Confront the Architect of Ruin

Confront the Architect of Ruin in Sword of the Sea. Use Gust Dash and Ground Pound in Phase 1, and Hydr abilities in Phase 2, to counter its elemental attacks.

The final boss, the Architect of Ruin, awaits at the very core of the Desolation. This multi-phase encounter will test every skill you've learned. The Architect manipulates all four elements, summoning aspects of the previous guardians. In Phase 1, it will use wind and earth attacks; use Gust Dash to dodge and Ground Pound to stun. In Phase 2, it will incorporate water and light attacks; use Hydro-Blast for ranged damage and Light Barrier for defense. Its ultimate weakness is its exposed 'Heart of Desolation' core, which only becomes vulnerable after it unleashes a devastating, full-elemental attack. You must use a combination of all four Relic Abilities to counter its attacks and create an opening. The fight is a marathon, requiring patience, precise execution, and strategic use of your Momentum Gauge. Defeating the Architect will trigger the game's ending sequence.
