Defeating Legiana - All Attacks, Tips, and Tricks

Hey there, hunters! ThrillBone here! Today, we're diving into a comprehensive guide for Legiana. 

We'll cover its attacks, share some valuable tips and tricks, and help you conquer this icy adversary. Legiana is one of the monsters you'll face in the story, specifically in Chapter 10's "Glacial Gaels." 

The encounter begins as a five-star challenge and becomes a significant test of your skills. Let's embark on this journey together and learn how to overcome the Beast of Prey and Splendor.

Weak against Fire and Poison

Meet Legiana

Before we delve into its moves and strategies, let's get to know Legiana a bit better. This beautiful creature belongs to the wyvern species and is commonly found in swamp biomes. Its elemental affinity is ice, making it a master of chilling attacks. Legiana's weaknesses lie in fire and poison elements. When it comes to breaking parts, you can target its head, back, both wings, and tail.

Now, let's look at some key information that can help you during the battle:

After each of Legiana's attacks, there's a vulnerability window. Use these moments to unleash your own attacks.

Poison is the most effective element to use against Legiana. It not only deals damage but also prevents Legiana from flying and using its ice elemental attacks.

Ground Attacks

Legiana has a set of ground attacks that can catch you off guard. Here's how to deal with them:

Legiana Running Bite

Legiana charges towards you with an intent to bite. Watch for the signal—a pause as it opens its mouth. Dodge twice if you're close and once if you're farther away.

Jumping Scratch

Legiana leaps into the air and tries to scratch you with its claws. When you see it pull its head back and prepare to jump, roll backward to avoid this attack.

Tail Swing

Legiana swings its tail in a 180-degree arc to hit you. The signal is when Legiana looks behind and raises its tail. Roll backward to evade this attack. It often occurs when you're positioned behind the monster.

Tail Slam

Legiana performs a front flip, slamming its tail and releasing a line of icy damage. As a signal, it will jump into the air, creating a trail of ice from its tail. To dodge, roll to the left or right—avoid rolling backward, as this attack has significant range.

Spinning Ice Attack

Legiana envelops itself in ice and spins, creating an icy wave. This is one of Legiana's strongest ground attacks. Its signal is evident as Legiana stands tall, flaps its wings, and ice emanates from its wings. Roll backward to avoid the incoming icy devastation.

Flying Attacks

Legiana's aerial attacks can be equally challenging. Here's how to handle them:

Flying Bite

Legiana attempts to bite you while airborne. When it pauses, pulls back its head, and opens its mouth, roll left or right to escape its bite.

Spiral Charge

Legiana charges like an ice-covered drill. Watch for the signal—a moment when it pulls back its head and kicks its feet up. Roll left or right to evade this attack. Pay attention to its feet and wings, which wrap around it and provide a clear window for dodging.

 Gust of Ice

Legiana throws a gust of ice at you. It's a powerful ice attack, and the signal is unmistakable. Legiana spins in the air and surrounds itself with ice before using this attack. Roll left or right to avoid it.

The Roar

Legiana's roar can stun or knock you back if you're not guarding with the sword and shield. When Legiana pulls its head back and takes a deep breath, dodge right before it unleashes its roar. Keep in mind that the roar can occur both on the ground and while flying.

Tips and Tricks

  • Now that you're familiar with Legiana's moves, here are some tips and tricks to help you tackle this challenging foe:
  • When using a bow, aim for Legiana's wings and head. If you're a melee user, focus on its head or its wings, if you can reach them.
  • Poison is your friend. Using a poison element weapon will help mitigate Legiana's ability to fly and use ice elemental attacks.
  • Legiana often has a long pause after attacks. Seize these moments to deal damage, but remember that its attacks are swift. Be prepared to dodge right away.
  • Keep an eye on your surroundings, especially if you're dodging a lot. You don't want to find yourself trapped in an unfavorable position.
  • You might want to consider using a light or heavy bowgun. If you're familiar with Legiana's attack patterns, you can dive and dodge like a pro.

Legiana can be a tough opponent, especially if your equipment isn't up to par. This guide should help you overcome the challenges this icy wyvern presents in the story.

Your feedback and support are greatly appreciated. 

Good luck, hunters, and I'll see you in the next one!
