Ys Memoire: The Oath in Felghana presents players with numerous challenging boss battles, but the very first, against Dularn, the Creeping Shadow, often proves a significant hurdle. This initial encounter represents a considerable difficulty spike, frequently requiring multiple attempts before victory. However, understanding Dularn's attack patterns can significantly shorten this fight.

How to Beat Dularn in Ys Memoire: The Oath in Felghana

The fight begins with Dularn encased in a spherical barrier, rendering him invulnerable. Your focus here is survival until the barrier dissipates, allowing for a brief window of attack. The boss's health varies depending on the chosen difficulty. While you can retreat to regain strength, defeating Dularn is mandatory to progress. Avoid contact with the barrier; touching it inflicts damage. Rushing in during this phase guarantees defeat.

Dularn's Sword Attacks

Dularn employs various sword attacks:

• A volley of swords descending from above.
• An X-shaped formation of homing swords.
• A straight line of thrusting swords.

The homing attacks can be frustrating, but circling Dularn widely while the barrier is active provides space to dodge the first two attacks. Jumping is crucial as a secondary avoidance technique. The straight line requires precise timing: jump just before impact. Once the barrier drops, unleash your attacks; Dularn will teleport after taking sufficient damage. Maintain distance upon his reappearance, as he'll reform the barrier.

Dularn's Wave Blasts

Dularn unleashes two projectile attacks:

Fireballs

Dodge these fireballs by moving between them or jumping over incoming projectiles. Combine movement and jumping for optimal evasion.

Arching Slash

This large blue slash is unavoidable except by jumping over it. This attack often precedes attack windows, signaling your opportunity to damage Dularn.

Mastering Dularn's attack patterns is key; grinding for higher levels isn't necessary.
