Spirit Flame

Spirit Flame

Spirit Flame is an attack that fires three balls of malice that relentlessly pursue the target. You can dash, but it will eventually catch up to you, so you need to create a larger distance by rolling.

Dark Laser

Dark Laser

Dark Laser is an attack that charges dark energy before blasting the target with a powerful purple beam. The area in front of you darkens during the charging animation, so it is essential to roll to avoid this.

Blizzard Spike

Blizzard Spike

Blizzard Spike is an attack that creates a giant lump of ice and hurls it at the target. This skill is effective against Dragon Pals, but it doesn't occur in rapid succession. Therefore, try to maneuver around Shadowbeak to avoid taking damage.

Iceberg

Ice Pillar Attack

Iceberg is an attack that summons a sharp ice lance under the target. If you get hit by this, you will be frozen. When the area around your feet turns red, roll and avoid the attack.

Icicle Cutter

Icicle Cutter

Icicle Cutter is an attack that creates a crescent ice blade and fires it toward the target. You can dodge it by rolling or dashing since the attack speed is slow.

Dark Ball

Dark Ball

Dark Ball is a skill that unleashes a sphere of darkness. The attack motion is quite long, so try to move to a pillar to redirect the attack towards it.

Divine Disaster

Divine Disaster

Divine Disaster is a skill where Victor and Shadowbeak charge forward while generating orbs of light that emit beams, which can capture and move toward targets. It is still possible to dodge these attacks by dashing.

Cryst Breath

Cryst Breath

Cryst Breath is an attack that enshrouds the enemy in a frigid blast of air, dealing continuous damage. Retract your Pal if their health is low and reuse them after the attack finishes. You can also dodge this by dashing.

How to Defeat Victor and Shadowbeak

Tips for Defeating Victor & Shadowbeak
Upgrade Weapons and Armor
Prepare a Dragon Pal
Make Use of Pillars
Conserve Stamina

Upgrade Weapons and Armor

Enhance your equipment and shields

When challenging Victor and Shadowbeak, who have the highest HP among all bosses, it is recommended to upgrade your weapons and armor to the highest level. You should also prepare a large amount of ammunition for your guns.

Before attempting to battle Victor and Shadowbeak, make sure to reach Level 50, prepare your weapons, and add Dragon Pals for your team.

Prepare a Dragon Pal

Prepare a dragon-type Pal

Since Shadowbeak has the Dark attribute, it's good to prepare a Dragon Pal for battle. These Pals are rare, so try to get them through breeding or by capturing Dragon field bosses.

Make Use of Pillars

Fight while positioning between two pillars

During the boss fight, try to maintain a position between the two pillars in the area, as they can block most skills. In addition, attacks that can penetrate the pillars should be avoided by maintaining a distance.

Conserve Stamina

Conserve stamina as much as possible during the battle

Victor and Shadowbeak have many attacks that can be avoided by rolling, so avoid constantly dashing and try to conserve stamina as much as possible during the battle. If you use stamina recklessly, you won't be able to dodge and may get hit by their attacks.

Organizing a Dragon Attribute Pal

It is recommended to add a Dragon Pal to your team since it is the weakness of Victor and Shadowbeak's Dark attribute. The boss also has Ice attacks as its second attribute, but even if it's the weakness of the Dragon type, it wouldn't be a concern if you level them up.

Fill the available slot with Daedream

After organizing your two to three main decoy Pals, fill the remaining slots with Daedream since they can provide additional attacks by being in your party. It is also useful to level them up for extra damage.
