How to Beat Lich

Tips and Strategies

Engage in Close Combat

Engage in Close Combat
Lich is mainly a spellcaster and will fight you from a distance in this boss battle. Close the distance and engage in melee combat for quality attacks and tons of damage.

Get Rid of Skeletons

Get Rid of Skeletons
Call of the Underworld is a spell the Lich uses that calls Dark Skeleton to fight for it. Popping Lightbringer to take them out is a good way to make this boss fight go easier. Keep in mind that after killing the skeletons, it will empower Lich with Flare, an ability easily countered with a well-timed soul shield.

Attack During Animations

Attack During Animations
With its many spells, Lich's channels and charges take some time to finish. Anytime you see it about to start an animation, activate Ally Resonance to let your team rush it and get good amounts of damage.
