</nowiki><p><strong><nowiki>Mechanic:</nowiki></strong></p><br />
<nowiki><br />
</nowiki><p><nowiki>⬥ A large gas cloud spawns, dealing rapid typeless damage and binding you if stood in for too long</nowiki></p><br />
<nowiki><br />
</nowiki><p><nowiki>⬥ In Hard Mode, 6 mushrooms release gas clouds at once, making the safe movement area smaller</nowiki></p><br />
<nowiki><br />
</nowiki><p><nowiki></nowiki></p><br />
<nowiki><br />
</nowiki><p><strong><nowiki>Solution:</nowiki></strong></p><br />
<nowiki><br />
</nowiki><p><nowiki>⬥ Move out of the gas</nowiki></p><br />
<nowiki><br />
</nowiki><p><nowiki>⬥ Stand near the edge of mushrooms to reduce the distance needed to move</nowiki></p><br />
<nowiki><br />
</nowiki><p><nowiki>⬥ If bound, do </nowiki><strong><nowiki>not</nowiki></strong><nowiki> use Freedom </nowiki>[https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/535541258240786434.png?v=1 <nowiki>freedom</nowiki>]<nowiki>, as you want this saved for </nowiki><em><nowiki>Frenzy</nowiki></em></p><br />

<nowiki><br />
</nowiki><p><strong><nowiki>Mechanic:</nowiki></strong></p><br />
<nowiki><br />
</nowiki><p><nowiki>⬥ Helwyr stands up, dealing a large Melee attack in a frontal cone and applying a bleed </nowiki>[https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/535532879376023572.png?v=1 <nowiki>dismember</nowiki>]<nowiki> on you</nowiki></p><br />
<nowiki><br />
</nowiki><p><nowiki>⬥ In Hard Mode, this can hit up to around 7,000 damage, disables protection prayers, and applies a typeless bleed</nowiki></p><br />
<nowiki><br />
</nowiki><p><nowiki></nowiki></p><br />
<nowiki><br />
</nowiki><p><strong><nowiki>Solution:</nowiki></strong></p><br />
<nowiki><br />
</nowiki><p><nowiki>⬥ Step out of the damage cone </nowiki><strong><nowiki>or</nowiki></strong></p><br />
<nowiki><br />
</nowiki><p><nowiki>⬥ Use Disruption Shield </nowiki>[https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/535614336207552523.png?v=1 <nowiki>disrupt</nowiki>]<nowiki> to block the hit </nowiki><strong><nowiki>or</nowiki></strong></p><br />
<nowiki><br />
</nowiki><p><nowiki>⬥ Use Resonance </nowiki>[https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/535541258844635148.png?v=1 <nowiki>res</nowiki>]<nowiki> to heal from the hit</nowiki></p><br />
<nowiki><br />

<nowiki><br />
</nowiki><p><nowiki>⬥ Do </nowiki><strong><nowiki>not</nowiki></strong><nowiki> use Freedom </nowiki>[https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/535541258240786434.png?v=1 <nowiki>freedom</nowiki>]<nowiki> to clear the bleed, as you want this saved for </nowiki><em><nowiki>Frenzy</nowiki></em></p><br />

<nowiki><br />
</nowiki><p><strong><nowiki>Mechanic:</nowiki></strong></p><br />
<nowiki><br />
</nowiki><p><nowiki>⬥ Helwyr spins and leaps around, dealing rapid Melee hits, with each hit reapplying a bleed </nowiki>[https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/535532879376023572.png?v=1 <nowiki>dismember</nowiki>]<nowiki> on you</nowiki></p><br />
<nowiki><br />
</nowiki><p><nowiki>⬥ In Hard Mode, this damage is more punishing, especially if several bleed stacks are left active</nowiki></p><br />
<nowiki><br />
</nowiki><p><nowiki></nowiki></p><br />
<nowiki><br />
</nowiki><p><strong><nowiki>Solution:</nowiki></strong></p><br />
<nowiki><br />
</nowiki><p><nowiki>⬥ Use Devotion </nowiki>[https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/513190158728953857.png?v=1 <nowiki>devo</nowiki>]<nowiki> + pray against Melee </nowiki>[https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/544195488447201300.png?v=1 <nowiki>deflectmelee</nowiki>]<nowiki> to fully negate the damage</nowiki></p><br />
<nowiki><br />
</nowiki><p><nowiki>⬥ Debilitate </nowiki>[https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/535541278264393729.png?v=1 <nowiki>debil</nowiki>]<nowiki> can be used if Devotion is unavailable</nowiki></p><br />

<nowiki><br />
</nowiki><p><nowiki>⬥ With Melee </nowiki>[https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/1096130867279171706.png?v=1 <nowiki>melee</nowiki>]<nowiki>, it is usually better to stay in range and continue attacking</nowiki></p><br />
<nowiki><br />
</nowiki><p><nowiki>⬥ Use Freedom </nowiki>[https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/535541258240786434.png?v=1 <nowiki>freedom</nowiki>]<nowiki> after Frenzy ends to clear the bleed</nowiki></p><br />

</nowiki><p><strong><nowiki>Mechanic:</nowiki></strong></p><br />
<nowiki><br />
</nowiki><p><nowiki>⬥ Two Cywir Alphas are summoned to fight alongside Helwyr</nowiki></p><br />

</nowiki><p><nowiki>⬥ In Normal Mode, they have around 3,000 LP each</nowiki></p><br />
<nowiki><br />
</nowiki><p><nowiki>⬥ In Hard Mode, they have around 5,000 LP each</nowiki></p><br />
<nowiki><br />
</nowiki><p><nowiki></nowiki></p><br />
<nowiki><br />
</nowiki><p><strong><nowiki>Solution:</nowiki></strong></p><br />
<nowiki><br />
</nowiki><p><nowiki>⬥ Kill them using AoE abilities </nowiki><strong><nowiki>or</nowiki></strong></p><br />
<nowiki><br />
</nowiki><p><nowiki>⬥ Ignore them if you are comfortable with the extra damage</nowiki></p><br />

<nowiki><br />
</nowiki><p><strong><nowiki>Mechanic:</nowiki></strong></p><br />
<nowiki><br />
</nowiki><p><nowiki>⬥ Helwyr blows up rows of mushrooms, dealing heavy typeless AoE damage per mushroom. One row is safe at a time, starting from the north and moving south after each explosion</nowiki></p><br />
<nowiki><br />
</nowiki><p><nowiki>⬥ This mechanic has no text or animation cue, but starts at around 00:50 kill time</nowiki></p><br />
<nowiki><br />
</nowiki><p><nowiki></nowiki></p><br />
<nowiki><br />
</nowiki><p><strong><nowiki>Solution:</nowiki></strong></p><br />
<nowiki><br />
</nowiki><p><nowiki>⬥ Move from north to south with the safe row</nowiki></p><br />
<nowiki><br />
</nowiki><p><nowiki>⬥ Avoid active mushroom gas clouds while moving</nowiki></p><br />
<nowiki><br />
</nowiki><p><nowiki>⬥ Use Dive </nowiki>[https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/1049378668197195808.png?v=1 <nowiki>dive</nowiki>]<nowiki> and Surge </nowiki>[https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/535533810004262912.png?v=1 <nowiki>surge</nowiki>]<nowiki> to reposition safely</nowiki></p><br />
<nowiki><br />
</nowiki><p><nowiki>⬥ Avoid standing near exploding mushrooms, as each explosion can deal around 5,500-6,000 typeless damage</nowiki></p><br />
