From the first note of the minstrel's melody, you recall the scene with crystal clarity─your allies and Hydaelyn, hope against hope. Overcome once again with the emotion of that day, no epithet seems too grand, no verse too epic...

— In-game description

Guide

Aggressive difficulty r6.png Hydaelyn

=== First Phase ===

Heroes's Radiance: Raid-wide AoE.

Shining Saber: Stack up to spread damage.

Crystallize: Will use one of 3-attacks followed by a weapon change.

  • Water - stack in groups.
  • Rock - stack in the middle.
  • Ice - spread.

Weapon Change

  • Dancer Chakrams (Red icon): A large donut AoE, stand close to her to avoid this attack.
  • Dragoon Lance (Green icon): A large circle AoE under her, move away to avoid this attack.
  • Paladin Sword & Shield (Blue icon): A plus shaped AoE that always goes in directions of cardinals, position yourself in an intercardinal position to avoid this attack.

Magos's Radiance: Raid wide attack.

Aureole: Wide AOE attack where you're only safe on the East and West.

Lateral Aureole: Wide AOE attack where you're only safe on the North and South.

Mousa's Scorn: Shared Tank Buster


=== Crystal Phase ===

Crystal adds

  • Hydaelyn summons 6 crystals.
  • DPS should prioritize glowing crystals.

Echo of Hydaelyn adds

  • Two Echo of Hydaelyn spawn that each tank should pick up.
  • They can be empowered by the crystals (a tether will go between the add and the crystal if empowered) so tanks should drag them away.
  • Keeping the add and crystal tethered casues Conviction the Conviction Meter to increase.
  • Once a crystal dies tanks can drag the adds to the dead crystals to minimize conviction meter.

Conviction

  • Hydaelyn casts this after the adds are dead.
  • Strength is influenced by the Conviction Meter.
  • Mitigate


=== Wave Phase ===

Halo: Raid-wide AoE.

Lightwave:

  • Spawns Crystals and Waves.
  • When Waves collide with Crystals it will cause a Raide-wide AoE.
  • Mitigate Wave-Crystal collisions by hiding behind another crystal.

Infralateral Arc: Boss cleaves toward each crystal. Split up and share the dmamage.

Heroes's Glory: Cleave in front of the boss.

Heros's Sundering: Tankbuster in the shape of a cone.

Parhelion: Shoots out three sets of dancer chakrams in three directions that drop line AoEs from Hydaelyn, these will explode in the order they spawn.
