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 will help you overcome this formidable opponent. Maintaining distance is crucial; close-quarters combat will result in frequent hits. While manageable on normal difficulty, higher difficulties demand strategic preparation. The Ignis Bracelet will be your key weapon.

Preparation:

Before engaging Ellefale, prioritize grinding to boost your health above 100. While upgrading armor with Raval Ore is an option, save this resource for later enhancements.

Strategy:

Avoid rushing into battle. Ellefale is initially out of range of your standard attacks. Utilize the Ignis Bracelet's fireballs to inflict damage from a safe distance. The farther you are, the less likely you are to be hit.

Ellefale's Attacks:

Ellefale possesses a limited but potent arsenal. Each attack restricts movement, necessitating careful positioning.

• Spinning Disc: A projectile launched towards the player. Precise timing is essential; jump too early or too late and you'll take damage. Ellefale telegraphs this attack by raising her right arm.

• Vertical Slash: A relatively easy-to-dodge attack. Simple lateral movement will suffice. This attack is also telegraphed by Ellefale raising her right arm.

• Lightning Strike: This is Ellefale's most challenging attack. She telegraphs it by leaning forward. Immediately charge forward, and when she raises both arms, retreat to the opposite end of the arena and jump to avoid the lightning beams.

• Spinning Sphere: A slowly moving sphere that restricts movement. While easily outrun individually, it can become problematic when combined with other attacks. This attack is telegraphed by Ellefale raising both wings.

Mastering the timing and positioning required to evade these attacks, combined with consistent fireball damage from a distance, will lead to victory over Ellefale, the Azure Queen of Death. Remember to utilize the provided telegraphs to anticipate her actions and position yourself accordingly.
