Laser Beam Spell

Dark Alliance Laser Beam Kronus
Kronus Seven Scars fires a beam at you. This beam does not deal that much damage but hits multiple times, and becomes a threat when added up together. You can telegraph this attack as he'll be charging it up before casting. Just continuously dodge until he stops casting it. You will get Cursed if hit by this.

Energy Blast

Kronus Seven Scars releases an AoE blast that damages anyone nearby. The AoE will be indicated by markings on the ground. This has a long cast time and you'll see him charging it up, so just dodge out of the area once he starts. You will get Cursed if hit by this.

Be Aware of your Surroundings

Dark Alliance Kronus Surroundings
Due to Kronus Seven Scars' teleporting and swift movements, and the fact that he looks like the other Cultists, it can be easy to lose sense of where he is. This is dangerous since at any point he can just start spamming spells at you. Make sure you know where he teleports and always have him in your line of sight.

Defeat Minions First

Dark Alliance Defeat minions Kronus
This fight will be a lot easier if you prioritize killing the other Cultists and the Duergar in the area. Their spells will deal a lot of damage and can interrupt your combos and knock you down. You can use AoE abilities to clear them out. Kronus Seven Scars is helpless when left alone so you can attack him freely.

Evade Constantly

Dark Alliance Evade Constantly Kronus
Due to barrage of spells that can be launched by Kronus Seven Scars and his minions, you'll need to make sure that you're dodging and evading throughout the fight. Getting hit by one spell could lead to a domino effect of getting pinned down by more of them.

Wait Until He's Exhausted

Dark Alliance Kronus Exhausted
After casting a number of spells, Kronus Seven Scars will become Exhausted, indicated by a yellow outline. Attack him from behind and get a critical strike.
