Liadri the Concealing Dark
Liadri
Liadri the Concealing Dark is a human from the Mire Sea and a participant in the Queen's Gauntlet. She is fascinated by darkness and cosmic spells and her fighting style is to hide in the shadows, and then unleash its power.
Liadri is protected by 3 stacks of the Shrouded by Darkness effect, making her invulnerable while she periodically summons an AoE attack that covers a quadrant of the arena and inflicts massive damage. Because the attack hits all at once, it can be dodged entirely without having to get out of the danger zone if timed properly.
Cosmic Rifts also spawn, often in this attack's effect range, and will pull and knock down the player. The rifts can be destroyed fairly easily, but one spawns immediately upon entering the arena, as does the AoE attack. Liadri also summons slow-moving dark clones of herself called Visions of Mortality. They won't attack but will down the player instantly if they get close. The Visions can also be dispatched instantly by leading them into whirlpools of light that appear on the floor.
When a Vision enters a whirlpool, both disappear and an Orb of Blazing Light appears at the same location. Picking it up and targeting Liadri with the skill it gives will remove a stack of the invulnerable effect.
After Liadri's protection is gone she will take damage, but she becomes mobile. She will alternate between a ranged attack that weakens and a close-ranged lash/whip attack that cripples. Her Visions and Cosmic Rifts must still be avoided, as must her AoE attacks, which cover two opposite quadrants now.

Strategy[править]
It it highly recommended to vanquish the first 3 Visions of Mortality you come across to ensure the maximum amount of time available to defeat Liadri. She does not have much health, but due to the nature of the fight, opportunities to attack may be few and far between. It has been noted that the spawn location for Visions of Mortality, Cosmic Rifts, AOE attacks, and whirlpools occur at the same location and at the same time for each instance of the fight. This makes it very easy to defeat the first 3 Visions of Mortality you come across, as you will know where they spawn and where the AOE will be.
Evasion is the key to this fight. The most effective way to evade the AoE is to dodge-roll right before it strikes. For this reason, Sigils of Energy and skills that grant swiftness or vigor are advised. Stability may be necessary to avoid getting pulled into the AoE by the Cosmic Rifts.
The basic staff attack for the guardian is noted as a good way to destroy the Cosmic Rifts because of its targetless AoE cone aspect. The staff also grants swiftness and a power/heal skill that helps with evasion and damage.
