How to Beat Successor of the Claw
Location: N/A
- A strange creature, this one. An amalgamation of anthropomorphic feline and a fiery entity, bearing large, crimson claws, two tails with balls at the end, and a flaming fury that makes her a formidable enemy.
- She’s very agile, therefore always be ready to strafe or dodge in order to avoid her. She may begin her assault by sending out multiple fire projectiles in multiple directions; get out of the way.
- She will then charge at you, you’re given a momentary interval to attack her.
- Afterward, she’ll leap back and charge at you once more. Once near, she will do several sweeping attacks, if you do not block you will sustain fire damage that will continuously do damage.
- You must always be on the lookout for her charges and sweeping attacks. Attack whenever she isn’t moving.
- Do not remain too close to her as she’ll unleash a wall of fire around herself which will do immense damage. You will see the fire build up around her so you’ll know when to make your egress.
- In phase 2, she begins utilizing her sword, making unbelievably quick slashes. If you see her stomping the ground and reaching for her sword, stop attacking and be prepared to block or dodge.
- At one point she’ll create a pillar of fire, this serves two purposes – to damage you and to distract you. She is likely to slash at you after creating the pillar so be ready with a block or a dodge.
- She will cycle through these attacks, go for the offensive whenever she’s done with an attack. You receive the Blazing Claw as a reward for defeating the Successor of the Claw in Code Vein.
