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. Note: proximity to Ellefale significantly increases the frequency of successful attacks.

Preparation:

Before engaging Ellefale, substantial grinding is necessary. Aim for over 100 health. While Raval Ore can upgrade armor, conserve it for later upgrades.

Combat Strategy:

Unlike many encounters, rushing Ellefale is detrimental. Her attacks are beyond the reach of basic melee attacks. The Ignis Bracelet is crucial. Maintain maximum distance to minimize damage. Each of Ellefale's attacks is powerful, rapidly depleting health.

Ellefale's Attacks:

Ellefale's attacks restrict player movement, demanding precise positioning. Four attacks comprise her arsenal:

• Spinning Disc: A projectile launched towards the player. Precise timing is essential to jump over it; jumping too early or late results in damage. Ellefale raises her right arm to telegraph this attack.

• Vertical Slash: A relatively easy attack to avoid by moving laterally. However, it can be combined with other attacks, requiring simultaneous dodging maneuvers. Telegraphed by Ellefale raising her right arm.

• Lightning Strike: The most challenging attack to avoid. When Ellefale leans forward, charge forward. When she raises both arms, retreat to the opposite arena edge and jump to avoid the lightning beams. Running or jumping towards her during this attack will result in damage.

• Spinning Sphere: A slowly moving sphere restricting player movement. Easily outrun individually, but it can become problematic when combined with other attacks, potentially trapping the player. Telegraphed by Ellefale raising both wings.

By mastering these avoidance techniques and utilizing the Ignis Bracelet from a safe distance, you can successfully defeat Ellefale, the Azure Queen of Death. Remember, maintaining distance is key to survival.
