General advice:
Melee build - how to fight?
Once you enter Sellia Evergaol, you oughta approach a hole in the ground to begin the fight.
The breach is at the edge of the prison, to the south.
Once you approach it, the enemy will appear on the arena and the fight begins.
You cancritically backstab the opponentbefore the battle starts for good.
While at medium distance from the enemy, at least one projectile will be fired at you.
A well-timed dodge (preferably towards the opponent to shut the distance) will allow you to avoid it.
The enemy has a magic hammer at his disposal that he will use when you get closer.
Watch out, as the hammer can perform a combination of pounding strikes.
To mitigate the attack, make a well-timed dodge (right before the hammer strikes the ground).
The attack is telegraphed quite clearly, but if it lands, it can be devastating for your HP.
Hugues will also attack with his club from time to time.
A stronger weapon can even interrupt this attack.
Heavy weapons will quickly throw him off-balance.
Another attack involves magic energy gathering around the enemy’s wand.
If successfully charged, Hugues will fire several projectiles that will explode on impact.
Dodging may not be enough to completely avoid this attack if you’re too close.
Hugues doesn’t have a huge range of moves, making the battle much easier than some.
However, get acquainted with his moveset, as the boss can still make your life miserable.
Also, remember thatyou can take cover from missiles by hiding behind objects in the arena.
you’re able to use that opportunity to heal.
