Eligor
|
. |
Eligor,
in vying for the a certain series honor, is an absurdly large demon that was
summoned to protect the castle. The systematic battle, which requires that
a number of hurdles are cleared before the main target can be approached,
commences once the presumptive hero mounts the seemingly inanimate corpse
of Eligor and is soon sent crashing into the room's right wall; it's from
this point where you'll have to work your way beneath the indeed-active Eligor,
then over to its left side, and finally onto its back--the point from which
you can get a clear shot at its vulnerable (and oddly placed) eye. Only after
you break its red-crystal kneecaps (which will eventually regenerate) will
it stand on its hind legs, in great pain, and leave you the opportunity to
run beneath it; as you attempt this, Eligor runs interference by alternating
between sword attacks (a downward stab or a swipe-and-drag motion, depending
upon the hero's position) and hunching down to fire arrows from an installed
crossbow, which can be destroyed. Once you're beneath Eligor, you'll have
to safely reposition yourself as it treks to and fro; doing this will allow
you to avoid direct contact and its front-leg kicks. Soon Eligor will
execute a jump attack and leave you enough time to advance to its left side;
from there, you'll have destroy another set of knee crystals and do so as
Eligor attempts to disrupt the effort with back kicks, tail-stabs, and arrows
as fired from its second, more-rapidly-firing crossbow. When
these kneecaps are destroyed, Eligor will slump to the ground, and
its idle tail will become climbable and give you direct access to the main
target. Though,
Eligor will eventually recover, and it'll attempt to limit the onslaught with
one of its more-damaging attacks: a tail whip; a curled-tail stab; or when
it's really low on health, a leaning headbutt. Any of these can potentially
knock the hero back down to the room's right side and unfortunately
restart the cycle.
