    Difficulty: 6/10 (at Level 160+)
    Strategy: This boss has a lot of health (about 4 times more than the Jagged Peak Dragons you faced earlier). It also attacks faster and hits harder, using red lightning. Easiest strategy is again with mage. Summon your Mimic Tear ashes at the start. Get behind the dragon, cast Terra Magica to buff your magic damage, consume Wondrous Flask with Cerulean Hidden Tear (infinite mana), fire Comet Azur spell to deal it a lot of damage. Then keep blasting it with Comet Azur from behind while your Mimic Tear distracts it. Always stay on your mount, don't walk on foot. This makes it easier to get away from the dragon when it's about to attack. Most of its red lightning attacks only affect the ground in a short radius around it and are easily prevented by riding away. Bring mostly mana bottles because casting Comet Azur will quickly drain your mana. Not getting hit shouldn't be a huge issue after you familiarized with the dragon's moveset and stay out of its danger zone. When your Mimic Tear dies, ride away from the dragon and cast Rock Sling spell WHILE FACING AWAY FROM IT. The Rock Sling will automatically home in on it, even when you look away from the boss. The dragon doesn't attack as much when you are not facing it / riding away, because it will try to catch up to you to close the distance (as its attack have short range it can't do much from afar). You just have to stay in the ideal range where it tries to chase you / doesn't attack you, but your Rock Sling can still hit it, basically the outer perimeter where your Rock Sling can still hit. Always ride a little bit further in front of the dragon, shoot another Rock Sling, rinse and repeat. If the dragon attacks, dash away quickly ( :circle: / :b: ) to build more distance, it won't hit you then. If it flies up in the air for a charge attack, dash sideways on your mount and jump up before it lands ( :x: / :a: ), this will dodge it. Its other long-range attack is fire breath which it shoots in a straight line, easily avoided by riding sideways. If it makes the ground glow red or casts red spears in its hands just ride away as it'll only hit the ground around itself over a short distance. Keep an eye on your remaining mana flasks, stop using Comet Azur when you only got 2-3 left and switch to Rock Sling spell then.

    Who ever thought of putting an ancient dragon, that loves to do AOE attacks, in an area filled with water, deserves a good talking to…

      @@BrianMorataya-wt9tw in real life (and also in this game) water is a good conductor for electricity.
      So, all the dragon electric attacks turns into AOE.
      So, even if you avoid the lightning attack, it will still strike you by the water that you are standing on (just observe how the his elrctric attacks spread through the water)
      Hope this help 🤗

      It’s a dishonorable cheese but for those struggling there is a trick to this fight … engage the dragon and do damage with range … you can then retreat down the path you took up to his lake … the boss will reset but his health won’t heal … you can, in essence, chip away from his health with range attacks and retreat as he gets close enough to use his aoe and flame attacks …

    Ancient Dragon Senessax cheese is riding torrent with lorettas mastery and running back through the path you came, as Senessax follows he will despawn. Then you ride back to the arena and he will slow walk towards you, it will give just enough time for one or two shot. Then repeat when he depawns down the path

  • @John-on8ld
    @John-on8ld 5 дней назад

    You can cheese this thing with the classic hit and run strat. Use status effect arrows (I suggest a good range bow and arrows that travel farther) or black flame, then run away like a baby. The boss will teleport once it leaves the arena and its hp won't reset. This strat should work with all field bosses.

    I did it no damage on the third try. You just have to run through him with Torrent and give him a couple of hits then move away. Double jump when you hear the sound of lightning. I used the arm of Malenia but any weapon will work...I suggest bleed or poison

    If anyone is stuck on this Torrent is the easiest way to do it without "cheesing" .
    Emulate a jousting match
    Hit it a couple times and leave while he charges his moves.
    Long and tedious but a lot simpler.
