WUCHANG: Fallen Feathers

Boss difficulty: 8.5/10
Elevator difficulty: 7/10
Time it took me to kill the boss: 3 hours

Yes, this boss has two separate life bars in two completely different phases.

Recommended Build: Empyrean Axe +6 and lifesteal buff (Powerpyx build)

Don't attempt this boss until you're level 60 or higher. I tried at level 53 and luckily succeeded, but it was very hard.

1st phase:
Imagine if Malenia and Nameless Puppet had a daughter... The boss has two swords for physical attack and she casts a red magic spell (sometimes a laser, sometimes projectiles, sometimes she tricks you and starts screaming to stun and kill you).

The battle begins with her ascending to the ceiling and firing four magic projectiles. Don't get too close and dodge at least one of these projectiles perfectly to reduce the time of the axe charged attack. As soon as she lands (probably in the same place), immediately get behind the boss and try to get a backstab. In the attempt where I successfully killed both phases, I managed to trap her in a loop of heavy attacks and backstabs. She escaped a few times, but be efficient and destroy the boss first phase as quickly as possible.

You need three weapon buffs for this boss, so go to the skill tree and on the left side you'll find the upgrades to add two more buff slots to the weapon. Take some points from the axe skill tree, if needed.

2nd phase:
You'll die in the first 30 seconds and have to repeat the first phase. How do you feel about that? Yes, it's frustrating. By the way, did you pull the lever to avoid waiting for the elevator? No, right? I know how that feels...

This disgusting monster has less health than the first phase, but it is fast, erratic, and difficult to predict. I'm not going to lie, I finished this battle with almost 0 health, but luck made me able to land the last attack before dying.

Now I'm going to tell you what you have to do to avoid dying quickly in the 2nd phase (you will still die, but you will die learning to survive):

The boss will scream at the beginning, so stay away. Perfectly dodge all the rushes he throws at you; it's not that difficult to dodge, but it requires knowledge of your previous deaths.

As soon as he stops running, buff your weapon with lifesteal (you must have at least one buff left, don't use it all in the first phase) and immediately run to the left/right side of the boss. Remember: NEVER STAND IN FRONT OF THE BOSS.

Try to stay on the boss sides and attack this bastard non-stop. Use your stamina wisely and deal massive damage to the boss when he's distracted. He casts a magic laser that gives you a perfect opportunity to take a lot of health and break his posture for a backstab.

Continue attacking the boss without getting in front of him with the lifesteal buff. When the buff ends, you should be close to killing the boss, so attack wisely, but be more wary of taking damage.

Summary: Kill the 1st phase quickly, try to survive the 2nd phase and don't forget to pull the elevator lever so you don't have to wait for it when you die. Good luck!
