Ultimate Vykas Gate 2 Guide | Lost Ark

hey guys this is nasdam here and welcome to legion guides where i go over all the major mechanics and break down the normal patterns [Music] in gate 2 we can finally meet vicus so let's dive right in the recommended battle items are hp potions flame grenades time stop potions and swiftness robes if you are playing a slow class i'll go over the uses throughout this video i'll be going over the major mechanics first but in hard mode a lot of players will die because of the normal patterns so i recommend learning them which will be in the later half of this video when you first enter gate 2 you'll be greeted by veikus attack her until she is at around 145 bars and she will start the merry-go-round you can only be damaged by your laser and the circle under you will damage anyone else that's in it spread out and start rotating clockwise this way you can dodge the laser when it locks and everyone can avoid stepping on someone else's circle after the merry-go-round you'll need to push her to around 120 bars which is when her clone wings mechanic starts for this mechanic you will have to get into a certain position before starting the raid three players that will be responsible for counting the number of open wings will be located here somewhere around 11 o'clock three o'clock and seven o'clock when the clone wings mechanic starts head to your positions and check how many wings the clone has opened let your party members know the location and how many wings were open the other five players will stand in a cross shape in the middle these five players will be responsible for absorbing these purple orbs after you absorb the orb there will be a red or purple symbol above your head if there are three red symbols everyone needs to be next to the clone with two wings open after the explosion everyone needs to head to the clone with one wing open finally everyone needs to head to the clone with no wings open if there are three purple symbols the order will be zero wings open one wing open two wings open let's look at an actual raid for a better understanding [Music] [Music] also if someone is dead before this mechanic starts that person should let everyone else know what their responsibility was if the responsibility was counting open wings the nearest orb absorber can walk over and take a look if an orb absorber died the person checking the wing that is nearest to that orb can absorb the orb after counting the wings after the wing pattern around 95 bars there will be another session of merry-go-round keep rotating clockwise like before at around 75 bars the waffle mechanic will start one thing to note here is that these rotating flames can push you so make sure you're dodging the floor but don't let the flames push you either to see the next mechanic you'll have to push her to 65 bars at 65 bars the red black war mechanic will start ficus will teleport to the middle and summon clones near four o'clock seven o'clock and eleven o'clock the clones will be shooting black orbs at vicus and you'll need to body block specific orbs before the clones shoot the orbs they will have this red or black ring around them there will be a total of five rings and you need to memorize the order of the black rings if you are colorblind the red wings will be a square shape and the black rings will be a circular shape after these rings the clones will start to shoot orbs towards vicus you need to body block the orbs that are in the same order as the black rings for example the rings appeared in this order red black red black black this means even though all the orbs look black the first and third orbs are actually red ones and you shouldn't touch them only body block the second fourth and fifth orbs if a black orb is absorbed by vicus this will be a wipe if one player absorbs two black orbs or a red orb that player will die now that you know what's going on let's look into how to get through this mechanic for this mechanic two players should be positioned at each of these spots the remaining two players will be spares the reason why we have spares is because two of the three spots will shoot three black orbs like i mentioned before if one player blocks two black orbs that player will die and this is where the spares come over and take the third black orb let your party know which numbers were black in this case the second and fourth rings were black so you should type the location 11 then to 4. if someone is dead a spare would take over that location and one player will have to absorb two black orbs you can body block black orbs with time stop potions but the time stop potion duration will last for two orbs like i mentioned before if you touch a red orb you'll die instantly so you need to only use time stop potions to body block two consecutive black orbs now if you've been paying attention you might have noticed some of the players with the covidis explosion debuff when you have this debuff you'll be installing an aura that constantly shoots three objectives in normal mode the objectives just damage you but in hard mode the objectives can stun you for a very long time thus if you have this debuff walk to an edge and face outwards so that there will be no projectiles flying inwards while this debuff is randomly given to players when vikus has less than 50 bars every time you get hit you'll start gaining this debuff if you hit three stacks of this debuff you'll also gain the covetous explosion debuff at around 45 bars the waffle mechanic will start again like i mentioned before if you get hit three times after vegas is under 50 bars you'll be holding the covetous explosion debuff and if you get hit by these rotating flames you might end up facing inwards if you fear that you'll send projectiles inwards i recommend facing outwards and using a time stop potion to get through the waffle mechanic to avoid shooting these projectiles inwards finally around 15 bars you'll have to do the merry-go-round mech one last time and after this there won't be any more major mechanics [Music] [Music] now let's go over the normal patterns but don't be fooled by the name normal pattern they're just called normal patterns because vegas uses these patterns randomly some of these patterns can instantly kill you so i recommend learning all of them the purple ring vegas summons a purple ring in front of her this ring will follow the player with the purple ring on top of the player's head if the ring touches anyone the ring will explode which will cover a large area if the ring is chasing you run to one edge and ping that you're heading that way so that your other raid members can run to the opposite way if you cannot run to the opposite direction try to stay near the player with the purple ring aggro when someone absorbs the purple ring there will be a tight safe zone right where the ring was absorbed when the safe zone appears jump into the safe zone however you need to be careful here everyone else will be submitting red circles under their feet which can set players flying if you're still summoning these circles don't jump into the safe zone because that will send everyone flying away from the safe zone wait until this mark disappears then jump into the safe zone yellow rings ficus will lift both her arms up and spin this yellow disc there will be yellow rings flying all over the place if you get hit by one of the yellow rings you'll be stunned and there'll be a red circle under you the stun duration is short enough for you to space out of it so make sure you're ready to space out this kicks ficus will lift her leg up then start shooting these discs at the aggro after she shoots all the discs she will pause for a second and throw five more discs in a cone shape when she pauses before shooting the five discs she will be counterable when she is blue however now you need to understand the concept of counter-attack internal cooldowns this basically means after a counter there will be an internal cooldown where vicus is not counterable even when she uses a counterable attack so if she was countered a few seconds ago she may not be counterable during this attack this is super important because the 5 discs at the end of the attack can do a lot of damage if you are too close and get hit by all five discs so if you went in for the counter and vikus was not counterable yet there is a high chance you'll die so always keep in mind that she may not be counterable the backstab dash vacus will jump back then dash forward she will be counterable after she jumps back if you miss the counter she can do this pattern twice in a row so get ready for the second counter again make sure you're not going for the counter if you counted her a few patterns ago come over here ficus does a backflip then shoots these orbs out after the orbs reach their farthest distance they'll return to vicus and suck everyone in that were between these orbs if these orbs flew out from the front back indicators she will combo with the storing attack [Music] thorns ficus spins in place then sends out these thorns these thorns will return to her and attack the other side as well so make sure you're not standing on the other side when you see these thorns she can also teleport afterwards which means she'll throw her thorns again these thorns will shoot out from the front indicator first tornado ficus will crouch down a little then summon a tornado in front of her if you get hit by this she'll kick you away she can also use this right after she teleports a few times if she teleported multiple times like this then use the tornado she will axe kick you down and attack in a cross shape as well if you see someone get hit by this tornado stay in the diagonal position of the head and back indicators to dodge the cross attack wing attack ficus will levitate and gather this purple energy once you see this purple swirl get behind her a good way to find her back quickly is to look for the back attack indicator if i guess is under 50 bars and you're in front of her just run far away because you'll be hit multiple times and you'll get the covetous explosion debuff this is also a good time to use a sidereel skill in the neva [Music] graboid ficus will gather this purple energy with their hand then on the ground you'll see these vibrations which kind of look like something will pop out of it if you're still standing on it you'll be eaten by a graboid which will explode after a few seconds your raid members need to attack these grab boards to release you and from the grab boys exploding i usually like to use a flame grenade here to ensure killing the graboids you can also avoid being eaten with your space so make sure you space out when you see the grabbers coming out this is also a good time to use neneva you will be able to hit ficus and kill the grabwoods around her electric circles ficus will summon four circles which will electrocute you the order of the safe zones is out in in out so just make sure you're jumping to the correct safe zones this is also a good time to use the neva [Music] life sometimes promises warmth tomorrow just like a dusky sun setting splendor i remember [Music] i hope this video helped you master bike escape too and i hope to see you on my vikis gate 3 guide alright peace
