Returning to the shrine, I stocked up on medicines before re-engaging the Wandering Wight with a more patient strategy. After a teleport item accidentally reset my progress, I redirected my path toward the waterfall, taking down a tough crow-like enemy guarding the scenic passage.
Determined to enter the next major fight fully prepared, I backtracked to the shrine to restock on essential supplies rather than risking another sequence of rapid deaths. Opening the store, I sold off various valuable items collected along my journey to raise funds.
Then I invested the gold into tactical consumables, purchasing Evil-Repelling Medicine, Body-Cooling Powder, and Anti-Miasma Powder, hoping these status-curing items would give me an edge against the tough bosses waiting ahead.
With my inventory restocked, I decided to return to the broad-headed brute who had crushed me earlier. Opening the engagement, I cast my stun ability immediately and delivered a fast combo, though it barely dented his massive health pool.
Realizing that raw aggression was getting me killed, I fell back to keep my distance, recognizing that patience and timing were far more critical than raw gear upgrades.
I circled the arena until my stun cooldown refreshed, stepping in to freeze him right as he wound up a massive overhead punch.
I punished the opening with a solid sequence of light attacks, but one minor misstep allowed the brute to grab me, resulting in a sudden knockout.
Respawning at the checkpoint, I cleared out the patrolling wolves along the path and sprinted straight back to the arena. I caught the boss from behind before he could turn around, casting stun instantly to land a flawless opening combo.
The flurry made the brute furious, causing him to retaliate with sweeping strikes. Once my spell refreshed, I cast stun again and unleashed everything in my arsenal
However, in the middle of button-swapping, I accidentally consumed an Incense Trail Talisman, which teleported me out of the arena and back to the shrine, completely resetting the fight.
Frustrated by the accidental retreat, I sprinted back toward the arena, but took heavy damage from roaming enemies along the trail, losing half my health before even reaching the entrance.
Deciding I was not in the right condition to tackle the brute again, I pivoted toward the waterfall path to test my skills against a different opponent. Guarding the approach was a tall, crow-like figure dressed in warrior attire.
Though not an actual area boss, the creature hit far harder than standard enemies. I opened with a stun, dodged its aggressive counterattacks, and drained its health down until it fell, and finally secured a clear path up to the edge of the waterfall.
All the pictures are take by me, from my gameplay. I took help from the internet for some words/names/locations used in this post.
