How to Beat Ruin Drake - Earthguard and Attack Patterns
Avoid its Energy Torrent Attack
The Ruin Drake: Earthguard can periodically release a torrent of energy that deal AoE damage. This can be avoided by moving away from the Ruin Drake and out of its AoE, or deflect it with a character's shield.
Be Careful of its Rushing Attack
The Ruin Drake: Earthguard will rush at the character and attempt to headbutt or hit with its tail, which is easily avoided by dashing at the last second or generally keeping your distance.
Elemental Resistance Based on Damage Taken
The Ruin Drake: Earthguard gains Elemental Resistance based on the previous main Elemental DMG that it receives, making it a tough enemy to beat!
A good strategy is to hit it with Physical attacks or use strong elemental attacks that can deal as much damage as possible in one strike.
Watch out for Infused Elemental Energy Torrent
When absorbing an element from the previous Elemental DMG it receives, the Ruin Drake: Earthguard also has a chance to attack with Energy Torrents affected by the element.
Hit its Weak Spot
To temporarily bring down the Ruin Drake: Earthguard, hit the weak spot at the center of its body when it's exposed. You can also aim for the head when it's glowing and charging up!
