Ys Memoire: The Oath in Felghana – How to Beat Ellefale

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, emphasizing the importance of distance and utilizing the Ignis Bracelet. Remember, close-quarters combat is highly disadvantageous.

Preparation is Key:

Before engaging Ellefale, prioritize grinding to increase your health above 100. While Raval Ore can upgrade your armor, save it for later upgrades.

Combat Strategy:

Unlike some encounters, rushing Ellefale is ill-advised. Her attacks outrange your basic melee attacks. Instead, utilize the Ignis Bracelet's fireballs from a safe distance. Maintaining maximum range minimizes incoming damage. While Ellefale's moveset isn't extensive, each attack hits hard.

Ellefale's Attacks and Countermeasures:

Ellefale employs four distinct attacks, each impacting player movement and requiring precise timing and positioning:

• Spinning Disc: Ellefale telegraphs this attack by raising her right arm. A perfectly timed jump is crucial to avoid damage. Poor timing, either too early or too late, will result in a hit.

• Vertical Slash: This attack is easily avoided by moving laterally (left or right). However, coordinating this with other evasive maneuvers might be necessary during multi-attack sequences. The telegraph is her raising her right arm.

• Lightning Strike: This is the most challenging attack. Ellefale leans forward as a telegraph. Immediately charge away from her. When she raises both arms, run to the opposite arena edge and jump. Running or jumping towards her during the lightning strike will result in damage.

• Spinning Sphere: This slowly moving projectile restricts player movement. While easily outrun individually, it can trap you if combined with other attacks. The telegraph is her raising both wings.

Mastering the timing and spacing required to avoid these attacks, combined with consistent fireball attacks from a safe distance, will lead to victory against Ellefale. Remember to utilize the provided telegraphs to anticipate her attacks and position yourself accordingly.
