Tips & Strategy
- •She heals with EVERY hit (even blocked hits) -- dodging is mandatory, not blocking
- •Waterfowl Dance: run away for the first flurry, dodge into her for the second, dodge away for third
- •Frost is extremely effective -- it reduces her healing and deals bonus damage on proc
- •Phase 2 (Rot Goddess): her Scarlet Aeonia dive leaves a Rot pool -- sprint to the arena edge
- •She can be staggered with heavy attacks -- jump attacks and guard counters build poise damage
