Patissia Tips

Because I have struggled myself with her quite a lot in the beginning I thought I would share the most important tips here:

She has 5 phases, the first 2 are braindead easy, 3rd gets a bit more difficult and 4th and 5th are really difficult.

Interrupts: She got general interrupt resist, meaning my hard hit lvl 10 (100% flinch) only flinches her roughly every 2nd time. Same goes for stun. On the 3rd phase no interrupt works afaik. Tumble on the 4th phase triggers an area wide aoe that does very decent damage.

Tanking position:
1st: Doesn‘t matter
2nd+3rd: Try to keep her at the edge of the map so the sharks dissappear quickly.
4th: Middle. Like that the party can chill in the center of the fins without being hit by them and wait for the boss to go there.
5th: Anywhere again

In the first 2 phases she will sometimes do blue v-shaped sharks. Be careful she immediatly does a second wave after that without aoe marker and swaps the target. So prepare your i-frame or whatever to be safe.

In the 4th phase she spawns fire+ice fins in addition to the normal ones. The normal ones can‘t be interrupted afaik, but the fire and ice ones can. They are hp triggered and spawn at roughly 80, 50, 20 and 5% HP.

In general she moves a lot in 4th and 5th phase. You will often find her at 40m+ distance to you so you can‘t use shukuchi. Or can you? Here you can perfectly abuse the warcry and berserk bug. Make a 1MP combo with warcry or berserk as ender and use it, don‘t hold the movement pad, then shukuchi will automatically activate, even at 40m+ distance.

The 5th phase got basically only fatal attacks.
- Lightning balls: she will spawn 3 and they have a very wide aoe range. As soon as someone goes in range they detonate (pets detonate them too, so better don‘t bring any). The tank needs to be careful here to not kill his teammates by detonating the bombs.
- Dash: Just 3 simple dashes after the lightning balls, they are fatal but easy to dodge with manual evasion.
- Combination of red cross aoe and blue cross+meteor aoe. Just pay attention which aoe marker appears first and move from aoe marker to aoe marker accordingly.
I would upload clips of how to dodge them, but the upload option doesn‘t even let me upload a 480p 3sec clip.

- Red linear crisscross: at the edges are save spots. With longer i frames like phantom you can easily avoid it without moving, tho.
Make sure to place your decoy in the middle in the last phase.

Best Class? Archers have it probably the easist, but I have been playing my dw there all day long and have been doing just fine. As long as you get the hang of the pattern any class will do.

 

Thanks for this information, but instill don't get the part of "move from marker to marker according" mean, can you describe it more detail? Thank you

 

The combo has 4 parts:
1st: big aoe in the center
2nd: big aoe on the edge
3rd: blue linear
4th: blue meteor
At first move into number 2. When number 1 landed move into that free space. Then just run away from both blue aoes

 

actually there's another different "big-ass-whoopin aoe" pattern tht doesnt have tht blue-cross aoe as follow-up then end wth meteor thing, ive manage to get the hang of this aoe pattern. almost every1 had it easy here too but THE OTHER 1? well the best option for me atm wud be cheating ded trick wth "reconnecting to the server" -_-

p.s not talking about tht biiig lightning bomb tht slowly creeping towards u nor the fatal fin shark slash n definitly not the 3 consecutively fatal dash im talking about tht really big annoying aoe tht activate when she goes to mid but with different pattern from what u mentioned above

but yea still trying to figure out how to dodge/pdef /ps tht gracefully ^~^)/

 

The safe spots for that one are on the map edges, so you have to evasion away asap. The easier variant is to i-frame it (I just always phantom it)
