How to Beat Laxasia, The Complete in Lies of P
It is vital that players are confident in their ability topull off Perfect Guards/Parries for this fight, as Laxasia is not just an accomplished wielder of weapons but is also capable of using lightning to do her bidding. As with most challenging fights, this will be a battlesplit into two phases.
Phase 1
In this form, players should think of Laxasia as a hulking, armored threat that should only be engaged in bursts. With her giant sword, she will be able to cover a large distance and catch players off guard if they are not careful. Before beginning, Pinocchio cansummon a Specterto help via theuse of a Star Fragment, which can be a useful distraction, allowing for more attack windows. During the fight, it is important to watch out for the following:
Keep poking at her whenever possible, and using theAegis Legion Armcan help as well, and eventually, the first part of the battle will end with Laxasia getting some comeuppance. At this point, it is likely that the Specter has run its course, so caution is once again advised heading into the latter half of the fight.
Phase 2
Now stripped of her armor, Laxasia goes all-out with the element of lightning, which makes her even more dangerous than before.
As much as possible, players should attack conservatively anduse Fable Artswhen Laxasia is distracted to take advantage. With enough practice, this threatening boss will go down, rewarding players with theSad Zealot’s Ergoand plenty of normal Ergo to use for upgrades.
