Ys Memoire: The Oath in Felghana presents several challenging boss encounters, but the initial showdown with Dularn, The Creeping Shadow, often proves a significant hurdle for players. This first major boss fight represents a notable difficulty spike, frequently requiring multiple attempts before victory. However, understanding Dularn's attack patterns allows for a relatively swift defeat.
Conquering Dularn in Ys Memoire: The Oath in Felghana
The battle begins with Dularn encased in a protective energy barrier. This barrier renders him invulnerable, forcing players to focus on evasion until it dissipates. Once the barrier drops, players have a brief window to inflict damage. Dularn's health varies based on the selected difficulty level. While players can retreat to regroup, defeating Dularn is mandatory to progress.
Avoid contact with Dularn while his barrier is active; touching him results in player damage. Attempting to attack during this phase guarantees defeat.
Dularn's Sword Attacks
Dularn unleashes various sword attacks:
- A descending volley of swords aimed directly at the player.
- An X-shaped formation of swords that home in on the player.
- A straight line of swords thrust towards the player.
The homing attacks can be challenging. While the barrier is active, circling Dularn provides space to dodge the first two sword attacks. However, precise positioning is crucial, and jumping is recommended as a secondary evasion technique. The straight line attack requires a well-timed jump to avoid damage.
Exploit the moments when Dularn's barrier falls to unleash a concentrated attack. After taking significant damage, he teleports, re-establishing his barrier upon reappearance. Maintain distance to avoid taking damage.
Dularn's Energy Blasts
Dularn employs two projectile attacks:
Fireballs
Players can evade the fireballs by strategically moving between them or jumping over incoming projectiles. Combining movement and jumping maximizes evasion success.
Arcing Slash
This large blue energy slash leaves no gaps for evasion; jumping is the only effective countermeasure. This attack often precedes periods when Dularn is vulnerable, signaling an opportunity to attack.
Mastering Dularn's attack patterns is key to victory; grinding for higher levels isn't necessary.
Rewards for Defeating Dularn in Ys Memoire: The Oath in Felghana
