Here are a few tips and tricks to defeat the Crownless in Wuthering Waves:

• Make sure that all of your characters and weapons are leveled up. Although you can defeat it even if you are under-leveled, it will be very time-consuming.
• The Crownless will make two moves when you activate the Resonance Cord. Either it will swoop down from the air, trying to knock you out, or it will charge at you, trying to deal a massive blow to your HP. Make sure that you dodge these attacks.
• You will need to break the Crownless' Toughness Bar first. Parry the attacks that are glowing golden. It is effective when done with a melee character.
• Once you have taken out the boss' Toughness Bar, the Crownless will be stunned for a few short seconds. Unleash every move in your arsenal to inflict as much damage as you can.
• The Crownless will often take flight and try to hit you with a flurry of attacks. These hits cannot be parried to get ready to dodge them.

Once you have drained the HP bar of the Crownless, it may appear as an echo that you can absorb.
