I wanted to offer a simple, effective, but LONG way of beating him on Heroic with no previous training whatsoever.

The stats I had when I fought him (Equipment included):
104 Vitality
55 Strength
104 Instinct
60 Speed


The skills I used:
3/3 Restore
4/4 Ice Wall
4/4 Glacier
1/4 Mind Freeze
3/4 Flash Freeze
3/3 Regulate (Not really needed, could be exchanged with Vapour Cannon)

My Action Bar:
Regulate (Can be exchanged)
Glacier
2 Mind Freezes
2 Flash Freezes
Ice wall
Restore

That makes all 8 spots.

The Strategy:

Do them in this order, don't question the method before you use it:

Stun
Glacier
Stun
Glacier
Mind Freeze
Glacier
Regulate(As I said, can be exchanged with Vapour Cannon)
Glacier
*He does the Subversive attack*
Mind Freeze
Repeat from start.

FAIL

Sorry.

Accidentally Pressed Enter...

From the explanation:

This uses his subversive attack against him, since when you do Mind Freeze, he is forced to use his melee attack which heals you.



After a while, when he has about 7k hp, he stops using it and uses harder attacks.

When he does, use this one:

Stun
Glacier
Stun
Glacier
Mind Freeze
Ice Wall
Restore
REPEAT

It takes a LONG time, but it works.

Well i do something else which i believe a little more proof of guaranteeing victory.

I use:

Vapor cannon
Vapor cannon
Mind freeze
Until mind freeze ends, vapor cannon
Then flash freeze
Vapor cannon
Flash freeze
Vapor cannon
Mind freeze....

Yeah you allow him to do unknown condition but then use mind freeze. You should have 2 flash and 2 mind freeze. Whenever you need healing, use flash and restore because if you don't allow him to attack without focus, he will do only his normal attack without decay, collapse, and shadow state.

That does work, but with my strategy, I had poor healing, so I made use of Ice Wall so:

1. I take less damage until stun finishes cooling down.
2. Restore heals me to full health.

Of course, he needs to be mind frozen for that to work perfectly. That way, I don't have to use flash to be able to restore and still keep on the fight in a steady pace.
