Thus, the optimal way of avoiding the attack will be to dodge towards and to the side of its body, as even if the player fails to avoid the slam, they will not be vulnerable to the swipes that follow afterwards. If the player is in front of it after the initial slam, the Virgin Born will follow-up with claw swipes, which are unavoidable if the player has been staggered. If you are underneath The Virgin Borns body, there is a chance it will leap upward and slam its body downwards, damaging and staggering the player. Thus retreating to safety is recommended in order to avoid this.

Blocking is ineffective, and will still result in the player taking full damage. Telegraphed by purple sparks rising from the ground,the Virgin Born will charge up and release an AOE spell around its body in circular area, dealing very high damage and knocking down the players.

Moving towards the boss' left will cause it to overshoot the slam, but care must be taken to roll, in order to avoid the sizeable hitbox of its body. Its body will also damage the player as it slams, thus making the area directly underneath it a dangerous location for the player. The Virgin Born will hold its left hand up for a second while tracking the player, then smash it down, creating a magical AOE a split second after the initial stomp, that will catch rolls in the vicinity of its left arm. If you are at a middling distance from the boss, it will leap towards you before swiping, closing the gap extremely quickly. Rolling towards and to one of its sides is an effective way to avoid any follow-up claw swipes, leaving only the body slam and the magic stomp to react to. The Virgin Born will wind up and swipe with one of it's arms. Can be followed up with a back-hand from the same arm, a strike from the opposite arm, a jumping body-slam if you are underneath its torso or a magic-charged stomp with its left arm. Foulblood Barrier can be a valuable gift to use in this fight, as it can somewhat alleviate the high damage, single hitting attacks of the Virgin Born.ĭuring the first phase, the Virgin Born will use mostly physical swipes and slams, with one AOE spell and one ranged magic projectile: Thus, a normal or fast dodge is recommended, in order to evade the majority of its moveset. Blocking may be effective in dealing with some attacks, but be aware that a sizeable portion of its moveset strikes from above, and thus has a good possibility of slipping past your guard. The Virgin Born is massive and deals high damage, but its large size can work to the advantage to the player, as rolling into and under the boss will make many of its follow ups whiff. Note that only the chest and head of the boss will take full damage from player attacks its main arms will only take approximately a third of normal damage, and its flanks will only take around an eighth of normal damage. Due to the long recovery periods after many of its attacks, large weapons are viable in punishing the boss during the pauses between its assault.
