Grand Aelon – Interactive Map Location – Here
Location: Grand Aelon can be encountered in two ways:
- Open World: Located on the eastern edge of Purelight Hill, north of the Purelight Hill Waypoint or a short flight southeast from the Purelight Tower Waypoint.
- Guild Hall: If your guild level is 17 or higher, Grand Aelon can also be summoned in your Guild Hall.
Fighting Zone Advantage
The boss arena is surrounded by trees, providing a strategic vantage point for ranged players who can snipe enemies from above during PvP.
Grand Aelon Boss Mechanics
Grand Aelon, one of the tankiest bosses in Throne & Liberty, requires good coordination to handle his powerful abilities. Here’s a breakdown of his mechanics:
Fury Attack
- Indicator: This attack is marked by a purple indicator.
- Effect: Grand Aelon releases a green shockwave throughout the arena, damaging everyone within range.
- Strategy: Block the attack when the purple indicator appears to mitigate incoming damage. The indicator is relatively slow, making it easier to anticipate and block.
Thorn Cone
- Indicator: Grand Aelon raises his hands before delivering the attack.
- Effect: A cone-shaped line of thorns emerges from Grand Aelon and extends toward the arena’s edge.
- Strategy: Sidestep the thorns if they’re directed toward you. The damage from Thorn Cone is minimal, so it’s a manageable mechanic if you stay alert.
Thorny Prison
- Effect: Grand Aelon traps random players in thorn cages that apply damage over time. The caged players cannot escape without assistance and will eventually perish if not freed.
- Strategy:
- Rescue Quickly: Teammates must destroy the thorn cages to free trapped players as fast as possible.
- Avoid Grouping: If you notice a green AoE circle beneath you, move away from other players to avoid trapping them alongside you.
Strategy for Defeating Grand Aelon
To succeed in this fight, your guild should stay attentive and organized. Follow these key strategies for each phase:
Kiting and Blocking
- Positioning: Players should stay spread out across the arena to avoid getting trapped together.
- Block Fury Attacks: Assign players to block each Fury Attack and practice timing your blocks to prevent team-wide damage.
Coordinated Damage Output
- Free Caged Players Promptly: As soon as Thorny Prisons appear, all available players should switch to attacking the cages to free teammates immediately.
- Focus on DPS: Grand Aelon has high health and defense, so consistent DPS is essential. Make sure ranged players utilize the elevated trees for additional PvP protection and uninterrupted damage output.
