Skills
Additional Notes/Tips:
General
- The fight is split into two phases, an outpost battle against the pillars of Hod, and a boss battle where team directly confronts Hod.
- In the outpost battle, destroy Hod's Invasion Pillar twice to advance to the boss battle.
- In the boss battle, you will face Hod and one summoned pillar at the same time.
- Students with CC (Crowd Control) abilities are important in this fight. All 3 types of CC (Taunt, Stun and Fear) contribute time to the CC Gauge.
CC Gauge
- Hod and Invasion pillars have a circular gauge right beside their HP bar. For convenience, we'll call it CC Gauge .
- Every time Hod/Invasion Pillar are affected by a CC ability, the skill effect duration will be accumulated in the CC Gauge .
- Once Gauge is full, the damage dealt to Hod/Invasion Pillar will be increased for 30s.
- In addition to increasing the damage taken, filling the CC Gauge on Hod will increase the Groggy Gauge by 25% and reduce the ATG gauge, so the importance of CC is very high.
- Accumulated CC duration required to fill the gauge depends on the difficulty level. The required time in seconds in order of Normal/Hard/VeryHard/Hardcore/Extreme is 6/7/8/9/10s (or 24/28/32/36/40s total to stun boss for 20s)
Invasion Pillar
- Invasion Pillars have a blue circular Erosion Field.
After a certain amount of time, the erosion range will increase, and if the turret of friendly unit is eroded, the turret will attack the students instead. - If there is a students inside the erosion field, the cost recovery of that student will decreased.
In order to reduced the erosion range, you need to fill up the CC gauge of the Invasion Pillar.
Active Gauge/ATG
- There are 3 square at the bottom right of the boss's HP bar.
When the boss ATG gauge is full, "Radiance of Glory" skill will be activated and deal damage to all of your students. After the skill ended, Hod's ATK will permanently increased by 50% so be sure to stop it.
Groggy Gauge
- The boss has a thin gauge at the bottom of its HP bar. The Groggy Gauge will fill up by a quarter each time CC Gauge is completely filled. The Groggy Hauge can be filled up to 4 times (each time is 25,000,000; total is 100,000,000), when all 4 times has been accumulated, the boss will be stunned for 20s.
Groggy Gauge if filled by either destroying the summoned Invasion Pillar, or by filling up Hod's CC Gauge. - Hod will summon a pillar immediately when the boss battle phase stars (sometimes it could use a different skill, it is recommend to restart the fight when this happens), and will continue summoning new ones roughly 1 minute after previous Invasion Pillar is destroyed.
Pillar summoning can be interrupted by completely filling Groggy Gauge during the summoning animation. If you succeed in cancelling it, Hod will no longer summon Invasion Pillars for the remainder of battle.
