Mechanics and counters

  • Core and cross laser

    Pattern
    While its core is intact, it fires lasers that stun any Nikke hit directly.
    Counter
    Get through the first laser in cover, then destroy the core with your Burst before the second one.

  • Wing missiles

    Pattern
    After the laser, it fires six missiles from its wings.
    Counter
    Clear them with an AoE Burst or shoot them down directly.

  • Don't break both wings

    Pattern
    Breaking both wings makes it teleport around and unleash fast, powerful missiles, costing you a lot of damage.
    Counter
    Break only one wing to halve the missiles. Keep your DPS on the same side and aim at the body so you don't break the other wing by accident.

  • Machine gun

    Pattern
    Deals unavoidable damage over time.
    Counter
    A healer keeps things stable.
