The Breaker of Worlds Hunt Guide - Final Fantasy 16
As we briefly mentioned in a previous hunt guide (Dozmare), Final Fantasy 16 isn’t always forthcoming about information. Sometimes a hunt, especially the higher ranking marks, wants you to read between the lines a little and do some actual hunting. One such hunt is The Breaker of Worlds, which is later revealed to be Atlas. This is one of Final Fantasy 16’s S-Rank hunts, and is crucial to crafting the Gotterdammerung weapon. Here’s what you need to know.
The only hint you get for the Breaker of Worlds hunt is that “due to the discovery of a Fallen giant in the Rosarian Ruins,” all work in the area has been put on hold. And if you recall, Rosaria has little bits and pieces of ruins all over it. So if you want to skip the exploration and just have the location spelled out for you, we got you.

Hunts are considered pieces of side content, but they are worth completing, especially if players desire the protagonist Clive to be overpowered near the end of Final Fantasy 16.

The hunts in Final Fantasy 16 are separated into different ranks according to their difficulty and overall level. The Breaker of Worlds hunt, which sees players chasing down Atlas in FF16, is considered an S-Rank, which is the highest possible one available.

Both Golden Section and Saber Dance are special attacks where the Breaker of Worlds swings a huge energy sword. This sword will damage a very large area around it. It's possible but very hard to avoid these attacks by running away.
To avoid taking damage, ready yourself when Atlas summons its huge energy sword, then dodge at the right time or use Titanic Block when Atlas swings.
During Atlas's Celestial Sphere special attack, a ring of glowing circles will appear on the ground, and after a delay, energy beams will fall towards these circles. The delay is long enough that you can simply run in
