Saros Prophet is the main boss in the Shattered Rise biome. This first Overlord encounter will test your jumping, dodging, and dashing abilities.
Let’s see what you must do to defeat it!
How to Defeat the Saros Prophet Boss
The fight against Prophet has three phases. Each phase begins after the boss loses one HP bar.
Shattered Rise Boss – Phase 1
As soon as the fight starts, concentrate your attention on the nodes on both sides of the boss.
Meanwhile, you will have to deal with attacks from Prophet. Such as the fire circle that appears along the ground. You would be wise to try and jump over it to avoid this attack and any unnecessary incoming damage
Another attack to watch out for involves blue circle orb projectiles, where you will need to move in the opposite direction to avoid the incoming damage
After you deal with the nodes, you can start attacking the boss. There are two new attacks you must deal with while shooting at the boss.
The yellow projectile attack can take three forms. Jump or dash to the sides to avoid the oblique attacks and jump over the horizontal attack.
The boss summons five orbs that come at you one after another. Get your shield up and keep it on to survive this attack.
Saros First Boss – Phase 2
During phase 2 of the fight. The boss will begin spawning adds that shoot projectiles. Defeat these enemies as soon as they appear. To avoid being overwhelmed by their attacks
Notice that the nodes from Phase 1 have reappeared, so you must deal with them again. During this time, Prophet uses the attacks from Phase 1.
The most dangerous attack in Phase 2 is the circle attack. Where you will see numerous yellow orbs appear. Wait until the circles expand and dodge through them. You can also stay in the gaps between the orbs too.
Saros Prophet – Phase 3
The boss doesn’t perform any new moves, however, the two walls significantly restrict your freedom of movement, making it more difficult to avoid the attacks.
Deal with the attacks just like in Phase 1 and 2, but be prepared for an intense fight, as these attacks come more frequently in Phase 3. Once the boss is down, you will unlock the story-related Prophet trophy.
