Phase 1

Dodge Charging Bite Attack (Unstoppable Attack)

Chamrosh, Kiana's canine steed, will charge from the side of the area and snap his fans at you. This can be anticipated when a pair of eyes glow red in the forest arena.

Dodge the attack to avoid getting damaged.

How to Dodge

Avoid Ascending Feather Strike (Unstoppable Attack)

A small tornado will suddenly follow your location. From there, Kiana will ascend while riding Chamrosh and fire poison projectiles all over the area.

Dodge towards the open gaps available when the projectiles are thrown.

Use Bahman's Breath Athra Surge

If you can spare an Athra Surge Gauge, try using Bahman's Breath to cause an explosive attack when Kiana is near and recover you health on its healing vicinity.

How to Unlock All Athra Surges

Dodge Spear Throw

During the fight, a moving target cursor will try to hone in on your location. This will be followed by a spear throw from Kiana, and a charging attack from Chamrosh.

Dodge the cursor to avoid the path of the spear throw, then jump high in the air to dodge the coming charge attack from Chamrosh.

Use Verethregna's Smite Athra Surge

You could also use Verethregna's Smite Athra Surge during the dodge spear attack, when the target cursor is honing in on your location.

Parry Spinning Spear Throw

Kiana will perform an attack where she spins her spear and throws it toward you. Parry the spinning spear throw.

How to Parry

Phase 2

Parry and Avoid Kiana Clone Attacks

Once you've decreased about a third of her health bar, Kiana will begin to conjure up clones to attack you. Some clones will attack you at ground level, while others will be attacking you from the air.

From this point, parry the ground level clone attacks, then dodge the descending strikes from midair.

Avoid Spinning Spear Attack (Unstoppable Attack)

Kiana will be spinning her spear while her canine steed moves to your direction. Her spinning spear attack emits a reddish glow to shows its reach.

Head towards the opposite direction when she initiates the attack, and try jumping into the air to avoid getting hit.

Dodge Upgraded Charging Bite Attack (Unstoppable Attack)

Similar to earlier, Chamrosh will charge towards you and snap its fangs. The attack will be much more deadlier this time around, since the charge attack will be followed up by three clones striking you.

Dodge Chamrosh's bite attack, then further evade the clone attacks from Kiana to avoid significant damage on our health.

Parry Upgraded Spinning Spear Throw

Similar to the spinning throw earlier, Kiana will spin her spear and throw it towards you. The range will be much more farther, with Kiana teleporting to one side for another successive throw.

Parry the spinning spear throws when it's about to come into contact with you.

Use Vengeful Counter Against Her Midair Lunge (Reckless Attack)

Kiana will employ a Reckless Attack by taking a stance in midair and lunging straight towards you. This will be indicated by her yellow glowing eyes.

Parry this to execute a Vengeful Counter and deal significant damage to Kiana.

Phase 3

Parry and Avoid Clone Attacks Again

When you've dealt enough damage to leave one third of her health, Kiana will attack you again by using her clones to strike you.

Like earlier, parry the ground level attacks and dodge the incoming aerial descents from midair.

Dodge Charging Bite Attack with Purple Laser Breath (Unstoppable Attack)

Chamrosh seems hellbent on taking a bite out of you, as he repeats earlier attempts he made during your fight. He will now breath out a laser attack after attempting to bite you from the darkness.

The laser breath attack can be simply avoided by jumping into the air and dashing towards the opposite area from where the laser is.

Dodge Upgraded Spinning Spear Attack (Unstoppable Attack)

Kiana will also be mixing up her attacks by extending the range of her spinning spear attack. This is much more potent and deadly so be sure to anticipate the attack and dash from the attack as possible.
