Recommended gear

Coming back later: everything you can get in Chapter 1 without beating it.

Editor's pick Coming back later in Chapter 1: Twin Serpents Staff (40 Attack against 30), Serpentscale pieces (the Battlerobe slowly heals you at low health) and the Pilgrim's Headband to drink while sprinting, handy against a fast boss that burns you. Neither the Bronze Monkey set nor the Fireproof Mantle is possible: they come from Elder Jinchi, who is only reached by ringing the bell Guangzhi guards.

The fight

No second phase and no cutscene: his moves get more varied late in the fight, around half or the last third of his health. Fire is there from the start: his twinblade is ablaze.

One set: Burn is a threat from the first hit, and no Chapter 1 piece you can get without beating him resists fire.

Spells, transformation and soaks are set at a Keeper's Shrine, never mid-fight: what you bring into a fight stays until the end. Nothing reliable confirms that armor can be swapped mid-fight: a page only offers a per-phase variant when a shrine or a checkpoint separates the phases.

What it inflicts

  • Burn after taking 3 or 4 hits, with a gauge filling up on screen.

Attacks to watch

  • Near-instant glaive throw, which also hits on the way back.
  • Triple spinning vertical slash.
  • Flaming charge, and a triple pole-vault slam whose last landing explodes.

What works

  • Dodge 3 or 4 times to put out Burn, without draining your stamina.
  • Body-Cooling Powder: removes Burn and briefly raises Burn Resistance; sold at Keeper's Shrines. Body-Cooling Powder
  • Charged heavy attack: it staggers him, but release it quickly, he punishes slow charges.
  • Immobilize: cast it as soon as it is ready, or keep it to interrupt an attack or regain distance. Immobilize

Strategy

  • Only attack at the end of a combo: when he twirls his blade on his left side, the string is over.
  • Build Focus with light attacks, then unleash a charged heavy attack right away.
  • Too hard? He is optional: come back a few levels higher.

Access

Outside the Forest, Forest of Wolves: from the shrine, take the left path, cross the wooden bridge and follow the torches to the arena. Optional: you can come back later. His clearing holds the first of the 3 bells that lead to the secret area.

What it gives

Will: 567

Red Tides is obtained by picking up his weapon after the fight.
