Ys Memories: Felghana Oath - New Feature Unveiled

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 Ellefale, a boss fight demanding strategic precision and preparation. Proximity is detrimental; maintaining distance is key to survival. While manageable on normal difficulty, higher difficulties necessitate thorough preparation. The Ignis Bracelet proves invaluable.

Strategic Preparation:

Before engaging Ellefale, prioritize boosting your health above 100. While Raval Ore can upgrade armor, conserve it for later upgrades. Rushing the fight is ill-advised; Ellefale is initially out of basic attack range.

Utilizing the Ignis Bracelet:

The Ignis Bracelet's fireballs are your primary offensive tool. Maintain maximum distance from Ellefale to minimize incoming damage while effectively utilizing the bracelet. Each of Ellefale's attacks is potent, demanding careful evasion.

Ellefale's Attacks and Countermeasures:

Ellefale employs four distinct attacks, each restricting player movement and demanding precise timing and positioning:

1. Spinning Disc:

Telegraphed by Ellefale raising her right arm, this projectile necessitates perfectly timed jumps. Too early, and you'll land on the disc; too late, and you'll be hit.

2. Vertical Slash:

A simpler attack, easily avoided by lateral movement (left or right). However, simultaneous attacks may require combined dodging and jumping. This attack is also telegraphed by Ellefale raising her right arm.

3. Lightning Strike:

The most challenging attack. Telegraphed by Ellefale leaning forward, it requires a prompt forward dash followed by a retreat and jump to the opposite arena side when she raises both arms. Running or jumping towards her during the strike will result in damage.

4. Spinning Sphere:

A slowly moving sphere restricting movement. While easily outrun individually, its combination with other attacks can trap the player. Ellefale raises both wings to telegraph this attack.

By mastering these evasion techniques and utilizing the Ignis Bracelet effectively from a distance, you can overcome the formidable Ellefale, the Azure Queen of Death. Remember, patience and precise timing are crucial for victory.
