How to Beat Ketzuli, High Priest of the Sun

Tips on Beating Ketzuli, High Priest of the Sun
Watch out for Fire Barrage and Fireballs Stay Close During the Laser Beam

Watch out for Fire Barrage and Fireballs

Ketzuli, High Priest of the Sun, has two particularly tricky attacks to watch out for:

Concentrated Fire Beams

Ketzuli Barrage Attack
One is a barrage of concentrated fire beams that track your position. Getting caught can quickly drain your health, so keep dodging during the attack's duration!

Fireballs

Ketzuli Fireballs
The other attack consists of many fireballs traveling in a straight line in a set direction. Though the fireballs likely will not kill you, Ketzuli still attacks you simultaneously. Focus on dodging all the attacks while the fireballs are still active!

Stay Close During the Laser Beam to Dodge It Easily

Ketzuli Laser Beam
Among Ketzuli's attacks, the laser beam applying the Gamma Ray debuff is the hardest to counter. Without sufficient Fire Resistance, it can rapidly deplete your Life. To evade it effectively, stay close to Ketzuli so you can circle around him faster than the beam can track you.
