Additional Information
- Power Level: Minimum 1780 (hard power cap is 1800, pinnacle is 1810). The raid is in contest mode for 48 hours, which means you will be kept -20 under power at any level 1780 or above.
- How to Beat Nezarec: Nezarec has the same weak points as a Tormentor, his shoulders and chest. Shooting his chest will give a debuff called Nezarac’s Hatred, drawing damage to that Guardian until it runs out, and keeping the rest of the party safe. Destroying both of Nezarac’s shoulders will cause him to briefly flash either Light or Dark.
