Dark Rift in the Coven

[Seltin]

1) Is this a skippable rift?

2) How do you beat this? I killed the first 3 waves, but by the time I get to the leviathan boss guy, I simply do not have enough Life aura remaning vs. the DPS i can do. Playing as a nightshade.

All the gauntlet rifts are optional.

Do you have all the upgrades for lantern?
50% aura refill when aura hits 0 is the key here. Aura recovery on damage helps as well.

His attacks are super easy to bypass with shadowstep. And if you are running poison build, my condolences.

No shame in it, I think I had to come back at a later level and with the accessibility settings down to 70%, cause unless you're playing a busted magic build, the aura drain is way too fast for how tanky it is.

It's sad but im 64 and already at 70%. It's a single player game so not bruised ego or anything, but that fight is not for me...:(

To help your ego a bit, I've beaten Hollow Knight 100% and the difficulty later on in this game is definitely higher, so don't feel bad about finding it tough.
I've heard Nightshade is one of the harder classes to play (this is a very magic-centric game), so you're playing a hard game without bowing out with easy mode, be proud for getting so far!

Hahaha Cheers. Was surprised but the game drew me into from the demo
