Chief Bloodfiend Combat information

Negations (or Absorptions)

The negation numbers are the % of your damage that gets blocked. For example, if a negation is 60, 40% of that damage by that type will go through and 60% will be negated. Bigger number = less damage. A negation of 100 means no damage goes through, and a negation of -100 mean the enemy takes 2x damage from that source. 0 means damage goes pretty much as is.

Resistances

The resistance numbers are the buildup amount to trigger it. For example, if a resistance is 100 you must deal 100 points of the given buildup to trigger it. Note that these go down over time, and increase each time the effect procs. The values after the "/"s indicate the increased resistances after each successive proc.

Chief Bloodfiend Fight Strategy

The Best Tips for Chief Bloodfiend:

 

Melee Users

The Chief Bloodfiend is a boss that can be found at the end of Rivermouth Cave exploration. It can be a tough boss to defeat due to its large size combined with delayed strikes. However, this boss has a proper hitbox and predictable attack patterns which makes the fight more manageable. The Chief Bloodfiend uses a massive club and possesses a large physique, relying on brute strength rather than speed. The optimal strategy for defeating this boss is to counter every attack and retaliate in between combos.

Each of its attacks results in a long recovery period, providing opportunities to counterattack after every move the boss makes. The worry during this fight is its jumping attacks, which cover a wide damage area and can be difficult to avoid if you miss your timing. The Chief Bloodfiend can also inflict Hemorrhage through skills and attacks, but luckily, this boss is weak against Poison, Scarlet Rot, and Frostbite.

At the start of the battle, the Chief Bloodfiend opens the fight with a Plunge Attack where he lands towards you. Then, this is followed closely by 3 Quick Swing Attacks and finishes it off with a delayed swing. Be prepared to roll to the left to evade this opening attack, then do another roll to the left. While you're on this side, you are free to run back toward it and then roll forward for the last delayed swing. Once you've dodged, move in quickly to land a few hits before retreating to a safe distance.

Another move that this boss will make is the Triple Ground Stomp where the boss will stomp the ground for 2 quick steps, and end it with one delayed stomp. To dodge this move, roll to the left in quick succession, and then watch out for the third (delayed) stomp. You can roll forward right before the foot hits the ground so you can get some free hits on the boss. This pattern of dodging and countering is key to reading the Bloodfiend's attacks. Given the boss's slow recovery times, you can take advantage of these moments to do damage.

As the fight goes on, this boss will also pull off moves like Ground Slam attack where the boss jumps up high in the air and crashes on top of you. This can also be combined with a delayed Club Smash. When he's making this move, you will see him raise both hands in the air while clutching the club, and it opens its mouth right before he swings it. The moves are pretty standard and the timing for dodges is as expected.

Overall, the boss gives a simple sequence, and timing your moves correctly will allow you to chip away at the Bloodfiend's health. Always be alert for its stomping attacks and be ready to dodge. By maintaining this rhythm of evasion and counterattack, you'll find that the Chief Bloodfiend, despite its power, is a manageable boss.

 

Magic and Ranged Users

This boss is susceptible to Rotten Breath. Summon black knife Tiche, and cast Rotten Breath when aggro is on your summon.

 

Chief Bloodfiend Attacks & Counters

Attack Description Counter
Leaping Club Swing From a distance, once the Chief Bloodfiend spots you, it will leap through the air and swing its club towards you. Can be countered by rolling back once the Chief Bloodfiend is in the air.
Double Club Swing At close range, the Bloodfiend swings at you twice with its club. Roll back twice to evade this attack.
Club Smash At Close to mid-range, the Chief Bloodfiend will raise its club and smash it to the ground, creating a small damage area. Once the Bloodfiend raises its club, immediately roll to either left or right multiple times.
Ground Stomp Once spotted, the Bloodfiend will jump and stomp on you. Rolling back after the Bloodfiend jumps is the best way to avoid this attack.
Triple Ground Stomp Once spotted, the blood fiend will chase you while stomping on the ground three times. Back up and roll until the Bloodfiend finishes his third stomp.
