== Walkthrough ==
=== Main mechanics ===
{{main|Lextalion the Merciless#Combat abilities}}

[[Lextalion the Merciless|Lextalion]] has many similar mechanics to [[Gorseval the Multifarious]] in the [[Spirit Vale]] raid wing. His two main avoidable mechanics are a shockwave and a signature rampage.
* '''Haunting Echo:''' The shockwave occurs after three telegraph rings (the shockwave occurs on the fourth), and must be jumped over to be avoided.
* '''Ghastly Rampage:''' Periodically, he will teleport and begin rampaging, leaving behind an expanding black ring. Getting hit by this ring will lift the player into the air temporarily.

Periodically, he will select random players and teleport them far away inside a [[Harrowing Prison]]. When this happens, the prison will also spawn an [[Enraged Spirit (elite)|Enraged Spirit]] or [[Angered Spirit (elite)|Angered Spirit]]. Players should focus on killing these adds as soon as possible.

Standing in damaging fields will inflict players with {{effect|Malefic Darkness}} indicated by a ghost above their heads. This debuff reduces maximum HP by 25% and makes Lextalion's attacks more dangerous. It can be removed by walking into a [[Beneficent Light]].
[[File:Titanic Voyage Pool of Light.png|thumb|Look for Beneficent Light when have debuff during event.]]

=== Defiance check ===

At 75%, 50%, and 25%, Lextalion will initiate a mandatory [[defiance bar]] (CC) mechanic. If this check is not made, he will instantly kill all nearby players. During this time, Lextalion is immune to damage through {{effect|Protective Shadow (Lextalion)|Protective Shadow}}.

If any Enraged Spirit or Angered Spirit remain alive when this mechanic starts, Lextalion will consume them and receive a 15% resistance to defiance '''per spirit consumed''' through {{effect|Shielding Fusion}}. For this reason, it is imperative that the spirits are slain before the boss reaches the aforementioned health thresholds.

Purchasing [[Electromagical Pulse 2.0|Electromagical Pulse]] from a [[United Legions Waystation]] is recommended to help meet CC requirements.

;Event beginning
:'''Lextalion the Merciless:''' ''The [[Bloodstone|keystone]] shard cracked. We were set free, but unavenged! Why were we forgotten here?''
:'''Bengt Tovasson:''' ''[[Raven (Spirit of the Wild)|Raven]]'s waul! What manner of [[titan]] is that?''
:'''Lextalion the Merciless:''' ''We are no titan, fool! They spit on us.''
:'''Lextalion the Merciless:''' ''Their souls were tempered, [[Foundry of Failed Creations|forged in wicked flame]], but we... This is the form of our vengeance!''
:'''If the player has defeated [[Gorseval the Multifarious]]:'''
::'''<Character name>:''' ''It's just like [[Gorseval the Multifarious|Gorseval]].''
:'''Councillor Ludo:''' ''I don't care what you are. You're in our way!''
:'''Bengt Tovasson:''' ''[[Magic]] is cascading from it! Avoid those shockwaves however you can!''

;During Keystone's Vengeance defiance check (one of the following)
:'''Councillor Ludo:''' ''It's pooling energy. Stop it!''
:'''Bengt Tovasson:''' ''Stun it before its power is unleashed!''
:'''Livia:''' ''It's gathering strength. Hit it hard now!''

;If failing to kill the spirits (one of the following)
:'''Councillor Ludo:''' ''Those ghosts empowered it; we'll need to hit it harder!''
:'''Bengt Tovasson:''' ''It'll be more difficult to kill after eating those ghosts.''

;Event success
:'''Bengt Tovasson:''' ''Go, spirits. Suffer this place no longer.''
:'''Livia:''' ''Were we as lucky.''
:'''Bengt Tovasson:''' ''Oh, I don't know. My [[Novice Bengtsson|son]] will envy the tales I tell of this fight.''

:'''Councillor Ludo:''' ''Livia are you...?''
:'''Livia:''' ''I... I'm fine. From here, we split our forces three ways.''
:'''Livia:''' ''[[Arcane Council|Councillor]], you'll take the southern route. [[Mesmer Collective|Fourth Veil]], the northern passage. Which leaves the center to me.''
:'''Livia:''' ''The [[Astral Ward|ward]] have identified defensive barriers blocking our access to the [[Saevus Saxum|titan]]'s organs; we can expect heavy resistance.''
:'''Councillor Ludo:''' ''And that is why I procured some heavy firepower, courtesy of [[Empress Ihn]]. [[Warclaw]]s should come in handy, too.''
:'''Bengt Tovasson:''' ''And our comms are tuned, yes? [[Tyrian Alliance|Alliance]] command told me not to futz with mine.''
:'''Livia:''' ''Correct. We'll keep in touch and adjust support according as we push further in.''
:'''Livia:''' ''Let's move out.''

[[Lextalion the Merciless]] is a soul construct, similar to [[Gorseval the Multifarious]].<ref>[[Scholar Glenna (Mount Balrior)]]
:'''<Character name>:''' Not the first soul construct we've seen, yeah?
:'''Scholar Glenna:''' Oh! Right! Gorseval.

:'''<Character name>:''' It's just like Gorseval.</ref> Unlike other soul constructs, such as the [[titan]]s forged in the [[Foundry of Failed Creations]], Lextalion and Gorseval were formed naturally from vengeful souls, in Lextalion's case the souls of unworthy [[mursaat]] of [[Bava Nisos]] and the mursaat's victims whom [[Manikaz]] had sacrificed to the [[Bloodstone|keystone]] on [[Mercia]]'s orders.<ref>[[Bloodstone Book]]</ref><ref>[[Bloodstone Letter]]</ref><ref>[[Journal Fragment]]</ref>
