Due to the nature of her magic attacks seeking you out, it’s almost never a good idea to dodge away from her, as you run the risk of rolling away from the attack and into the same attack, just further away. Instead, prioritize rolling toward her or to the sides to avoid unnecessary dam

The Red Wolf of Radagon is very acrobatic , leaping around the relatively small boss arena, and it is constantly summoning magic spells to worry about—on top of its quick bite and slash melee attacks. You’ll need to defeat it to proceed through the rest of the academy, so read on to learn about the boss’ moves and which ones you can pun


After resting at the site of grace, head deeper into the catacombs until you reach an elevator platform. Ride this down to the bottom and proceed down the next hall. You’ll encounter two Imps in the next room, lurking around the corners. Dispatch them and loot the Root Resin at the far end of the r


While you are fighting the knights, you can keep Commander Niall at a distance, and he won't pose any significant threat to you (yet). One of the Banished Knights wields dual swords, while the other has a sword and shield. The dual sword knight is far more aggressive and dangerous, so killing him should be your top priority. After the first knight is dead, you can choose to either leave the shield knight alive for a little while or kill him if he's putting too much pressure. You might want to leave the second knight alive for a while because killing both knights results in Commander Niall immediately entering his second ph


You’ve likely faced a variant of this boss before, but in case you haven’t, be prepared for a challenge. The Burial Watchdog bosses have erratic and powerful attacks , making dodging them extra difficult. This boss wields a staff, casts magic attacks, and will occasionally breathe fire from its three heads. If you’re using a ranged or magic build, you might have an easier time. You’ll just need to keep your distance and pepper the boss with an attack. If you’re mixing it up in the melee and having trouble getting the dodge timing right, consider using a shield for guard counters . Otherwise, here are some moves to watch out


For ranged weapon or magic users, this fight can prove to be extra difficult due to the aggressive nature of the Red Wolf and how quickly and frequently it will close the gap to melee range with you. Consider utilizing one of your tanky Spirit Ashes to draw the Red Wolf’s attention and allow you the extra space to fire off your spells or arr


Head out the hallway at the east end of this chamber. At the end of this new hallway, turn right and loot one Grave Glovewort [2] .

This trap can be a hazard during this fight, but you can also use it to your advantage , getting some free hits off on the O


Red Wolf of Radagon brings its head up to the left (your right) and summons the sword, blade sticking straight up. The Red Wolf will then swing the sword across once, then swing it back for a second follow-up attack. This is most often a two-strike combo , but Red Wolf will sometimes follow it up with a Sword High Leap attack. When you recognize this combo, wait to attack until after you’re sure the combo is finis


During this attack, the Red Wolf of Radagon will bite twice in quick succession, and it will bite for the third time , followed by a pause . This pause can be tricky and bait you into thinking the attack sequence is complete. Be wary of that third strike after the pause. Once the third bite happens, the Red Wolf of Radagon is vulnerable to your follow-up att


In the second phase, the boss is much stronger and has a wider variety of AOE and distance-closing attacks, so you will have to play it by ear and decide if you'll have an easier time with the fight by stalling his second phase. If you leave the knight alive too long and the boss drops below 50% health, he will enter the second phase regardless, and then you will be in some serious trou
