Defeating Corrupted Seraphon solo in Arcane Lineage can be difficult, especially when using a Blade Dancer build. The boss has strong attacks and can recover a large amount of HP, so mistakes during the fight can quickly ruin the entire run. A good strategy is to focus on avoiding attacks rather than trying to block them. Your enchant choice also matters, with Blessed being a better option than Inferno for this fight.
How to Beat Corrupted Seraphon with Blade Dancer
If you want to take on Corrupted Seraphon alone with Blade Dancer, follow these steps to make the fight more manageable.
- Use the Blessed Enchant
Blessed is recommended for this fight instead of Inferno. Inferno can apply a large amount of Burn, but this can work against you because Corrupted Seraphon has high Retribution and can recover a significant amount of HP. Using Blessed avoids giving the boss an easy way to heal back the damage you have dealt.
- Avoid Every Attack
Dodging is one of the most important parts of the entire strategy. Try to avoid every incoming attack instead of relying on blocking. Missing your dodge or taking unnecessary hits can put you in a dangerous position and may eventually end the run.
Since this is a solo fight, there is no teammate who can cover for your mistakes. Play patiently and focus on surviving while looking for safe opportunities to attack.
- Watch for Calling Light
Corrupted Seraphon has an ability called Calling Light, which can summon one of three different enemies: a Saint, Paladin, or Elementalist. The summon you get can have a major effect on how difficult the fight becomes.
- Kill the Elementalist First
If Calling Light summons an Elementalist, make it your main priority. The Elementalist is considered the most dangerous summon because it has two attacks that cannot be dodged: Gale Uplift and Lightning Crash.
These attacks make the Elementalist more dangerous than the other summons and can cause serious problems during a solo attempt. Deal with the Elementalist as quickly as possible before returning your attention to Seraphon.
- Leave the Saint and Paladin Alive
Unlike the Elementalist, the Saint and Paladin do not have undodgeable attacks. Because of this, you can leave them alive while focusing on Corrupted Seraphon.
Trying to eliminate every summon can waste time and create additional opportunities for mistakes. The safer approach is to remove the Elementalist when it appears and manage the other summons while continuing the boss fight.
- Keep Attacking Safely
Once the dangerous summon has been dealt with, continue fighting Seraphon while maintaining your focus on dodging. Do not rush your attacks if doing so leaves you open to damage. The goal of the solo strategy is to slowly chip away at the boss while avoiding the attacks that can end your run.
The Blade Dancer can solo Corrupted Seraphon in Arcane Lineage with the right approach, but the fight requires careful movement and good target priority. Use the Blessed Enchant instead of Inferno, avoid blocking whenever possible, and make sure you dodge incoming attacks consistently. When Calling Light summons an Elementalist, eliminate it first because Gale Uplift and Lightning Crash cannot be dodged. Saints and Paladins are less threatening, so they can be left alive while you focus on defeating Corrupted Seraphon.
