Draconic Tree Sentinel (Capital Outskirts) Capital Outskirts Boss

Description

A grotesque Tree Sentinel malformed after the attack by the ancient dragon Gransax. The Draconic Sentinel is a formidable opponent and are much tougher than their weaker counterparts, the Tree Sentinels.

It has several attacks to watch out for. If you’re at range, it can hurl multiple fireballs at you in quick succession. Either roll through, or to the side of them to avoid taking damage. You’ll normally get hit by these when you try to heal. Most of its melee attacks are your typical slow cleaves and slams with its lumbering colossal weapon. You can avoid most of these by attacking the Sentinel on its shield side or i-framing through each swing.

One of its more devastating attacks is its red lightning skill. You’ll know this is coming as the tip of its weapon will start building a red electricity around it, followed by the shield before it unleashes a red lightning bolt at your location. This can be used at range too, so be ready to avoid it. The best time to dodge the attack is when the boss has pulled its shield all the way down, not when it lifts it up.
