Kakul-Saydon Gate 2 Legion Raid Guide

Last Updated:August 4, 2024

Gate 2 focuses on an encounter with Kakul who is Saydon's sidekick. Throughout the fight, Saydon will be in the background assisting Kakul with patterns. Saydon's patterns have the ability to knock you off the board just like in Valtan. Also while not intended, you can cheese one of Saydon's patterns by using screenshare.

Raid Mechanics

Raid mechanics cover the passive mechanics that are persistent through the entire raid.

Madness Meter
Arena

The Madness Meter is a bar shown under each player's character. It fills up when hit by Kakul-Saydon's attacks.

Depending on which percentage your bar is, certain events occur.
0% = Nothing.
50% = Upon hitting 50%, a cross laser will shoot our from you. These can hit teammates and fill up their meter. Any pattern that hits you while you have over 50% meter will cause the cross laser to shoot out.
At 100% = You get turned into the clown's puppet. The boss gains an armor buff, reducing damage taken by 3% per stack. You gain access to 3 skills, Q, W, and E, detailed below.

50% Laser
Puppet Q
Puppet W + E

When you get turned into a puppet, Saydon will receive an armor buff. Using Q in Gate 2 will debuff the target. During Gate 3 when you want to intentionally turn into a puppet, you use it on the flame tower summon.

W

  • Reduces Madness Meter for party members within the area around the user.
  • Party members not within the area have their Madness Meter slightly increased.

E

  • Throws a gift box on the ground. Whoever takes it has their Madness Meter reduced.

Description

  • Similar to Valtan's arena, any skill used by the Giant Saydon in the "dealer" position of the blackjack table has the potential to knock you off the map.

  4. Saydon appears in the "dealer" position of the playing board.
  5. Be careful of patterns used by Saydon. They have the potential to knock you off the map. Refer below for those patterns.

Telegraph

  1. Occurs at or near 110 bars of health.
  2. Vanishes and appears in the middle of the Blackjack table.

Description

  1. Saydon uses the Gaze pattern after Kakul appears in the middle. Make sure to face away from the Gaze.
  2. 4 red and/or blue circles appear on the table, 2 on each side.

What To Do

  1. Assign party members 1 and 2 to the left side, 3 and 4 to the right side.

  3. If one of the two circles on one side is red, both players on that side must stand in that red circle.

Telegraph

  1. Occurs at or near 95 and 30 bars of health.
  2. Starts poking a voodoo doll with pins. Kakul disappears.

Description

  1. 7 playing cards appear on the table. Kakul is hiding under one of these cards.
  2. A player will have a target over their head. Saydon will use their hammer on whoever has the target over their head.
  3. When the hammer hits the board, the card underneath the hammer will flip along with the card to the left and right of it. From that you will determine whether Kakul is hiding under one of the 3 flipped cards.
  4. The goal is to have Saydon hit the card Kakul is hiding under. You have 3 chances to find Kakul before a team wipe.

What To Do (Card # read left to right)

  1. Narrow down all possibilities by first standing on Card #2 or #6. If Kakul is under of the side cards, simply target that card next.
  2. If Kakul is not under the first 3, target the other Card # from above, either #2 or #6.
  3. If Kakul still has not been found from the 6 flipped cards above, then the only position remaining is #4. Use your last chance on #4 to complete this mechanic.

Telegraph

  2. Player who destroys the puppet will be the "eyes" and will be able to see the whole map.
  3. The other 3 players will gain a suit/symbol with different colors above their heads.
  4. These players must kill 3 puppet soldiers on the map of the same suit/symbol. After a short duration, a suit/symbol will then appear on a position in the map. All 3 players must reach these positions to complete the mechanic.

What To Do

  1. Easy Way: Use discord. The "eyes" player will screen share. The other 3 players will immediately know where to find their suit/symbol.
  2. Intended Way: The "eyes" player will tell each player where to go by indicating how many rows/columns to move up, down, left, or right.

Telegraph

  1. Occurs at or near 55 bars of health. Vanishes and appears in the middle of the map.

Description

  2. These stars will rotate clockwise (right) or counterclockwise (left). They rotate briefly before disappearing and a new set of stars rotate. 3 sets of stars rotate.
  3. Each rotation tells you which direction you should move for the following pizza mechanic.
  4. 3 full rotation of pizzas occur, 1 star rotation per pizza rotation.

What To Do

  1. Move left or right depending on the star rotation.
  2. On the last rotation, complete the pizza partially before moving out of the AoE.
  3. Use Innana if your party members consistently get hit by the pizza.
