Ys Memoire: The Oath in Felghana presents several challenging boss encounters, but the initial confrontation with Dularn, The Creeping Shadow, often proves a significant hurdle for players. This first boss fight represents a notable difficulty spike, making it a true test of skill.

Overcoming Dularn can require multiple attempts, but understanding his attack patterns significantly shortens the fight.

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

The battle begins with Dularn shielding himself within a spherical barrier, rendering him invulnerable. The key is to survive his attacks until the barrier dissipates, creating an opportunity to inflict damage. Dularn's health varies depending on the chosen difficulty level. While players can retreat to gain strength, defeating Dularn is mandatory to progress.

Avoid contact with Dularn while his barrier is active, as it inflicts damage. Attempting to attack during this phase will likely lead to defeat.

Dularn's Sword Attacks

Dularn unleashes various sword attacks:

• A volley of swords descending from above.
• Swords forming an X-shape before homing in on the player.
• A straight line of swords thrust towards the player.

To counter these, strategically circle Dularn while the barrier is up to evade the first two attacks. Jumping is crucial for avoiding all sword attacks.

Once Dularn's barrier drops, unleash a flurry of attacks. He'll teleport away after taking significant damage. Maintain distance upon his reappearance, as he'll re-establish the barrier and inflict damage if you're too close.

Dularn's Energy Blasts

Dularn employs two energy-based attacks:

Fireballs

Dodge these fireballs by moving between them or jumping over them. Combining movement and jumping maximizes your chances of evasion.

Arcing Slash

This large blue energy slash leaves no openings for evasion; jumping is the only way to avoid it. These attacks often precede opportunities to damage Dularn, serving as a signal to attack.

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