Centuries of Glory Burned Away Strategies and Tips

Pass Through the Flames

While most of the areas in this mission will be covered in flames, you can still pass through them as they don't deal significant damage.

Avoid Passing Through Open Areas to Reduce Dragon Attacks

As much as possible, avoid having to move through the areas outside as this exposes you to attacks from the dragon. Should you need to move outside, try to find another area with a roof as the dragon can't attack you this way.

Taotie

Taotie mainly makes use of abilities instead of basic attacks. These abilities can be dodged and easily played around by paying attention to its animations. Take the time to observe its attack patterns and respond accordingly.
