How to Beat Man-Eating Dhutanga

Section titled “How to Beat Man-Eating Dhutanga”

Proper preparation is crucial for this fight. Follow these steps to gain an advantage before facing the Master Raider.

  1. Equip the Entwined Legend Pendant

    Section titled “Equip the Entwined Legend Pendant”

    The Entwined Legend Pendant significantly increases your Burn resistance. This is vital for mitigating the damage from Dhutanga’s flame-coated spear attacks in the second phase of the fight.

    You can find this pendant on the road beside Lightzen Temple, near a statue guarded by two enemies with staves.

  2. Strengthen Your Character

    Section titled “Strengthen Your Character”

    Before the boss fight, take some time to farm enemies and upgrade your stats.

    • Farm Enemies: To the right of the Lightzen Temple Shrine, you can find six enemies. First, defeat the four around the campfire by throwing a Fire Pot at the nearby explosive vases. Then, enter the wrecked house on the right, where two more enemies will drop from the ceiling.
    • Upgrade Stats: Use the Mercury Essence you’ve collected (by exchanging Red Mercury) at the Impetus Repository to unlock new stat nodes and weapon-specific passives.
    • Get the Cloudfrost Edge: Near the four enemies by the campfire, you can pick up the Cloudfrost Edge, a One-Handed Sword. Its unique skill, Evasive Maneuver, allows you to temporarily evade all enemy attacks when activated with Skyborn Might.

  3. Upgrade the Manna Vase

    Section titled “Upgrade the Manna Vase”

    Visit the Impetus Repository and navigate to the left side to find the Manna Vase upgrade tree. Upgrading your Manna Vase increases its number of charges and enhances its healing potency.

    • To increase charges, you will need Forgotten Remembrance.
    • To enhance health recovery, you will need Lost Remains.

MoveDetails
Leap AttackDhutanga builds momentum and leaps, slamming his spear onto the ground. Dodge forward as he lands to get behind him for a heavy attack. This move is often followed by another attack.
Forward ChargeHe plants his spear and charges forward. Damage is dealt when he lifts the spear at the end of the charge. Wait a moment before dodging as he reaches you.
Downward StrikeDhutanga raises his spear and brings it down in a powerful strike. Dodge to the sides to avoid it. This is a common follow-up attack.
Ground SmashHe spins his spear overhead and smashes it into the ground. Dodge to either side and try to get behind him for a heavy attack.
Ground StompDhutanga raises a leg and stomps the ground, creating an area-of-effect shockwave. Move away from him or dodge just as his foot hits the ground.
Spear BurrowHe plants his spear in the ground and then kicks it to unearth it. Both actions deal damage. After he plants the spear, dodge forward to get behind him and attack.
Spear ComboA three-hit combo consisting of an overhead slash, a sideways slash, and a final stab. The timing between attacks aligns well with your dodge timing, making it easy to evade.
