Fighting gods is something of a tradition in 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Honkai: Star Rail, starting with the tutorial and continuing throughout the story. In Amphoreus, you'll face off against Nikador, the Titan of Strife a whopping three times. They get stronger each time you fight them, with each incarnation adding new mechanic▨s or phases, culminating in a fight against a deity at nearly their full strength.

Ta൩king down Nikador can be a trial; the final time you face them is a true test of your skills and builds. You'll discover everything you need to know about beating them here.

All Incarnation Of Strife Attacks

The first time you fight Nikador (called Savage God, Mad King, Incarnation Of Strife in-game), they'll only have one phase. The second and third fights have two phases, but encounters two and thr💫ee are very different beasts.

You'll use the initial fight as a primer for those that follow, and the second one is essentially an expansion on the first. It only adds a๊ few extra attacks without doing much to change up how it all works. The final fight requires you to engage with its mechanics unless you want to tempt a full team wipe.

How To Beat The First Encounter

One note before we get started. Like all the Titankin enemies in Amphoreus, Nikador has the War Armor effect via the Polis Protector Talent, which reduces the damage they take. After being hit seven♔ times, the War Armor shatters, dealing damage to the boss, adding minor Imaginary damage to your attacks, and delaying their action.

After using the Calamity Eternal attack, Nikador gains the Titanic Corpus buff, which reduces the damage they take by 30 percent and increases the damage of their next attack by 20 percent. Titanic Corpus functions similarl⛄y to War Armor but has 12 stacks instead of seven and also enables Nikador's next attack to Imprison any of your characters it hits.

To counter this effect, your party will gain Glory stacks after Nikador uses Calamity Eternal, and Skill and Ultimate attacks increase your Glory values. Glory allows your attacks to remove Titanic Corpus stacks and also increases their damage dealt, and removing all of them not only deals heavy damage to the boss but also regenerates Energy for the whole party.

However, after using Calamity Eternal, that stack value increases to 12, and all characters gain Glory stacks. The number of Glory stacks determines how many Titanic Corpus stacks they can reduce, and you can gain Glory by using Skills and🦂 Ultimates.

It doesn't matter what kind of attack you use to reduce War Armor and Titanic Corpus. Regular attacks, Ultimates, and follow-up attacks all reduce the corresponding amount of stacks on thꦉe b🌄oss.

If you manage to remove all 12 Titanic Corpus stacks, not only will the boss take a solid chunk of damage, but it will also cancel the effect and regenerate Energy for the whole party.

The Savage God, Mad King, Incarnation of Strife also uses the following attacks:

How To Beat The Second Encounter

You fight Nikador again midway through the Amphoreus campaign, and this encounter has two phases plus an additional attack to deal with.

This second encounter with Nikador is a more traditional Honkai: Star Rail boss fight. The only attack that's truly threatening is All Realms Leveled, All Legions to Dust, but you should 💮do your 🐟best to keep everyone at full health regardless.

How To Beat The Third Encounter

The third fight with Nikador pits you against them at nearly their full power, and they receive a name change♑ befitting the increased difficulty: The Giver, Master of Legions, Lance of Fury. This form not only uses the same attacks as phase t⛎wo but has a new trick up its sleeve, and it's a doozy.

Nikador isn't the only one who gets to act here; his restored divinity also does. The divinity is marked by a golden sigil in the turn order, the same one that floats near the Titan's back.

Whenever the divinity first attacks, it uses The Vanquished Behold Woe, drawing out your characters' literal souls, inflicting the Conquer or Be Conquered state, and reducing the amount ꦚo꧒f HP they can heal.

Attacking the spears holding a character's soul reduces that spear's HP and increases the character's ability to heal. Breaking a spear removes the Conquer or Be Conquered state and returns a character's ability to fully heal.

Nikador's divinity can act multiple times, so even if you break its soul spears to get your healing abilities back, the boss can simply draw out your party's souls again.

In the first phase of the fight, the soul draw and Nikador's regular attacks are all you need to deal with. The second phase is where it gets dicey.

To avoid being easily wiped by the Fury Falls, and Bows to Strife attack, it's highly recommended removing your characters' Conquered states by destroying as many of the character soul spears as possible. The more of th✃em the boss can absorb before its ultimate attack, the more it can enhance its dama🧔ge.

Best Teams For Beating The Incarnation Of Strife And The Lance Of Fury

Nikador's forms are all weak to Ice, Lightning, and Quantum damage, meaning you'll want to have a source of at least one of each damage type — preferably two. If you're 💟newer to Honkai: Star Rail, Serval, Pela, and especially Remembrance Trailblazer are fantastic choices here.

Note that the soul spears conjured by The Vanquished Behold Woe in the fight against the Lance of Fury are weak to Lightning, Quantum, and Imaginary, making Lightning the preferred damage type.

The teams presented here deal with all versions of the boss well, with one🙈 team, in parti🦂cular, trivializing the fights.
