General tips
Mage build - how to fight?
Before the battle you should equip theMagic Glintbladespell.
This spell first creates an aura, which then materializes a sword and sends it flying at your enemy.
You should start off by leaving the circle you’re in without approaching the blue light.
When leaving the circle Darriwil will appear by the blue light.
Unfortunately you never have much time to cast a spell.
You should only cast once the boss is away from you or finishes a missed combo.
Never, ever heal or regenerate mana when the boss is close or at medium distance.
If you do, he will immediately attack you and probably kill you.
When fighting Darriwil you must be prepared to use melee weapons often to deal damage.
Equipping a shield might come in handy, just as switching between it and your staff.
What’s more,it’s worth blocking his first three attacks and then retaliating.
The opponent’s aggressive disposition will ensure that most of these attempts will be interrupted.
Provoke the attacks that involve him dragging his weapon or claws against the ground, then dodge and retaliate.
Melee build - how to fight?
Bloodhound Knight Darriwil won’t appear on the arena immediately.
The opponent will appear from it.
it’s possible for you to seize the moment andstart with a strong jump attackto welcome the knight.
The opponent isvery fast, agile and strong.
He will stay on your toes constantly.
Therefore, opportunities to attack aren’t found often.
If you carry a shield, keep it raised as often as possible.
This will help your defense a little bit, but only the largest shield protect against his attacks.
Dodging is the way to go, although you oughta be acquainted with his moveset.
If you want to be aggressive in return, dodge toward the opponent.
The enemy often moves forward when attacking, so you will land behind his back many times.
However, even if opportunity presents itself, strike for maximum of two attacks.
Heavy weapons may throw the opponent off-balance, which can be followed with a critical hit.
When charging, the opponent will disappear for a moment.
When the enemy is close, dodge forward as fast as possible.
If you manage to avoid his death from above, you could return with the same attack,.
ashe’ll be idlefor a moment, gathering strength for the next attack.
He does it after each stronger attack, which most of the time ends with a strong ground strike.
Use these opportunities to deal damage of your own.
Using a weapon inducing any of the negative statuses greatly facilitates and makes this difficult fight shorter.
If, on the other hand, his bleeding status causes you problems, haveStanching Bolusesat the ready.
Nevertheless, the bleeding placed on you by the opponent isn’t that severe.
