General tips
How to defeat?
Once you’re in the boss arena, you’ll have plenty of time to prepare.
He will remain inactive until you get close to him.
Use the opportunity and use Ashes or items that will help you in battle.
Observe the arena and venture to avoid places where red lightning accumulates.
This way you will avoid taking damage.
Once you’re in the melee range of the opponent, it is best to run to his hindlegs.
This way you will avoid attacks with the wing, front paws and tail swing.
When you’re in melee range, watch out for the moment when the enemy starts to glow red.
This means that there is going to be a powerful explosion soon.
At such a moment, it is best to escape the vicinity of the dragon.
After this (and after any other attack) you have a moment to get close again.
Halfway through the fight, the Placidusax will fly up and disappear, then materialize in the distance.
After that, it will start flying towards you, ready to attack with his paw.
Prepare to dodge on impact - this way you avoid taking damage.
From now on, the enemy will teleportand attack you immediately after reappearing.
However, unlike, for example,Astel, Naturalborn of the VoidPlacidusax teleports to your vicinity to attack.
At this point, it’s best to get as far away as possible.
However, beware of lasers as they can reach even the other end of this large arena.
If possible, venture to get behind the dragon and wait out the attack there.
