Yellow flash from enemies

[Kath]

I don't know if I've missed an important part of the tutorial or if I just didn't see it but is there an important meaning to the yellow flash that some times show from enemies? They seem kind of important now that I met the flamethrower guys...

Some of the enemies/bosses telegraph that they are about to attack through yellow flashes.

Oh is that so? So pretty much the only thing I can do is dodge and gain distance whenever that happens?

Yeah, you'll want to be prepared to dodge/parry when it shows up. It's not super helpful for the flamethrowers though since they're so fast that it's best to stay away from them in general.

Alright, thanks for the heads-up!

I've noticed that you can interrupt enemies if you hit them at the exact moment the flash happens, time slows down for a split second and the enemy takes a lot of damage, but it's hard to pull off.

You can shoot projectile orbs before they are fired to get interrupts too.

Thank you all for the tip! Managed to finish the game last night and will try to practice some of that in the arena.

Yeah, the flash is added to some enemy attacks for visual and audio aid if it's difficult to tell when they're attacking or when a parry chance starts.
