Introduction

This guide assumes a very strong understanding of everything found in Telos Basic, Stuns And Mechanics and P5 Movement And Timing.

​

This guide assumes 250%+ and works best at 1000%+, but these rotations still work below 250% with some tweaks. Adjust accordingly from there - below 250%, these rotations can be loosely followed but after that, you definitely want to make sure you follow them.

​

Notable Enrage Checkpoints and Changes past 999%

⬥ 1000%: P4 one rock will fall, P5 multiple rocks will fall, immortality no longer works P5, and Telos will freedom stuns and binds with a 16 tick cooldown

⬥ 2700%: Tendrils damage required caps at 30,000
