*** Jaania: 'I've pushed myself this far... is it not enough?!'
*** Jaania pauses her rotation to use Attack 12 once.
** Phase 3: When Jaania falls below 33% of her maximum HP (3556), she sets her HP to 33%, purges the player of all effects, purges herself of all permanent effects (except 'Full Synch' and 'Soulwoven Durability'), and becomes immune to all damage until she acts.

*** Jaania uses Attack 13 once and resets her rotation.
=== Reactive Weave ===
* If Jaania receives a direct hit, she applies 'Reactive Weave' for 1 turn inclusive.
** +5X All (max 70).
** -5X Health (max 70).
** X is equal to the number of times Jaania has been hit, capped at 14.
=== Body Parts ===
* Jaania is made of three targetable parts: Body, Tome, and Glaive.
** Targetable: Body, Tome, Glaive.
** Currently targeted body part is represented by both a popup and effect on Jaania.
*** You are now directly targeting Jaania.
*** You are now targeting Jaania's tome. X/Y tome HP remaining.
*** You are now targeting Jaania's glaive. X/Y glaive HP remaining.
* The Tome and Glaive have HP equal to 10% of her maximum HP (1078), while the Body has no HP value.
* While the Tome or Glaive is targeted, Jaania automatically applies '<Tome/Glaive> Targeted' for 99 turns inclusive.
** +5 All.
** -5 Health.
* If the Tome or Glaive is defeated in the middle of an attack, the remainder of the hits damage the Body.

** -20 Boost.
** -20 Bonus.
=== Soulgear/Command ===
* Upon using Attacks 1, 8, or 14, Jaania creates a spinning Soulgear below herself, and declares Commands that must be fulfilled on the declared turn. Small orbs circle the gear to help keep track of the number of turns left.
** Jaania permanently applies 1 of 2 Command effects: Halt or Act.
*** Jaania: 'Halt!' (Do not deal direct damage on the turn before the gear stops ticking)
*** Jaania: 'Act!' (Deal direct damage on the turn before the gear stops ticking. (Pet damage does not count))
* At the start of Jaania's turn, the Soulgear timer counts down by 1, unless she was stunned or used a phase transition attack (Attacks 12 or 13).
* When her Soulgear timer hits 0, she pauses her rotation to use Attack 10/11.
** This turn is telegraphed by the gear floating above two sets of glyphs (1 blue, 1 yellow), with only 1 small orb circling around it.
** If her command was not followed on the previous turn, the attack gains greatly increased damage and +Bonus.
*** Halt: Jaania must not receive a direct hit.
*** Act: Jaania must receive a direct hit.
* If Jaania is stunned on the turn she would use Attack 11/12, she skips it and continues her rotation as normal.

==Strategy==
As Jaania is a complicated fight in the main story questline, a strategy section is included to help players who may be struggling. This strategy section is geared towards newer players who may not have as many tools as players in the endgame. For a more endgame-focused analysis, see Jaania (Extreme).
===Rules===
# Jaania will perform attacks in the following order:
#* Soulgear Setup -> -All -> DoT -> Stun -> Filler -> Debuff -> repeat.
#* There are 2 exceptions to this order: Phase transitions, and Soulgear attacks, which delay the normal rotation until the next turn.
# Jaania has 3 targetable body parts: the Body, the Tome, and the Glaive.
#* Jaania takes reduced damage while the Tome or Glaive are targeted, but reducing their HP to 0 can provide beneficial effects.
# When Jaania performs her Soulgear setup, she will declare either 'Command - Halt' or 'Command - Act' and a specific number of turns.
#* Once the specified number of turns is up, she pauses her rotation to use a Soulgear attack, which grows stronger if the player did not follow her command.
#** 'Command - Halt' requires the player to avoid landing a hit on Jaania (including with Pet Dragon).
#** 'Command - Act' requires the player to land a hit on Jaania (missing or glancing hits do not count).
# Jaania has 3 phases to her fight:
#* Phases 1 and 2 are normal, but at the start of phase 2 Jaania pauses her rotation to launch a powerful attack.
#* Phase 3 is more dangerous, and Jaania sets the player's HP to 1 at the beginning of the phase.
===Equipment===
This section outlines the recommended gear to bring into the fight.
* None of the gear listed here is strictly required, but every piece of gear that can be acquired will make the fight easier, and is useful should the player continue into endgame content.
* The gear in this section is some of the best to use for all content in the game, until better options are acquired from endgame challenges.
* The equipment found in this guide will not include equipment that can only be found at the Inn at the Edge of Time.
* The recommended gear for the fight is the following:
** Weapon: Ultra OmniKnight Blade or SoulForged Scythe or Blades of the Great One
** Weapon (Slot): Blade of Awe
** Helm: Hawkscry's Legacy or DragonLord Captain's Helm
** Cape: Lagohmcraft Protector or Wings of the Thousand Flames/Infernos or Wings of Eternal Light(, Reforged)
** Necklace: Tizheruk Scale or Slimy Necklace
** Belt: Ogorek's Treasure
** Ring: Flight Signet
** Trinket: Dragon's Bulwark or Dragon's Wrath or Exalted Blaster
===Strategy===
This section outlines a general strategy for defeating Jaania. The strategy is not necessarily optimal and does not need to be followed absolutely, but instead aims to provide a general guide with few moving parts.
# Recall the previous attack rotation above:
#* Soulgear Setup -> -All -> DoT -> Stun -> Filler -> Debuff -> repeat.
#* The underlined attacks are usually the most dangerous, and should be avoided whenever possible with your class's defensive options.
#** Side note: Be careful when using shields if you are affected by 'Soulpierce' or 'Soulpuppet'. Shields used during this time will be much less effective.
# For the most part, only target the Body. If you are worried about your All resistance getting too low, you can defeat the Tome to cleanse the debuff.
# When Jaania sets up her Soulgear, there will be a number of orbs circling below her. You can safely ignore this until there is only one orb circling below her. When this happens, she will use a Soulgear attack next turn.
#* Try your best to fulfill her command (don't hit her if she says 'Halt', hit her if she says 'Act'), but failing the command is fine.
#* More importantly, keep track of where you are in her rotation and where she will continue off from after the attack.
# At 66% HP, Jaania will use a highly damaging attack. Try to time your class shield or use Pet Dragon's Dragon Scales to avoid this attack.
# As Jaania gets close to 33% HP, try to make sure your healing skills are off cooldown or have a potion ready.
#* Once she uses her phase 3 attack, your HP will be set to 1. She will not attack on the next turn, so use this opportunity to heal up with a potion or healing skill.
#** Side note: Tizheruk Scale will significantly reduce your healing. Switch to Slimy Necklace here for better healing, then switch back to Tizheruk Scale on the next turn.
# Jaania will only get more difficult from here, but keep following the general strategy above and you should be able to defeat her. Good luck!
===Classes===
Players may take any class of their choice into the fight. However, certain classes may have an easier time in the fight than others. If you have no particular preference, then here are some recommended classes:
* Paladin gives you the largest margin of error, as its strong healing and defenses will keep you healthy throughout the fight.
* Technomancer offers a balance between good damage with its Tog-Drone Tracking+Event Horizon combo, and also an incredible shield in Reactive Barrier.
* DeathKnight is a great class for fighting Jaania, as it can swap to Healing Presence if its HP gets too low and focus on defense. If using DeathKnight, the Equipment section above can be ignored, as DeathKnight wants to have all of its DeathKnight Relics equipped for fights.
* Wrath DragonLord can output significant burst that will quickly drop Jaania to low health, where it can make use of its low health to burst her down once more.
