Blade & Soul NA Warped Citadel Kangrim Guide
A guide on the first boss (Kangrim) in Warped Citadel. This is 1 of 2 possible methods to clear the boss. I will feature the other possible method later on. Attack Rotation: 1. 2 front swipes. 2. Front + Back + Spin (spin will knock back). 3. AoE - far to middle to inner. 4. RNG shockwave or blind. Body language tells you what attack he will do. Shockwave = twirling body. Blind = arm raised. 5. Star pattern cross. Special Attack - Connects a beam between him and 3 closest. SS away (10m or more) to break the beam. Mechanics Normal Mode 85%/40%, Hard Mode 85%/65%/30%: 1. Jumps to centre. Roomwide AOE. HM block this. 2. Spawns pillars and marks 3 furthest with green/orange/purple. The triangle of the connected pillars for first phase are at 12, 4, and 8'o clock. 3. Shockwave attack (stealth it). 4. Ideally, the markers need to be standing by their matching pillar and wait. 5. One coloured pillar chosen at random (boss points to it). The colour matching marker touches it and immediately SS towards the boss. 6. At the same time, the tank goes go the opposite pillar of the chosen pillar. 7. Boss fires lightning attack at the marker. 8. Both tank and marker are dazed and then swapped. Marker touches opposite pillar. 9. 90-degree AOE fired at the tank. If done correctly, tank should be 7m or less from the boss and can SS through the boss to avoid the AOE. 10. Does AOE - far to middle to inner. 11. Second pillar will be chosen at random. Repeat. 12. Third and last pillar chosen. Repeat. 13. Ends phase with 5-hit AOE. 14. Mechanical damage of 22% normal mode. 12% hard mode. 40% Phase: - Same as 85% phase. - Triangle formation is at 3, 6, and 9'o clock. Tips: - Markers should be waiting by their matching pillar (most ideal). - The 90-degree AOE fired at the tank is instant death in hard mode. It can be iframed in normal mode. - 90-degree AOE field triggers additional attack if pillars are hit. Purple pillar = 30m radius, binds players if within and hit by boss. Orange pillar = blinds (turn your back). Green pillar = emits 30m radius shockwave. - Mechanics NM happen at 85%/40%. Mechanics HM happen at 85%/65%/40%. - Use HM Block for the room wide AOE due to phase. Stealth the shockwave just after the initial phase start. HM Block or Sheath the 5-hit AOE. - 4th attack in rotation is RNG between shockwave or blind. Safest to turn your back + jump. - Shockwave pre-tell is when he floats and twirls. Blind pre-tell is when he raises his arm into the air.
