Boss Fight: Modron

Modron primarily uses ranged attacks with a light bow. Avoid her arrows and try to hit her weak points on her torso and left foot. Use a stun attack after hitting both weak points.

When you get close, Modron will switch to melee combat using a staff. She will spam slow red rune aura attacks that cannot be blocked or parried; dodge these. If you stay in melee, she will set her staff on fire and perform faster, less powerful attacks. Dodge multiple times to avoid these.

If Modron runs away to heal (indicated by white runes above her head), chase her and use your bow to interrupt the healing process. If you get too close during a heal, she may retaliate with a quick red rune or orange attack. While orange attacks can be blocked or parried, dodging is often easier due to their speed.

Tips
  • Be mindful of the fire pots scattered around the cave during the fight.
  • The Brush with Death and Grit skills can be helpful.
  • If you allowed Cynon to live during "A Love Betrayed," you will have the option to spare Modron after defeating her.
  • Experience points
  • Potential choice to spare Modron (affecting Gwenydd's guidance)
