Encounter 2 Kill two packs of attendants and a knight > one set respawns with the addition of a Trammel > killing the Trammel unlocks the plates - you can now bounce the energy back and forth (1 send, 1 bounce, 2 bounce, 3 bounce) and let it fail once all the resonances are on the floor - during this time no mobs will spawn making it super safe and easy. The Trammel will spawn once again when the 3rd bounce reaches the sending plate and is not bounced again (e.g. a "failed" bounce). Kill the Trammel as a pair for expediency, or alone while the Call to Reckoning (CtR) players go to mid. The players without CtR can pick up one set of resonances while keeping an eye out for blights. When the players with CtR convert it to Stolen Favor (SF) in mid, the second player can already be ready and killing the newly spawned adds down bottom. The SF player makes the shape call while going to collect their resonances, both can work as a team to clear the top plate of mobs. Whoever is sparking the Conduit returns to the bottom and whoever is not stays up top and sends the beam. Resonances disappear as soon as the conduit is closed. Ideally all 6 are picked up. The more you can dunk near the boss the more time you get back for the next round. This was the easiest way the fireteam I was a part of found to do it. It's much easier to be bouncing resonances without adds trying to murder you.

I spent 3 hours on it last night and I was the only one in the group that couldn't make sense of it. They were literally walking me through it while streaming my screen if I got sent solo and I still couldn't comprehend it. I've watched 5 guides now and I still don't get it. I've never needed more than a couple pulls to understand a mechanic in this game, I'm going crazy trying to figure it out.
@deCrayonn2 ай бұрын
@@beeman4266lol being sent is the easiest part in my opinion. If your guardian is holding a shape, you need to start by matching that shape on the walls. to do that, you would kill the knights which drop shapes, and deposit those shapes into each respective guardian holding that same shape. if everyone did that part right, all 3 solo players will have 2 of their own shape showing on the wall. next you wanna disperse your 2 shapes, to the other 2 guardians. if your guardian is holding a circle, and you see 2 circles flashing on the wall, then you would kill knight, take 1st circle, dump into square, then kill knight, take 2nd circle, and dump into triangle. doing so will allow all three solo guardians to have one of each shape (2 on the wall, and the one that your guardian is holding. now all you have to do is kill both knights, and pick up both shapes, forming into a 3d shape. so if your guardian is holding a circle, and you gave both your circles to other 2 solo players. then you should have a triangle and square flashing on the wall, kill both knights, pick up triangle and square, and wait to leave.

Some rules for the first encounter: Minotaurs spawn in the first or second room, killing this Minotaur sends a hydra to the opposite room. These hydras control the opening of the door to the next room for the opposite team. It will generally be 3 rooms to traverse through for each team before being beckoned back to the center, which always occurs after the overload Minotaur is killed. Whichever team does not receive the overload must wait in their locked room until the overload is killed to return mid. The process repeats again when the tormentor is killed. When the second run of clearing rooms is completed by killing the second overload, the team with the normal Minotaurs powered plate will turn on, meaning they can start before the tormentor is killed. The team with the overload must kill the tormentor before their powered plate switches on. When closing pillars, anyone can shoot the center diamond, but someone with resonance must stand on the plate to successfully close it, hope this helps

For the second encounter, these mini bosses like shield phalnx, wizard, etc. will respawn if you fail to juggle the plates after you juggle more than one time. You need to kill them to enable the starting plate again. This can also change the symbol from the tower so it is recommended for both players to hold different resonance so you can switch it up if you fail. Double check the symbol to ensure that it is correct. I do suggest to collect the resonance as you juggle between plates while dealing with ads as they attempt to disrupt you. These resonance spots will always yield the same shape no matter what, so coordinate with your partner which one to get.

@jeremiahcollins99562 ай бұрын
2nd encounter tip: All 3 sides spawn in their pyramids and spheres immediately, ignoring everything else. Once they are in, fail the passing, and just kill your taken mini boss again, and then progress normally. This lets you just do one bounce to close the conduit. Avoiding a lot of ad clear, and disk field grenades.

I get the vibe from shadow's tone, certain word choices, and title lol, that this is a guide for new players. That being said, i think its important personally for specific recommendations to new playera for gear and loadouts in order to give them somehting to chase in order to improve in the raid. Experienced players dont really need this guidance but in a guide for new players i think it would be important, as if it isnt stated, it leaves them to not know what is good or think something have is good when it isnt. Which is fine to use mediocre stuff in the short time when learning. But its imperative to get better gear to make future runs better.

In 2nd encounter, you can start spawning in the resonance before going in for Stolen Favor. Just fail the relay intentionally when you have spawned in 6 total resonance per pillar, kill the punishment yellow bar and go for Stolen Favor. This way, you can focus on picking up resonance since adds spawn in after getting Stolen Favor.
