Ys Memoire: The Oath in Felghana progressively introduces challenging bosses, encouraging players to master the game's mechanics. While not exceptionally long, the game features a satisfying roster of formidable opponents.
Gyalva, the Lord of the Blazing Prison, presents a significant challenge, requiring a solid understanding of combat, abilities, and game mechanics. This guide will help you overcome this fiery adversary.
How to Defeat Gyalva in Ys Memoire: The Oath in Felghana
- Boss Location: Zone of Lava, the Escapeless Abyss
- Boss Health: 1200 (Normal Difficulty)
Following the defeat of Guilen, the Fire Eater, players will encounter Gyalva deeper within the Zone of Lava. The key to victory lies in strategic positioning at either end of the unstable bridge.
The limited movement options and the bridge's constant disruption by Gyalva's attacks necessitate a dynamic approach. Utilize frequent jumps to reach Gyalva and unleash wind magic for maximum damage output within short bursts.
Conquering Ys Memoire's bosses, a hallmark of the acclaimed Nihon Falcom franchise, provides a rewarding sense of accomplishment.
Gyalva's Attack Patterns in Ys Memoire: The Oath in Felghana
Gyalva, a unique boss not present in the original Ys III, presents a diverse array of attacks. While the fight's core mechanics are relatively straightforward, Gyalva's attacks can inflict substantial damage quickly. Gyalva moves across the bridge, often launching sections into the air with fiery attacks.
Adequate preparation is crucial. Consider upgrading Adol's equipment and aiming for level 21 before engaging. Defeating smaller enemies along the way will help expedite this process.
Spinning Attacks
Gyalva employs two variations of spinning attacks. The first targets a section of the bridge, launching affected platforms into the air. The second involves a full-bridge traversal, causing all platforms to flip. These attacks can severely deplete health if the player is under-leveled.
To counter the first attack, quickly move to either side of the affected area. For the second attack, the only safe position is on either ledge at the bridge's end. Staying close to one side ensures a safe retreat to the edge.
Avoid the very end of the bridge to prevent being cornered. Instead, strategically move along the bridge to attack Gyalva before retreating to the nearest ledge.
Fire Blast
Gyalva launches fireballs onto the bridge, sending platforms airborne. While damaging, this attack provides an opportunity to land several hits on Gyalva.
Bursting Torches
Torches along the bridge periodically erupt in flames, accompanied by a fireball chain reaction. These bursts inflict damage. While their timing is unpredictable, the period after a burst provides a safe window to move.
