Boss Battle: The Enchantress
Stats / Weaknesses:
- The Enchantress herself is not the main threat; the stage hazards are.
- The battle takes place on breakable blocks, and her attacks often destroy or add blocks, limiting movement space.
Recommended Relics:
- Anchor: Effective when she floats above or below you.
- Phase Locket: Useful for gaining more mileage from your life bar when real estate is limited, especially during large fire attacks from below.
Enchantress's Moves:
- Energy Shots (Vertical): At the start, she shoots energy shots you can jump over or reflect.
- Energy Shots (Horizontal): She hovers above and shoots a shot downwards, destroying blocks. This can happen 2-3 times in a row. You have some control over which blocks she destroys based on your position.
- Charge Attack: She rapidly dashes around the stage at angles. Predict her path based on available blocks.
- Fire From Below: Dark fire comes from below, restoring blocks and damaging you. Starts as small patches, later becoming large patches. The Phase Locket is useful against large patches.
Strategy:
- Reflect her initial energy shots.
- Use the Anchor relic when she is above or below you for multiple hits.
- Utilize the Phase Locket to avoid damage from large fire attacks or when movement space is limited.
- Be mindful of block destruction and plan your movements carefully.
