Cloudtreading Deer Strategy
Conserve Your Spells Until the Second Phase New Skills in Second Phase Run and Dodge the Blood Attacks

Conserve Your Spells

It's crucial to conserve your mana during the first phase of the fight, using little to no spells. Cloudtreading Deer becomes significantly stronger in the second phase, so you'll need all the mana you can reserve to survive.

During the initial phase, rely on regular attacks and dodges. Given the boss's large size, its hitbox is easy to target. Use the Pillar Stance to avoid ground attacks, and continue this strategy until the first phase is over.

All Staff Stances

Summons Tornadoes

Cloudtreading Deer can summon tornadoes once its HP drops by 25%. To avoid taking damage, simply run out of the area and wait for the tornadoes to dissipate.

New Skills in Second Phase

In the second phase, Cloudtreading Deer's HP resets to full, and it becomes a more formidable opponent.

The deer gains a new blood attack, hurling balls of blood at you. To dodge these, quickly run out of their path.
