Queen Azumashik

The toughest fight in the map. She hits hard and things can go bad quickly when any of your teammates are below 50% health.

Drops tier 5 epic items:

• Rage Set Helmet
• Attack Set Atk% Necklace
• Health Set Hp% Ring (Best Drop)
• Critical Set Weapon

Here are the enemies you will be facing:

• Queen Azumashik (Light Element) – 160,700 Hp
• Azimanus Watcher (Light Element) 13,200 Hp -> Devourer Arakahan (Dark Element) 24,400 Hp
• Azimanus Manager (Light Element) 13,200 Hp  -> Raqix Flying Troop (Light Element) 30,200 Hp

Here are the skills of the enemy:

Queen Azumashik

Queen’s Servant (Passive) – After taking damage for the first time, attacks all enemies before hatching two eggs to summon two Devourer Arahakans. If the caster’s Health is less than 50% after taking damage, uses Death Trap before hatching two eggs to summon Raqix Flying Troop. Queen Azumashik absorbs some of the damage taken by the summoned Devourer Arahakan and Raqix Flying Troop. Raqix Flying Troop has a 30% chance to counterattack whenever Queen Azumashik takes damage. Eggs are invincible and immune before hatching.

Note: Debuff immunity and cleanse makes it easier during the opening battle.

Queen’s Terror (Passive) – Decreases the target’s Attack, Hit Chance, and Speed as the Health of enemies decreases. At the beginning of the caster’s turn, stuns targets with less than 30% Health for 1 turn.

Note: Debuff immunity really will save you on this one when under geared.

Queen’s Authority (Passive) – Grants increased Attack and Defense for 2 turns at the beginning of every turn, and grants a stackable Attack increase buff at the end of each turn. If attacked when inflicted with more than three debuffs, the caster is granted an extra turn and all debuffs are dispelled.

Note: Having someone to dispel this when Queen is under 50% will help a lot.

Hellish Cut (Active) – Decreases the target’s Attack, Hit Chance, and Speed as the Health of enemies decreases. At the beginning of the caster’s turn, stuns targets with less than 30% Health for 1 turn.

Death Trap

Death Trap (Active)[2 Turn Cooldown] – Attack all enemies, inflicting stackable Defense and Speed decreases. Damage dealt increases proportional to the caster’s lost Health. This skill can only be used when the caster’s Health is less than 50%.

Note: This hurts as the battle progresses.

Battle Tips

This is the toughest fight in the normal raid. Queen Azumashik hits hard and has a lot of mechanics you have to pay attention to compared to the other bosses. Let’s break down the various phases and mechanics:

• The battle starts with her and 4 eggs unhatched and they are invincibile
• The bottom 2 eggs are Devourer Arakahans that can stun you (hatches after you hit the Queen for the first time)
• When the Queen gets to less than 50% health, she gets an extra turn, cleanses all debuffs and uses her ultimate AoE attack on the team.
• The top 2 eggs are Raqix Flying Troops that hatch once Queen goes below 50% health
• When eggs hatch, they apply random debuffs on your entire team
• The max number of debuffs you can land on the Queen is 3. She will cleanse it and get an extra turn after that.
• Each time she attacks, she gets a 2 turn attack and defense buff, which is problematic when stacked with her stackable attack passive.

The best guardian for this fight is Arky. If you don’t have enough burst damage, he will come in handy when the Queen is under 50% health.

The first phase of the fight is when the Queen is at 100% health and the second phase starts when you get her below 50%.

Debuff immunity and cleanse are 2 key skills you need here to make your life easier. Having a strong tank that can take hits is also a bonus for survival. Attacking the 2 Devourer Arakahans will also damage the Queen. You have a few decisions to make here in terms of battle strategy:

• Go straight for the Queen and ignore the minions
• Kill the two Devourer Arakahans, then focus on the Queen
• Kill all minions and focus on the Queen

I suggest only going for the Queen if you have enough DPS to burst her down in 3-4 turns when she is below 50% hp and at the same time being able to take hits from the Devourer Arakahan’s and the counter attacks from Raqix Flying Troops.

Before attacking the Queen at the start of the battle, it is vital to have either debuff immunity or cleanse ready as the hatching of the Devourer Arakahans will apply random debuffs on your entire team.

It is a lot safer to kill the two Devourer Arakahans as they can stun you every 3 turns. It can be deadly alongside all the Queen’s attacks. Since the Queen will attack the frontline tank most of the time and dispel buffs + reducing tank’s skill cooldown by 1, it is safer to bring at least 1 other healer if you choose to use a healer as the tank. Keeping everyone above 50% health will ensure the Queen does not get any additional surprise AoE attacks.

You also have to pay attention to the Queen when she reaches 50% health. She will hatch the 2 remaining eggs and they will apply random debuffs on your entire team + use her ultimate. If you are unlucky and any of your members get the defense debuff, they will most likely take lethal damage. The Raqix Troops will counter attack that can poison if you attack the Queen.

As long as you can keep everyone above 30% health, you will avoid any of your characters getting stunned and take an additional AoE attack from a Queen basic attack. Immunity buff also stops that from happening. Having high effect resistance(50%+) will help you resist more debuffs, but it can be very random.
