Here is a guide explaining how to kill Istina
To enter inside boss instance you need a command channel with minimum 5 players and maximum 21 players lvl 90 or more.
The party formation need a basic setup:
1xTank, 1x Heal, 1x ISS, 4x random DD's.
Entrance:
Before enter in boss, talk to NPC and pick the item "Control Device". Put this item on skill bar. Tank class don't need this item.
After enter let buffs up, if is the first time in battle, pick the quest in NPC.
When buff round end, move to boss area, start the attack only when all players are inside boss zone. Tank aggro then and let's fight. Use Battle Raphsody every time*. Obvious, check noblesse.
Fight:
During the battle Istina will say lot's of key words, this will identify the boss skills.
She will use color names in skills, green, blue and red: “Istina soul stone start’s powerfully illuminatin in Green/Blue/Red” . When she say "Green" move to the center of zone, blue stay at middle and red stay at outside.
The secret is fight every time at "blue" zone, in this zone the group can fast move green or red.
With 60% or higher HP boss will use only reflect magic “Istina spreads reflection protective sheet”, in this time, Healer can use Celestial Party Protection skill and the group can continue the attack. If healer celestial is in cooldown, stop attack the boss for 7 seconds.
During the fight random purple circles will appear near members, in this area a magic attack of boss will occurs, just move out of this circle to evade this attack.
With 59% or lower HP boss will be strong. Healer celestial party now will be used in another skill of boss, no more in reflect. When she say “Powerfull acid energy is erupting from Istna’s body” use celestial party protecton, during reflect just stop hit the boss and continue after 7 seconds. If celestial is not up, just run like a crazy human, try move to far of boss and purple circles.
Istina will use a rage skill: “Istina gets furious and recklessly crazy”, at this time players need use the control device in boss. At least 6 devices need to cancel boss skill. When skill is canceled the message of buff disable will apear in the center of screen. In this time caster’s of control device can press “esc” key to stop the cast and continue the attack.
Dead corpses have 1 min to receive ressurrection or else the corpse will move to out of instancezone.
A tip to use of battle rephsody: use it only if healer have celestial party protection and when boss have 20% or less HP don’t use battle raphsodhy, save it to improve damage in magic balista.
Istina Mark:
Istina will put a mark in players, if you have a Mark, you have a chance to die in one attack. Players with mark need run to backside of boss and continue the attack. At this time pray to not die. Healer, remember noblesse death toons.
Magic Balista:
When boss death a Magic Balista will appear. Group have 30 seconds to destroy then (100%), most damage in balista result in better exp and drop. Don't forget debuffs in balista! Use battle raphsody here.
Pickup the drops. A NPC will Spawn, talk with him to end the quest / pickup a magic box with a Gemstone-R, a legendary rumours talking about unbind scroll R-Grade in this box.
Reasons to fail:
Player’s don’t brez healer.
Istina some times cast acid eruption without any advice.
Players without attention to boss skills warnings

Epic Istina:
Need 4 groups of ppl lvl 97+, no much diferent than basic istina, the main diference is the color debuff system, she don't advice where the debuff will occour and the debuff land a lot of damage. In Epic Battle, the Istina Rage must be disabled.
