Liches are More Dangerous than Wights

Dragon

Liches are the late-game variants of Wights, where the main difference between the two is a few variations of their spells and different damage output. These undead prove a challenge, but Liches are encountered later in the game!

How to Beat the Lich

How to Beat the Lich


Deal Damage While it is Channeling Spells

The Lich will be completely stationary and vulnerable while it is channeling its summoning spell. Use this opportunity to attack it with your powerful weapon skills to deal damage to it. If you do enough damage, it will get knocked down and the summoning spell will be cancelled.

You can tell when it's using the summoning spell once you see purple flames emitting out of it.

Defeat Summoned Enemies First

If by any chance you failed to prevent the Lich's summoning spell, be sure to prioritize defeating the summoned enemies first, as they can be quite a nuisance with all of them attacking you at the same time during the fight.

Take Cover to Avoid Getting Hit by Magic Missiles

Once the Lich launches purple or white magic missiles at you, you can hide behind pillars, rocks, and other structures around the ruins or cave to avoid getting hit by them.
