How to Defeat Floor 17 Chaos Archwizard in Throne and Liberty

The first thing you’ll notice as the fight kicks off is that you have a companion with a blue magical field surrounding him. Rush to him and get inside the field as the boss spawns with an AOE attack. This immediately clarifies one thing: the blue shield and the NPC are here to protect you. Therefore, your tactics in this fight are simple; protect the Adventurer, and he protects you. 

The boss has a tracking beam attack and a blue AOE attack that you need to stay on the lookout for. The former can be dodged easily, while the latter needs perfection. Occasionally, the boss will shift his attention to the Adventurer and you will have to protect him. If the boss targets the NPC, get in front and use the perfect block to thwart the attack. The last thing you need to look out for is a deadly purple AOE attack. This attack will one-shot you and the only way to survive it is by sheltering inside the Adventurer’s blue shield. 

Keep track of the different attacks and stay close to the NPC to win the fight. You also have to keep track of the Adventurer’s HP because if he dies, you are left with no cover against the one-shot attack.
