Sand Guardian Phase 1

The Sand Guardian is a formidable boss encounter, often featuring multiple phases. In the first phase, the Guardian typically relies on powerful, sweeping melee attacks and ground-shattering slams. Your primary strategy should be to focus on evasion. Utilize the Prince's agility to dodge its wide arcs of attack. Look for brief windows of opportunity after its attacks to land a few hits with your scimitar. The Dagger of Time's Slow ability can be crucial here, allowing you to better anticipate its movements and find openings. Be patient and focus on survival; aggressive, reckless attacks will likely lead to swift defeat.
