'''Aspidochelone's Shell Mechanics:''' | |||
*Aspidochelone now alternates between two states based on a 2,000 health threshold: inside and outside of its shell. | |||
*In-Shell State: When Aspidochelone retreats into its shell, it gains a significant regeneration effect. | |||
*To force Aspidochelone out of its shell, players must reduce its health by at least 2,000 points below the threshold it had when it entered the shell, counteracting any regeneration during this period. | |||
*Failure to force Aspidochelone out results in it automatically emerging after a set period or after a certain amount of regeneration (exact mechanics are currently debated). | |||
*Out-of-Shell State: Inflicting 2,000 damage to Aspidochelone when it's out of its shell will force it back in. | |||
*It's possible to bypass a shell phase entirely with sufficient damage in a single attack. For instance, if Aspidochelone is 500 points from retreating, a combined skillchain and magic burst dealing 3,500 damage might force it into and out of its shell in quick succession. | |||

*Failing to force Aspidochelone out of its shell more than a few times can be particularly punishing, as it brings the encounter closer to the 1-hour enrage timer. | |||
'''Developer Insights:''' | |||

This means damage above the 2,000-point threshold may not roll over into the next phase, potentially complicating players' strategies. | |||

==Historical Background== | ==Historical Background== | ||
In Medieval folklore and bestiaries, the Aspidochelone (also called the Asp-Turtle) was a gigantic combination of an asp and a turtle that lived in the ocean. It was so large, sailors would mistake it for an island. The Aspidochelone even had trees and bushes growing on its shell. The sailors would often drown when the turtle dived back in the ocean. Usually, this occurred when the sailors started a campfire on its back. It might have originated with reports of an Irish monk who traveled on the ocean or the stories about Sindbad's voyages, one of which involved Sindbad and his crew debarking on a small island, lighting some fires for cooking, the island shaking and diving beneath the waves, taking some of Sindbad's crew to watery graves and leading to Sindbad being adrift on the sea alone. He reported a creature which looked like an island, but went beneath the waves. Most medieval drawings depicted it as a large fish instead of the asp-turtle mix. Its name is derived from the Greek words "aspido" + "chelone", which mean "shield" and "turtle". The title it gives, Aspidochelone Sinker, derives from its island nature, meaning to slay the beast is to cause it (the "island") to sink. | In Medieval folklore and bestiaries, the Aspidochelone (also called the Asp-Turtle) was a gigantic combination of an asp and a turtle that lived in the ocean.

Horizon Changes
- Windows are 22~23 Hours after the last death.
- Can pop instead of Adamantoise on the 4th day up to a force pop of Aspidochelone on the 9th day.
- Windows are every 10 minutes and a force pop happens after 60 minutes
- Aquarian Abjuration: Body has a 100% drop rate, which wasn't the case in era.
- Wyrmal Abjuration: Head added to loot pool.
- Dryadic Abjuration: Feet removed from loot pool.
- Martial Abjuration: Feet removed from loot pool.
- A message is seen by people in the zone that there has been a Spawn.
Like many NMs on HorizonXI There is a Claim Shield Any action will put you on the "claim" list. once the Claim Shield falls off, a random person will be picked to win the claim.
Aspidochelone's Shell Mechanics:
- Aspidochelone now alternates between two states based on a 2,000 health threshold: inside and outside of its shell.
- In-Shell State: When Aspidochelone retreats into its shell, it gains a significant regeneration effect.
- To force Aspidochelone out of its shell, players must reduce its health by at least 2,000 points below the threshold it had when it entered the shell, counteracting any regeneration during this period.
- Failure to force Aspidochelone out results in it automatically emerging after a set period or after a certain amount of regeneration (exact mechanics are currently debated).
- Out-of-Shell State: Inflicting 2,000 damage to Aspidochelone when it's out of its shell will force it back in.
- It's possible to bypass a shell phase entirely with sufficient damage in a single attack. For instance, if Aspidochelone is 500 points from retreating, a combined skillchain and magic burst dealing 3,500 damage might force it into and out of its shell in quick succession.
Strategic Considerations:
Two main strategies have emerged:
- High Damage Approach: Aim for a 4,000 damage output in a single attack to surpass the next shell phase threshold, minimizing the health Aspidochelone regenerates.
- Timed Skillchain/Magic Burst (SC/MB): Execute a SC/MB for at least 2,000 damage just as Aspidochelone retreats into its shell to quickly force it back out.
- Failing to force Aspidochelone out of its shell more than a few times can be particularly punishing, as it brings the encounter closer to the 1-hour enrage timer.
Developer Insights:
- The server checks every 400 milliseconds to determine if a phase change should be initiated.
This means damage above the 2,000-point threshold may not roll over into the next phase, potentially complicating players' strategies.
