Hyvatia is one of the more mechanically demanding bosses you face in the Lahai-Roi region.

With the right preparation and understanding of its mechanics, you can turn a punishing battle into a controlled clear.

You first encounter Hyvatia during the main story progression in the Starward Riseway of the Lahai-Roi region, specifically tied to the What Burns Beneath Frostlands storyline. After completing this story segment, Hyvatia becomes available as a repeatable world boss in the same area, allowing you to farm its Echo and materials using Waveplates.

Understanding Hyvatia’s combat phases

Phase 1 focuses on lasers and parry windows

In the opening phase, Hyvatia remains mostly grounded and relies on controlled but punishing attacks.

Common mechanics you will see:

  • Wide horizontal laser sweeps that force precise dodge timing
  • Charged core attacks that create clear Vibration indicators
  • Short vulnerability windows after failed attacks

This phase heavily rewards aggressive but disciplined play. Breaking Hyvatia’s Vibration gauge at the right time will stagger the boss, letting you unload skills and Resonance Liberations safely.

Phase 2 shifts the fight into the air

At around half health, Hyvatia transitions into its aerial configuration, significantly changing the pace of the fight.

New threats include:

  • Continuous airborne Spectro projectiles
  • Expanding gravity vortex attacks that pull you inward
  • Reduced melee uptime due to elevation

During this phase, overcommitting to melee attacks often leads to unnecessary damage. Ranged characters, Echo skills, and quick swap rotations become much more valuable.

How to defeat Hyvatia step by step

Step 1: Open with safe damage and observe patterns

Start the fight by maintaining medium distance and watching how Hyvatia chains its laser attacks. Avoid rushing damage until you clearly recognize the timing.

Step 2: Break Vibration during charge attacks

When Hyvatia’s core glows and it pauses briefly, commit to Vibration damage. Successfully breaking it creates the longest and safest DPS window of the fight.

Step 3: Save major cooldowns for staggers

Hold your Resonance Liberation and strongest skills until Hyvatia is staggered. This maximizes damage and avoids wasting cooldowns during invulnerable movement.

Step 4: Reposition early in Phase 2

As soon as Hyvatia takes flight, reposition to the outer edges of the arena. This gives you more time to react to projectile patterns and vortex pulls.

Step 5: Maintain ranged pressure and quick swaps

Use ranged Basic Attacks, Intro Skills, and Echo summons while rotating characters frequently. This keeps damage consistent without overexposing a single unit.

Hyvatia’s final attacks can overlap rapidly. Focus on survival first, chip away safely, and close out the fight once patterns slow.
