10 Lost Ark Tips To Help You Get Started | Beginner’s Guide
Lost Ark Demon Beast Canyon: Corrupted Vazuela mechanics
Throughout the fight, Vazuela will periodically mark a target player with a blue crosshair before spitting up a puddle of blood at the target. That puddle will deal significant damage over time to anyone who walks through it, so if you are targeted, hug the edge of the arena to keep the puddles from clogging up the center.
Eventually, those puddles will cover more ground and make it tough to navigate the arena. Thankfully, when you stagger Corrupted Vazuela, all those blood puddles will disappear. Underneath the boss’s health bar, you will see a purple “stagger bar” that drains as you deal damage. Empty it out, and you will stagger Corrupted Vazuela, clearing the puddles and creating a big DPS opening. If you don’t have skills with the High Stagger property, bring some combat items like Whirlwind Grenades to help out.
Lost Ark Demon Beast Canyon: Hideous Scarkril mechanics
Hideous Scarkrilis the second and final boss of Demon Beast Canyon and introduces more complicated mechanics. After a bit of fighting, Hideous Scarkril will enter stealth mode. While in Stealth, Scarkril uses a deadly teleport slash, takes heavily reduced damage, and only appears visible for short bursts.
When stealth mode begins, four golden orbs will appear around the edges of the arena, which are immune to player damage. To end Scarkril’s stealth, you must bait him into destroying the orbs. Stand near an orb, and then dodge away when the teleport slash attack begins. If you’ve positioned yourself correctly, the slash will destroy the orb. Take out all four, and Scarkril will exit stealth so you can get back to fighting.
This will be much easier if you and your team work together, with everyone moving in a group from orb to orb. Any stragglers may pull Scarkril’s aggro away from the orbs, prolonging the stealth phase.
