  • Burrowing Pursuit – Narcasena will burrow into the ground and chase a player.  You can tell what player he is pursuing by the trail of dust that follows.  He will the Leap out of the ground and slam, dealing damage.  You will need to evade once he leaps out to avoid damage.

Narcasena Guardian Raid Strategy

Throughout the Fight, Narcasena will passively use Power Charge.  As he charges his power, his attacks deal more damage and he gains access to New Attacks.   Players can stagger Narcasena in his charged state with Whirlwind bombs or Stagger attacks.  This will cause Narcasena to fall to the ground and open up a window to Break his tail.  You will notice a Flowing Blue target on Narcasenas tail at this point.  Use Destruction Bombs or Break abilities to cut off Naracesenas Stinger and reset his Power Charge.  This will help reduce the number of Lightning Attacks he uses.

When Narcasena does get charged up he will cast Lightning Storm.  Lightning Storm will choose a player to follow around the map until it ends.  This player needs to make sure he pulls the AOE lightning chain away from the group to avoid getting other members of the party damaged/stunned.  Lightning Beam and Electric Eruptions can also stun you so make sure you are aware when Narcasena telegraphs these abilities.

Try to avoid Narcasena’s charged attacks the best you can, because if he is able to electrocute you, he will use Narcasena’s Sting.  If he does, players can use Staggering abilities or Whirlwind Bombs to free the player from Narcasena’s Stinger.  

Mind your mechanics and prevent Power Charge and you’ll have Narcasena in the grave in no time!
