Prey-Isys Raid Lore:

Zadracon was the ruler of the farthest end of Tayberrs and a researcher of heat. He was respected by everyone including Prey, who always asked for his permission to enter his territory. Zadracon radiated a tremendous amount of heat.

The heat from his body spread across Tayberrs, keeping it warm and helping eggs hatch into new lives. It was said if it weren't for him, Tayberrs would've been a cold uninhabitable planet. This was proved by the winter that visited Tayberrs whenever he fell asleep. His heat even evaporated the purple rain that fell from the sky above Tayberrs, keeping the polar land safe from its damage. People flocked to his land from everywhere else, seeking refuge with him. Zadracon released as much heat as he could to protect them. It helped the refugees regain stability, but it caused him to fall asleep earlier than usual.

And while he was sleeping, a dark energy encroached upon his dreams. When he woke up from his long sleep, his feathers blazed angrily and his fiery breath released corrupt energy. Everyone cried in shock when they saw him. The new Zadracon flew high into the sky, set the polar land ablaze with his corrupt energy, and flew higher into the sky, following the voice that called him in his dreams, completely the devastation he left in his wake.

Move Set

• Tail Swing: Zadracon uses his tail to attack at close range.
• Dash: Zadracon does a front dash towards players.
• Dash + Tail Swing: Zadracon combines both moves.
• Flame Explosion: Zadracon creates flame explosions on charred spots whenever he performs a move.

• Berserk
  • Zadracon Heat Wave: Zadracon will float up into the sky and creates several small circles that'll explode on the floor for a few seconds. Then he'll do a jump attack that does a flame explosion around him at first, then slams the floor again to have the flames spreads outwards that'll deal heavy damage if players do not avoid the attack. This will make him groggy for a few seconds.

Strategy

• Zadracon of the Intercept Trio isn't as difficult compared to Kugai or Moonbow, but he often moves around a lot and each of his attack patterns tend to leave charred spots on the floor that can easily inflict  Burn (Status) if players step into those areas.
• Use hold-specific moves to stop him from using Flame Explosion.
• His attack patterns are also easily telegraphed, but do avoid stepping on the charred spots to prevent unnecessary burn damage.
• Time your jumps when he prepares the explosion part of Zadracon Heat Wave.
• Waiting for his groggy phase isn't needed, so let the Crusader/Enchantress deploy  Apocalypse/ Crux of Victoria/ Marionette and have your party use their strongest skills on Zadracon when he lands on Slenikon's back.
