Ys Memoire: The Oath in Felghana presents numerous 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 often requires multiple attempts. However, understanding his attack patterns significantly shortens the fight.

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

The battle begins with Dularn shielded by a spherical barrier, rendering him invulnerable. Survival is key during this phase until the barrier dissipates, allowing for a brief window of attack. Dularn's health varies depending on the chosen difficulty level. While players can retreat to regain 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 result in 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, creating space to dodge. Combine circling with timely jumps to avoid incoming swords. The straight line attack requires a precise jump just before impact.

Exploit the moments when Dularn's barrier drops to unleash a flurry of attacks. He will teleport after taking significant damage. Maintain distance upon his reappearance, as he will re-establish his barrier.

Dularn's Projectile Attacks

Dularn employs two projectile attacks:

Fireballs

Dodge these fireballs by moving between them or jumping over them. Combine movement with jumps for optimal evasion.

Arching Slash

This large blue slash requires a jump to avoid; there are no gaps to exploit. This attack often precedes opportunities to damage Dularn, serving as a visual cue for an offensive push.

Mastering Dularn's attack patterns is crucial; grinding levels is unnecessary.
