How to Beat Chief Bloodfiend

Tips for Chief Bloodfiend

Summon Spirit Ash for Support

Poke From Range

Dodge Away From Blood Breath

Summon Spirit Ash for Support

The Chief Bloodfiend has deceptively fast and hard-hitting combos for its size, with its lethality compounded by the tight space you have to fight it in. Don't be afraid to use Spirit Ashes to draw attention away from you for more breathing room and space to attack.

Poke From Range

Despite the size of the arena and the speed of the Bloodfiend's combos, staying just outside the Chief Bloodfiend's range for poke damage is a viable tactic since once the Chief Bloodfiend starts a combo, it is fairly easy to avoid by running or walking backward.

Dodge Away From Blood Breath

Aside from its combos, the Chief Bloodfiend's blood breath is another way it can inflict bursts of damage, via Bleed, if you are not careful. Dodge backward from the bleed breath's limited range, as the Bloodfiend will spew its breath in succession and catch you if you try to close in.
