How to Fight Proto Fleders

How to Fight

Fighting a Proto Fleder is exactly the same as fighting a normal Fleder, only slightly more powerful.

The best way to deal with Proto Fleders is to gain some significant distance from it so it will leap to attack you. You can then cast the Yrden Sign and wait for it to leap towards you. Dodge or roll away from the attack appropriately and attack the Fleders while it is being slowed by the Yrden Sign trap.

What Preparations to Make?

You should use your Silver Sword and coat it with Vampire oil to deal bonus damage to them. You can prepare some bombs like the Grapeshot Bomb and the Dancing Star Bomb to fight it at a distance. Also bring some Black Blood Potions to help you control the monster.

Special Sign Effects

  • Igni - If you Sign Intensity is high enough, this can burn them which can help you deal additional damage to them.
  • Yrden - This can be used to slow them down after they leap so you can hit it with more attacks.
  • Axii - This can stun them for a good duration and allow you to hit it with multiple attacks.
