How to Beat the Fellflower

Destroy the Fellflower's Shield

Breaking the Fellflower's shield will make the Fellflower smaller. This will stop the Fellflower from summoning extra enemies and make the challenge easier!

How to Destroy the Fellflower's Shield

Hit and destroy the Arcane Fruits

Destroying the Arcane Fruits will lower the Fellflower's shield level. Arcane Fruits will spawn at random points in the area, and sometimes even in the air! You'll need Bow and Catalyst-users in your team to bring floating Arcane Fruits down.

Use Pyro Attacks on the Fellflower

Using Pyro attacks directly on the Fellflower will also lower its shield level. Doing this while attacking Arcane Fruits will help you destroy the Fellflower's shield even more quickly!

How to Stop the Fellflower's Shield from Regenerating

Collect the Arcane Essence

The Fellflower can restore its shield with the Arcane Essence scattered throughout the battlefield. Collect the Arcane Essences as soon as they spawn to prevent the Fellflower from recovering!

Arcane Essence drains your HP

Picking up Arcane Essences will make your active character gradually lose HP for a short amount of time. It's best to switch to a character with a high amount of HP before getting any Arcane Essences!

Tips for the Fellflower Boss Challenge

Challenge the Fellflower with friends

It's a lot of work trying to destroy Arcane Fruits and collect Arcane Essences all at the same time. You can look for fighting buddies in our Co-Op guides to make the challenge easier:
