General tips

  1. The battle allows the use of Ashes or other players.
  2. Consider using a mount during this battle. This will significantly increase your mobility, and thus make the fight easier.
  3. The enemy can be inflicted with poison, hemorrhage, frostbite and scarlet rot. If you have weapons that impose these statuses, consider using them.
  4. When it comes to items, equip something that protects both from magic and physical attacks.
  5. If you are going to use magic attacks, avoid pure magic. Fire, lightning and ice schools will work best here. However, physical attacks are the most effective by far.
  6. It's best to focus on attacking your opponent's legs or wings. Only target their head when there's a good opportunity.
  7. In addition to breathing magic fire, the opponent can also use a magic blade, which they sometimes hit against the ground while landing.
