Swing Attack

Swing Attack is his primary attack, where he immediately swings again when he strikes for the first time. You can parry this attack when you see him swinging his sword for the first time. You can also block, but it isn’t recommended because you will take minor damage, and your Frostbite Meter will fill up on each hit.

Note: If you keep hitting the Heavy Attacks after dodging his attacks, you will break his posture, allowing you to land a crucial blow on him.

Spring Forward

He kneels to boost himself forward to hit you with a counterclockwise swing attack. Roll as soon as you see the boss striking with his sword.

How to Beat Ancient Hero of Zamor Boss Easily?

Melee Users

This boss’s weapon attacks are entirely Parryable. If your Parry game is strong, this battle will be a piece of cake. However, if you feel uncomfortable parrying this boss, you can block and dodge his attacks.

After entering the arena, immediately put on the Incantation on your Melee Weapon and then land a couple of heavy attacks on him. It will inflict Flame damage to him that will deal extra damage. After that, you must play safe and only attack when you find the opening. Bait his attacks to get hits on him, and once you have taken down 45% of his health without taking any hit, you will break his Stance, which will give you the advantage to hit him with a significant blow.

Magic and Ranged Users

For Magic Users, this boss would be straightforward because this boss has a weakness of Magic. You need to stand back and cast your spells on him continuously to deal a decent amount of damage on every hit. It would help to keep your distance to avoid getting hit by him while casting the spells. You must also have at least 3 Flasks of Cerulean Tear to regain your FP when required.

For the Ranged Users, you can use the Flame Sling and Firebone Arrows to deal Fire Damage to the boss from a distance. However, you would still have to be careful in dodging his attacks. Keep an eye on your stamina, and don’t deplete all of your energy in shooting arrows.
