Considering that the Lake of Shadows boss is one of the weakest in the game, combined with how quickly Nokris retreats into his invinci-bubble, I would be very surprised if you could one phase him

hmm yeah I guess it would be all over the subreddit if it was true, guess I'll have to beat the boss legit

I think I saw something about a two phase with oppressive and wardcliff. I haven’t personally tested it yet though.

Thanks for the answers, guess I shouldn't believe everything I read lmao

We one phased it with 3 celestial shots if that counts..
But i doubt it with swords.

On Grandmaster?

On master.
We tried grandmaster but we couldn't 1 phase him because we don't have a debuff. We could try it tonight by having 1 of us use divinity and using his super to shoot him fast enough before the debuff goes away.

Ok thanks

Divinity lowers the damage of nighthawk, at least thats how it works in raids. Since you're not technically getting a critical hit when you shoot the divinity bubble.

Don’t know about swords but if anything can will need weapons, any debuff, a warmind cell with weapon buff (it stacks) then either wardcliff, Izanagi, falling guillotine. If that doesn’t then nothing.

You can’t one phase him, but you may be able to 2 phase with Wardcliff, Bubble and Oppressive Darkness

It's cool we managed it on GM legit by being smart with supers in the end

gonna try to gm nokris this week. what was your team's loadouts/supers for the 1-phase?

I'm reasonably sure that one-phasing Nokris will break the encounter and make the Strike impossible to complete.
Was this fixed?
As of a few weeks ago, he is still very insta-melt-able with Wardcliff.
Wait so is there some trick to it or do we just spam wardy at the cunt and hope for the best?
It's usually on Heavyweight days, honestly. But yeah, 3 Wardcliffs usually just drops him.
With proper buffs/debuffs you may be able to do it without HW.
You can do it on non heavyweight, oppressive and a quick wardcliff burst from 3 people insta melts him and you get the chest and rewards free(ish)
Don’t you need Arc Singe for that to work
