Mechanics

Normal Attacks

Cerberus uses Melee, Magic, and Ranged. Pray Melee and tank the occasional Magic/Ranged hits.

Ghost Phase (Below 400 HP)

Three ghosts spawn: Melee (red), Ranged (green), Magic (blue). Pray in this order as they attack: Magic → Ranged → Melee. Each ghost attacks once in order. Switch prayers between each hit.
