Auto Attacks
Mechanic:
⬥ Vindicta's auto attacks deal Melee
damage
⬥ In Hard Mode Phase 3, Gorvek attacks rapidly with Melee auto attacks, hitting up to around 4,500 damage per hit
Solution:
⬥ Pray against Melee
or
⬥ Pray
once you are comfortable surviving mechanics
⬥ In Hard Mode Phase 3, use defensive abilities if you are taking too much damage from Gorvek's rapid attacks
Phase 1 - Hurricane (Example)
Mechanic:
⬥ Vindicta uses a 5x5 Melee AoE when you are within melee distance
⬥ If you are outside melee distance, Hurricane is replaced by a Ranged attack instead
Solution:
⬥ Use Devotion
to mitigate the damage or
⬥ Tank the attack
⬥ Stay outside melee distance if you want to force the Ranged attack instead
Phase 1 - Ranged Attack (Example)
Mechanic:
⬥ Vindicta fires a single Ranged hit if you are outside melee distance
⬥ In Hard Mode, this deals moderate Ranged damage to a random target
Solution:
⬥ Briefly switch to pray against Ranged 
Phase 1 - Dragonfire (Example)
Mechanic:
⬥ Vindicta raises her arms to signal Gorvek
⬥ Gorvek fires a straight line of flames across the arena
⬥ This deals rapid Magic damage if stood in
Solution:
⬥ Move out of the fire
⬥ Avoid standing directly on the dragonfire line, as the damage hits rapidly
Phase 2 - Mounted Gorvek
Mechanic:
⬥ Vindicta mounts Gorvek once she reaches the phase transition threshold
⬥ In Normal Mode, this happens at 100,000 LP
⬥ In Hard Mode, this happens at 150,000 LP
⬥ Once mounted, Vindicta and Gorvek gain a new attack pattern
Solution:
⬥ Prepare for Ranged Attack and Dragonfire Wall
⬥ Keep moving out of dragonfire lines while continuing to damage the boss
Phase 2 - Dragonfire Wall (Example)
Mechanic:
⬥ Gorvek flies to a random corner and breathes a straight line of flames across the arena
⬥ This works the same as Phase 1 - Dragonfire
Solution:
⬥ Move out of the fire or
⬥ Surge
towards Gorvek and past the fire
Phase 2 - Ranged Attack (Example)
Mechanic:
⬥ Gorvek fires a high-damage Ranged hit
Solution:
⬥ Use Resonance
to heal from the hit or
⬥ Pray against Ranged
and use Devotion 
Phase 3 - Gorvek (HM Only)
Mechanic:
⬥ After Vindicta is defeated, Gorvek continues the fight alone with 300,000 LP
⬥ Gorvek uses rapid Melee auto attacks, then flies away to create a dragonfire wall before returning to the middle
Solution:
⬥ Pray against Melee
during Gorvek's rapid auto attacks
⬥ Use defensive abilities if needed, as the Melee hits can deal heavy damage
⬥ Be ready to move when Gorvek flies away for Dragonfire Wall
Phase 3 - Dragonfire Wall (HM Only)
Mechanic:
⬥ Gorvek flies away and breathes a straight line of flames across the arena
⬥ This works the same as Phase 1 - Dragonfire
⬥ In Hard Mode Phase 3, dragonfire lines stay active until three are present
⬥ When the next dragonfire wall is used, the oldest line despawns
Solution:
⬥ Move out of the fire
⬥ Track active dragonfire lines and avoid boxing yourself in
⬥ Use Surge
or Dive
to reposition safely
