack of the "light" debuff per hit. Players hit by the dark orbs will receive a stack of the "dark" debuff per hit.

*<font color=red>'''Mass Orb Release:'''</font> The boss teleports to the top-left platform and immediately performs an enhanced version of '''Orb Release''', sending out two sets of each orb. It will then repeat the attack after teleporting to the center platform and the top-right platform respectively.

**<font color=red>'''Dance of Light and Darkness:'''</font> An enhanced version of '''Mass Orb Release'''. The light orbs from both sets will start to spiral clockwise, while the dark orbs from both sets will start to spiral counter-clockwise. Immediately after releasing the second set of orbs, the boss will then send out an additional 2 rings of bright light spheres that move outwards past the light and dark orbs rapidly, after which they slowly return towards to the boss to form 2 rings around it. The rings then move outwards again after some time. At the same time as the bright light spheres, smaller light particles will flow out of the boss in a spiral like pattern until the bright light spheres have formed a ring around the boss. A visual representation of the entire attack can be found [[Media:PruinaumRaidLightDarkPattern.gif|'''''here''''']]. As before, the boss performs this 3 times, on the top-left, center and top-right platforms.

**Can now be inflicted with debuffs while dazed after the '''Soul Fragment''' pattern. (Excluding debuffs with incapacitating effects)

**The '''Counter Designation''' pattern's cooldown has been increased and duration has been decreased.

**'''Berthe''' will no longer become invulnerable during the '''Ice Beam''' pattern.

**While '''Berthe''' is using the '''Ice Beam''' pattern, damage taken by him will be reduced.

**Chance of '''Berthe''' sealing '''[[:Category: Bravery Skills|Bravery]]''' skills during '''Counter Designation''' has been slightly reduced.

**When '''Berthe''''s HP is at 150 or less, no additional '''Counter Designation''' pattern will be used until initial howl ends.

**Reduced the amount of HP required to finish the '''Counter Designation''' pattern.

**When the '''Soul Fragments''' pattern is executed, the '''Boundary of Black and White''' pattern will be removed in case they overlap.

**'''Soul Orb''' changed to shoot while facing forwards.

**'''Soul Orb''' movements have been adjusted.
