How to Beat Faerin or Faelin in Remnant 2 (Tips & Strategy)
Since the head is the weak point of both bosses, Faerin and Faelin, ensure that your reticule is always placed and aimed at their heads. Aside from that, having an ally, your canine companion, or some additional meds can help you with the boss fight. But note that both the bosses use ranged attacks as well as melee attacks to close the distance. And as these bosses can also teleport, keep on moving while also firing at them.
So, here are some tips to beat Faerin or Faelin in Remnant 2:
Dodging Close-Melee Attacks
Soon as the boss fight starts, Faelin or Faerin will be at a great distance from you. But since both, the bosses can close the distance pretty fast, dodge sideways, or perform a backstep dodge. While maintaining a distance, aim and keep firing at their heads. You will have to time your dodges to avoid any close encounters. Since both the bosses can teleport when the odds are against them, you must be cautious and watch their next move, constantly.
Destroy the Energy Balls
When Faerin or Faelin is half of their health bar, they will begin creating energy orbs. Similar to turrets, these energy balls can cause serious damage if you come in contact with them. So, ensure to destroy them before any of the energy orbs get in between during the boss fight. Below 50% of their health bar, Faelin or Faerin will move faster and melee-slash more frequently.
Watch out for the Sword Blades from Above
Once you deplete 50% health bar of Faerin or Faelin in Remnant 2, either boss will start moving the sword blades. If you don’t watch these swords, they can cause you massive damage in one blow. So, whenever the swords elevate, you must create a distance between the bosses and watch out for the multiple swords above you. As you wait, you will notice these elevated swords will fall exactly below the ground.
Maintain a Distance from Faerin or Faelin’s Slam Attack
Nearing the end of their health bar, Faerin or Faelin will ground-slam attack with massive AoE damage. To avoid this damage, you must sidestep dodge, and sprint somewhere safe around the arena. Before they inflict this attack, notice that they will either grunt or yell. As soon as they start building up this attack, you must roll backward and shoot their heads.
