How do you beat Evelyn?

[XxGARxX]

is there a trick?

[anthonyfrazier]

This was my strategy on hard mode, it worked fairly well.

This fight becomes very manageable with a steady supply of summoned fire elementals, use them to tank the 3 fire mobs, 2 dogs and skeleton and harrass Evelyn with them.

Crowd control and take down the big demon and then the mage, cc the skeleton lieutenant since he will summon an archer, you want to get the 3 fire mobs to have aggro on your fire elemntal(s) their fire damage will heal your fire elementals and they will be very effective tanks in this fight.

After the mage and big demon are dead start beating down evelyn, and keep the skeleton cc'd, the dogs have very little hp so you may want to damage them down to make things more reasonable.

Then get evelyn down, the trick is to use at least 2 fire elementals to force all the mobs to aggrom them allowing the rest of your party to cc and focus fire effectively, The AI makes the very possible, evelyn casts either shadw or fire damage so they can tank her fairly well. The only real thret to them is the big demon which can 2 shot them so make sure to burn that guy down fist and make sure he is cc'd while doing it, I split one fire elemental of evelyn and one on this guy initially to help take the demon down faster.

Hope this helps.

I teleported her to the top of the steps just before the chat will initiate. When the dialogue finishes you have a couple seconds where you are free to move, so run down the steps to the open area.

Then proceed to use your area skills and win the fight easily.

EDIT: You teleport her before she starts talking to you, this will force the dialogue to start.

When i was playing with a party of four the levitation spell that jorundur has works to lift enemies and bring them closer. Bring evelyn up close, right next to madora, then everyone attack her. once evelyn is dealth with deal with the minions. I couldnt defeat her on normal, i defeated her on easy. one thing i have to say for this game- it is challenging

Heck, all I did was this:

1. Set an Ooze barrel on the stairs leading down to her.
2. Used a caster with Teleport to pick up the barrel and toss it at her. This initiated combat.
3. The poison spread all around her immediate area where she summons her minions, disabling her from summoning. She tried, but was unable to do it.
4. Tank and spank.

She did manage to summon only the large Demon just on the outside of the poison pool, but she was unable to summon anything else. I suppose this is because the AI will not allow NPC's to voluntarily walk over surfaces that will harm them, and as a result, they couldn't be summoned in on top of it. I don't know - perhaps it was a bug, but I'm happy with the results nonetheless.

Well, I beat her last night with two lone wolf glass cannons on hard. Here was my strategy.

I initiated combat from the point at which the stairs bent by laying down a midnight oil at her feet. She started slowed and summoned her friends in. When her turn was over, I pulled back around the bend in the stairs and laid a midnight oil at the gap between the rubble and the bannister. Because there was no clear path, all of the melees skipped over their turn, with the exception of the Charred bones melee who summoned an archer in. The archer, Evelyn, and the other mage made their way up the staircase. I proceeded to damage them as much as possible, while laying down extra midnight oils at the bottom of the stairs, in case the one I'd created at the bottleneck got ignited (which it did later). I was able to kill the mage and the scout quickly enough. Evelyn was a bit harder, but I closed with my melee character, hasted him and just pounded her. Once she was dead I moved within range of the melees (who still weren't doing anything thanks to the oil slick blocking their access to me) and teleported each of the explosive hounds next to the demon, who died. Then I picked off the fire skelly and was done. Note, I did this under level (level 5).

There is an easier but cheesier method, too, to get her positioned like that. Only one character is locked in dialog with her, but you can still switch to the others. The others can do anything, and she will not react - even if you teleport her around. You could basically put her anywhere on the map, as well as moving your three non-talking characters into optimal position.

that was one of the easiest boss fights in the game....

[Deathfromace]

I didn't use this method but I find it amusing

I have a lone wolf 2h melee and I found her to be easy. However, when I tried to beat her with my friend on coop, we had a lot of trouble.
