Dragonkin Soldier

[Anime-Profile-Picture]

On horseback or on foot? Absolutely nothing is working. I have no idea what to do beyond summoning and I'd rather do this solo. Ashes of war don't help either.

mimic+10 makes everything easy.. besides that, dragonkin soldier is bugged. stand in his left kneecap and he will just keep backpeddeling until he does an attack where he needs to stand up... u should be able to shave off 70% of his health without moving lul

Problem with Mimic Tear is depending on your Stats & Equipment but then again it's AI is 50/50.

Foot easily. Every open world boss I see notes from players suggesting that horse back will work when all it does is get you knocked on your butt because you can't dodge most bosses attacks.

The key to most of these bosses is to primarily fight them on foot and if they have a huge AOE/firebreath attack you quickly summon your horse to get out of the range.

All of those bosses are a cakewalk on foot because on horse back you have to preemptively know when they are going to attack since you have no iframes/dodging on your horse.

The point of fighting on horseback isn't to dodge (unless it's a low sweep, then you can just jump over it). It's because if you're on Torrent, you move fast enough to be completely out of range of their attack, then you can zoom in for a few free hits during their endlag. It's almost like fighting ranged, except you're throwing yourself instead of a magic missile.

Yeah I still find horseback easier for fighting dragons, but that said, I agree. Thing about being on horseback is you can't use you're ash of war.

Hmm only one I found was among a sizeable freaky area in the shadow of a large something, the thing bent me over til I gave up, need to try it again now I think about it, that there are multiple of them is slightly worrying.

That one is tougher than the other one if that helps you feel better.

Considering both location of the Dragonkin Soldier doesn't allowed Horse Battle. The fight is manageable aside the one at a Certain Lake which you need to raise up Platforms.
Ashes of War does help but that's for you to figure it out.
There are Ashes Summon so use it if you don't want to Summon Online Help.

I was wondering what those rotting platforms were for, thanks.

It does actually lol.

Probably didn't help that I was there fairly early as a hybrid build and didn't even have a proper int weapon, I'm a good 100+ levels higher now though with proper stats for melee and spells :)

Running around the Lake with the Cleanrot Equipment and that Talisman that improve Immunity Greatly does help on the field running around and chugging flask for those Platform Location. Once out of Flask, just teleport back to a Grace.

It's way easier on horse. You can jump or double jump over the sweeping attacks. Ride by hits with large weapons, or put bleed on something faster. Mince meat him.

So I just found the other one in Ainsel and killed it on the first try LOL, I'm thankful I found the other one first because I think it was harder. I'm so glad I went with a bleed/arcane build. I didn't even know how stupid OP bloody slash was when I decided to use it, I've just fallen into the pve meta on entirely on accident.
