Valtan Phase 2

The best way to counter Valtan is to pre-fire his attacks three seconds after the cutscene. This counter should be tried by all eight players of your team. Failure to counter him will wipe your team. You can counter any of his six attacks, but the first one is usually the best way to counter him. In the following sections, we’ll look at how to counter Valtan.

First of all, you need to know how to counter Valtan’s AOE attacks. This will allow you to dodge his attacks. If you can dodge them, you’ll be in good shape for this fight. If you have low DPS and are concerned about wipe mechanics, you should use Balthorr. In addition to his powerful AOE attacks, Balthorr also has a sidereal that lasts thirty seconds.

Achates

The Guardian Raid bosses are some of the toughest fights in the Lost Ark. They require players to use dodging skills to survive, and the final boss, Achates, is no exception. The lion-like Achates has 12 abilities, including Stone Statues, Curse, and Annihilation. Learn how to counter them with the tips in this guide. Also, learn how to use different pieces of gear to improve your overall health and defense.

Achates’s attacks deal massive damage and can knock down teammates. Achates will also sometimes fly towards a player and charge through them. This will deal massive damage to everyone in his path, including teammates. This attack is not easy to dodge, so beware! While Achates’ first charge can damage players and teammates alike, beware of the second charge, which is even more difficult to dodge. This means players should be aware of Achates’ rage attack.

Earthquake of Achates

In Lost Ark, one of the most effective strategies for defeating Achates is to use Counter Attack. When Achates applies his Scorch Debuff, he will glow blue, and you can use this to your advantage. The second part of this move stuns Achates so that you can use your buffs. After this, use the other two types of attacks to deal massive damage. Using both types of attacks will ensure your victory!

Earthquake of Achates is a basic attack that allows you to deal massive damage to your enemies. If you use this attack with the spawned Achates, you’ll damage everyone nearby with his breath attack. However, you should be careful not to stand on the cracks, as this will cause you to take massive damage. If you do land on one, remember to roll away. Achates will then come back to the ground.

Spin attack of Valtan

One of the most effective ways to counter the Spin attack of the Valtan is to stand below the hilt of the axe. When Valtan uses this attack, the axe will slam into the ground, and summons rocks that form a cross pattern. If you’re caught in the middle of a circle, be sure to crouch beneath it, as it’ll slam into you, pushing you away from the arena. Then, after hitting you, he will use his backwards spin attack to smash the ground with both of his fists, causing a shockwave and explosion.

There are many ways to counter Valtan’s second attack, and you can even pre-fire your first counter to minimize the amount of damage it deals. First, gather in the area that isn’t yet destroyed. It’s best to do so at the three and nine o’clock position, so you’ll have a small window to counter the attack. The attack will barely be visible, so you’ll need to use Flame Grenades and other high-damage items.

Pre-firing the first counter in Valtan Phase 2

There are a few different strategies to pre-fire the first counter in Valtan Phase 2, but this guide is going to focus on the first one. You need to gather in a non-destroyed part of the arena, around 3 or 9 o’clock. Once the cutscene has ended, you’ll have 3 seconds to counter the first attack, so you’ll want to get started right away.

While you’re standing still, try to get your teammate to counterattack. You can get more damage if you hit Valtan’s sidereals and ghosts, but you’ll need to wait until he swings his big swing. That’s why you need to try to get rid of all the ghosts’ armour stacks before using this ability. Make sure that you’re using this strategy for a long time, though, because it can pay off in the end.

Blocking boss attacks

When fighting the toughest enemies in Lost Ark, it is imperative to know how to counter their attacks. While most of these abilities are not directly named “Block” or “Counter”, they are very important for faster boss defeats. Your ability to counter-attack the boss can make or break a raid. You should consider mounting a few counter skills so that you can use them whenever needed. Listed below are some of the most common skills you should mount.

First, make sure you have the necessary items to defeat this enemy. In the Lost Ark game mode, the Chaotic Chuo is found in Melody Forest. This is a limited-time Raid event. To get to this location, triport to Cloud Valley and go northeast. Luckily, this boss respawns massively, so it is possible to find one in your area. You can check his respawn status using the Procyon’s Compass.
