Conquering Ellefale, the Azure Queen of Death in Ys Memoire: The Oath in Felghana
Ys Memoire: The Oath in Felghana presents a significant challenge with its boss, Ellefale. This guide details strategies to defeat her. Maintaining distance is crucial; close-range combat is highly disadvantageous.
Preparation is Key:
Before engaging Ellefale, prioritize grinding to boost your health above 100. While armor upgrades using Raval Ore are beneficial, conserve this resource for later enhancements.
Utilizing the Ignis Bracelet:
Ellefale is beyond the reach of standard attacks. The Ignis Bracelet's fireballs are your primary offensive tool. Maintain maximum distance to minimize damage while effectively attacking.
Ellefale's Attacks and Countermeasures:
Ellefale employs four distinct attacks:
-
Spinning Disc: Telegraphed by her raising her right arm. Precise timing is essential; jump to avoid the disc, but not too early or too late. This attack can inflict substantial damage.
-
Vertical Slash: Telegraphed by her raising her right arm. A simple sidestep is sufficient to evade this attack.
-
Lightning Strikes: The most challenging attack. Telegraphed by her leaning forward, followed by raising both arms. Immediately charge away from her, jumping to ensure safety. Running towards her while she's charging this attack will result in a direct hit.
-
Spinning Sphere: Telegraphed by her raising both wings. This slowly moving projectile restricts movement options. While easily outrun individually, it can become problematic when combined with other attacks, potentially trapping you.
Strategic Positioning:
Mastering the arena's use is vital. Ellefale's attacks can temporarily restrict safe zones, demanding careful positioning and movement to avoid multiple attacks simultaneously. Remember to maintain distance and utilize the arena's space to your advantage. The key is to anticipate her attacks and react accordingly, using a combination of movement and jumping to evade her attacks while consistently firing fireballs with your Ignis Bracelet.
