Avoid Its Growl at the Beginning of the Fight Stay Away from its Pink Aura Form Resort to Using Ranged Attacks

Avoid Its Growl at the Beginning of the Fight

Once you encounter the Dullahan, it will teleport right in front of you and unleash a growl that will render you unconscious for a short amount of time. Try to evade and keep your distance first once the fight commences to avoid being knocked out by it.

Stay Away from its Pink Aura Form

The Dullahan can transform into a pink aura that will chase you around and slowly drain your health once it catches you. Make sure to activate dash to outrun it. You can also drink curatives to quickly recover your stamina if you're about to run out of energy.

Resort to Using Ranged Attacks

Dullahan mainly uses its sword to attack you, so we highly recommend resorting to using a bow or casting spells to damage it from a safe distance. Just be aware that it can still teleport near you to unleash a deadly sword combo.

If you're using a melee vocation, you can just land a few hits at him and then hop back a bit to avoid being slashed by its sword, and then go near it and start hitting it again.
