Yatoya's Axkva Min - Tip Guide

Why a tip guide and not a step by step guide of how to. There is already the SWG WIKI which provides that information, along with other servers that copy and paste the exact same information. You can easily find such information by typing "swg exar kun" in a search engine like Google.

The following video was performed on SWG Evolve server, what you experience on SWG Evolve may be different then what you may experience on a generic new game enhancements (NGE) server.

Character used Yatoya's Rifleman/Assassin Build.


Phase 1: Nandina and Gorvo (Intro-1:50)
In this phase you battle the Nightsister Nandina and Gorvo the mutated rancor. Gorvo must die first or the phase will reset. If you hurt Nandina more past 1/2 her health, Gorvo starts receiving damage. Nandina will also try to heal Gorvo periodically.

Tips: Phase 1
1. Don't over DPS Nandina or the phase will reset.
2. Some players have found it beneficial to use a healing debuff on Nandina so she heals less damage on Gorvo.



Phase 2: Lelli Hi (2:00-3:07)
Once Lelli Hi is released from her prison you can attack her. She can cloak and place what is described as Flashbang mines (they stun).

Tips: Phase 2
1. Some players benefit from turning on all object names to see the mines in order to avoid them.
2. It's easy to avoid the mines by knowing when she places them, she places them shortly after cloaking, at this time run away from where you were standing.



Phase 3: Kimaru (3:20-4:47)
Once Kimaru is released from her prison you can attack her. This phase used to wipe out entire teams on Live. She has 2 high damaging attacks, one is lightning orbs that chase you, second is fire blooms on the floor. With decent healing the lightning orbs are of less concern. The fire blooms on the other can stack in one location and cause significant damage if you remain still.

Tips: Phase 3
1. Some players benefit from turning on all object names to see the lightning orbs and fire blooms in order to avoid them.
2. Keep moving around, use auto targeting and auto attack, focus on avoiding damage from the lightning orbs and fire blooms.



Phase 4: Suin Chalo (4:58-6:45)
Once Suin Chalo is released from her prison you can attack her. She creates clones of herself, these clones if not dealt with can deal significant amount of damage, each clone can only be damaged by a specific element. In the video I choose to ignore the clones and focus on just Suin Chalo, I started taking to much damage and started running around the room.

Tips: Phase 4
1. Bring a weapon with each element type, otherwise the clones will continue attacking you for the final phase with Axkva Min.



Phase 5: Axkva Min (7:47-End)
After Suin Chalo from Phase 4 is down Axkva Min starts her mono log. With decent tanking and healing Axkva Min standard attack is of little concern. On the other hand the Crystal Prison and Gas is of concern. Crystal Prison prevents movement. The Gas deals high damage that can wipe out an entire team if they are all gassed, so it can be beneficial to keep moving.

Tips: Phase 5
1. Space yourself from other players in the group so that if you do get gassed the whole team doesn't die.
2. If you are in the crystal prison you can attack the crystal to break out.
3. Do not fear death, if you team is still alive don't clone you still will get credit for the heroic.
4. If the team does die, simply return and try again, you lose no buffs from death on SWG Evolve.
