A guide for Ayanka, the final boss in Cathedra Cliffs.

1. Front swipes
2. Linear front to back slam (unblockable)
3. 270 degree pizza (aimed at tank, unblockable, knocks down)
4. Back to front jab (unblockable)
5. Punches tank (stuns)
6. Spear dash to furthest
7. Marks furthest after dash, followed by arrow volley attack
8. AoE attack CC to stop.

Special Attack:

- Every 40 seconds (DPS check). Jumps to furthest and punches 4 people and finishes with room wide AOE.

Mechanics: 80/40% Easy Mode - 90/60/30% Hard Mode

1. Phase "Dive Bomb" appears. Room wide AOE (iframe). Followed by suction (cannot iframe).
2. Everyone F rolls. Tank at 2'o clock. Two pairs of 2, one pair at 6'o clock and one pair at 9'o clock. 13m away. Everyone else is at melee range.
3. Boss throws 4 feathers at 4 furthest.
4. 2 puddles will spawn (RNG either 2 and 8'o clock or 4 and 10'o clock).
5. A "cleanser" from each pair will grab their puddle. ONLY 1 Cleanser from a group will cleanse both their feathers. The second Cleanser grabs puddle and waits and DPS.
6. Boss will Far Mark (we had the other person with Cleanser #2 do this). They get dazed and a line forms between them to the two remaining feathers. Feathers will fly to their location and Far Mark is undazed.
7. The #2 Cleanser will cleanse their two feathers when stack timer is at 2 seconds.
8. CC bars open. Knock Downs are ideal for CC. At the same time the Far Mark will move opposite to the two remaining feathers and be far to receive a SECOND Far Mark.
9. Boss will arrow volley attack the Far Mark.
10. 7m spin + 14m spin attack. The small spin attack will throw two additional feathers at two furthest.
11. Two Pillars spawn + Spear (RNG placements).
12. Pillars count down from 3 seconds.Party Iframe the explosion to avoid Blind.
13. The two Cleansers from before stand in between the Pillars and the boss. They block the orb that emerges from the Pillar (after it explodes).
14. Ayanko will fire 25 Lightning Aoes directed at the tank (random, telegraphed).
15. A yellow line will form between the two people who blocked the orbs.
16. The line people navigate over to the last two feathers and each will touch a feather. Line will become red. This also cleanses the feathers.
17. Bring the red line over to the Spear and hold it over the Spear until the line disappears. Spear will become red.
18. Boss will pull the Spear. Provided Spear was red it takes mech damage.

2nd/3rd Phase:

1. 6 feathers instead of 4. Everyone will get a feather. Spread them out on the left side of the room, don't stack feathers.
2. We had tank drop feather around 10'o clock and one cleanser drop theirs at 3'o clock.
3. 4 puddles will spawn. Cleanser #1 takes puddle at 2'o clock first, cleanses their feather at 3'o clock, moves to take last puddle at 4'o clock. Cleanser #2 takes puddle at 10'o clock, cleanses tank's feather near 10, and takes last puddle at 8'o clock. After both Cleansers picked up their second puddle they WAIT and DPS.
4. Furthest person for Far Mark. Now, there will be 4 feathers with lines connecting. The other two people will body block any two feathers.
5. Far Mark will be undazed then goes opposite to feather placement. They get Far Mark AGAIN to bait Arrow Volley attack.
6. Small spin followed by large spin. The two Cleansers holding the debuff stand at 13m to get the 2 feathers from the spin attack. Instantly cleanses feathers.
7. Two Pillars spawn, same thing Cleansers block the orbs.
8. Bring yellow line over to feathers and they touch ANY 2 of the 4 feathers. Doesn't matter which one.
9. Line becomes red. Bring the red line over top of the Spear.

Tips:

- Currently easy mode phases at 90/60/30% and wipes at 3 stacks (should be 80/40% and 4 stacks).
- Puddles = Wrath debuff (25 second timer).
- You need to touch puddles to cleanse a feather.
- Cleansing feather = 1 stack on the boss for 15 seconds.
- Enrage at 4 stacks easy mode, 3 stacks hard mode.
- Never drop feathers under the boss.
- You can cleanse more feathers when stacks are at 2 seconds.
- Always party stealth or iframe the pillar explosion (causes blind).
- The yellow line can never touch the boss, nor feathers.
- Taking too long to "cut" the Spear with the red line can cause wipe.
- The Arrow Volley attack cannot hit feathers as it will cleanse.
- The Lightning AOE attacks can cleanse feathers.
- Stack the 4 initial feathers in first phase. Spread out the 6 feathers in second/third phases.
