Boss attacks

• mourner - A damage buff that stacks indefinitely when the target is Shocked.

The second phase

• Hypnosis – Kafka enters two targets into the Hypnosis state and adds Revelation to the action track, which during its turn changes the state of Hypnosis to Subjugation with all the consequences, as in the first phase.
• mourner - Kafka's damage buff will continue to accumulate based on stacks from the previous phase.

The third phase

• Hypnosis – the same ability as in the second phase, but now the Hypnosis status immediately applies to three goals.

Tactic

• Prepare your superpowers: It's better to start phases 1 and 3 of the battle with fully prepared ultimate skills in order to end the battle as quickly as possible.
• Remove weaknesses promptly: The main problems come from Hypnosis and Dominate debuffs, so it is important to use every opportunity to remove these negative statuses, which will greatly help the choice of the path of Abundance (formation of the resonance of "Annich"; blessing "Salvation from Curse") and the ability of s (Armor, as well as skills March 7, Natasha and Lochi after pumping traces).
• Exploit vulnerabilities: The more heroes in the squad that can break through Kafka's vulnerability, the better, because breaking through will delay the use of her most annoying skills - buffs and debuffs.
• Beware of buff stacking: Kafka's infinite increase in attack power with the skill "Grieving" will easily lead any squad to death, so it is necessary to destroy the final boss as soon as possible, which can be helped by choosing the path of the Hunt (formation of the resonance "Bow and arrows"), as well as pumped characters of this paths (Zele, Dan Heng and Sushan).

If Kafka is still destroying the Pathfinder squad too quickly, then it’s worth taking time to pump light cones characters.
