Unwaking Waters (mission)

Primary
The objective of the mission is to defeat the powerful dragon Kuunavang. It is composed of two similar stages:

Stage 1: Entering the Temple: This stage is comprised of a long trek into the whirlpool in which the Harvest Temple has sunk. The spiraling path has barriers that prevent the party from going further until Kuunavang is weakened enough. Prior to each barrier, a large group of Afflicted will emerge from it to assault the party and Kuunavang will swoop from the side to use her powerful skills. Still, with proper preparation for this confrontation, dispatching the Afflicted group while dealing damage to Kuunavang should be straight forward.

It is important not to ignore the afflicted and their Afflicted Soul Explosions. Wards and group protective skills such as Aegis or Shelter are extremely useful in making the party able to sustain the Afflicted attacks while defeating Kuunavang.

Stage 2: Defeating Kuunavang: After breaching the last barrier, a cutscene will play and then the party will be standing face to face with Kuunavang at the top of the temple. She will be called Enraged Kuunavang and presumably her attacks and power will be augmented.

It is vital to be mindful of the basics of defeating a powerful foe in this game:
 * Bring interrupts to try and prevent Kuunavang from invoking her skills. Look into the article on Kuunavang to study her skills and decide which ones you plan to interrupt and which ones (such as stances) you can't interrupt.
 * Bring armor-ignoring skills if possible as they will inflict their damage equally regardless of Kuunavang's high level.
