Mechanics

Attack Rotation

After you defeat Vindicta and Gorvek, in Hard Mode, Gorvek gains a health bar and tries to defeat you alone. ⬥ Phase 1 (300k - 150k): • 2 Autos → Hurricane → 3 Autos → Dragonfire → 3 Autos → Hurricane → Repeat ⬥ Phase 2 (150k - 0): • Melee Auto → Ranged attack → Melee Auto → Fly + Dragonfire → Repeat ⬥ Phase 3 (300k - 0): • 10 (1.2 tick) Melee Autos → Fly + Dragonfire → Fly back to middle → Repeat

Hurricane

⬥ A 5x5 melee AoE attack. ⬥ Hurricane is replaced by a Ranged attack outside of melee distance. Example

Dragonfire

⬥ Vindicta raises her arms to signal Gorvek. ⬥ Drops a dragonfire smoke line on top of the player. ⬥ Deals high continuous magic damage if stood in. Example

Mounted Gorvek (Phase 2)

⬥ Mounts Gorvek at 150k HP. ⬥ Gains new attack pattern.

Ranged attack

⬥ Vindicta deals a moderate amount of ranged damage to a random target.

Dragonfire Wall Phase 2

⬥ Vindicta commands Gorvek to engulf a straight line in flames. ⬥ Exactly the same as the dragonfire from Phase 1. ⬥ This is identical to the lines placed during phase 1 and can be dealt with the same way. Example

Gorvek (Phase 3)

⬥ Gorvek continues the fight with 300k HP. ⬥ Gains new attack pattern.

Gorvek melee attack (Phase 3)

⬥ Gorvek will rapidly hit the player with melee autoattacks, dealing up to 4,500 damage per hit.

Dragonfire Wall (Phase 3)

⬥ Gorvek flies off to engulf a straight line in flames. ⬥ Exactly the same as the dragonfire from Phase 1. ⬥ In Challenge Mode phase 3, dragonfire smoke lines stay until three are active. The next time dragonfire is used, the oldest line will despawn.
