Castorice is the best DPS to use against the Avatar of the Sky since all enemies have a Quantum Weakness. She can also take advantage of the environment effects and Max HP buff in the third phase.

For her allies, use Trailblazer (Ice) for the True DMG buffs for both her and her Memosprite. Tribbie will help deal more damage to the Avatar of the Sky as long as Castorice hits all enemies.

How to Beat Aquila Boss Fight

Defeat the Daythunder Ravens to Reduce the Environment

Even after healing her with Hyacine it wasn't enough and she dies. Honestly, I thought it's supposed to be like that and I have to lose for the plot to move and such. But when Hyacine was the last one standing and nothing happened I was like "Oh". It's literally the 1st boss I had to use simple mode for. I was staring at the screen, hearing the same cutscene with Hyacine and Phainon again and again, thinking I was going insane

I went into TBQ, feeling hopeful, after somehow defeating Pollux with a team of Jingliu, Blade, Sunday and Huo Huo on 1st try on normal mode. I was somewhat familiar with it from farming it for Hysilens and actually had a, what I thought, was a more or less decent team - Jade, Therta, Robin and story Hyacine. I was debating between Jade and smol Herta, but decided Hyacine's healing is enough to compensate for Jade's debt collector First turn, this victim of abortion almost kills Therta
