Enhanced Ahzrak Boss Guide and How to Beat
Performing a perfect dodge boosts the finisher meter or supercharge any weapon that the Atlan mech is using. Try to consistently dodge green attacks to always have a significant increase in damage.
Getting hit by enemies will reset the Atlan's finisher meter.
It is recommended to always fill up the Atlan's finisher meter to 3 bars to use the Siege Breaker finisher. Using this on any Titan enemy will kill them instantly, while using it on The Old One will deal massive damage.
