Night’s Cavalry (Altus Plateau) Altus Plateau Boss

Description

The strategy for Night’s Cavalry is fairly simple and straightforward. If you’re on your Torrent mount, which we’d highly recommend for this fight, you can relentlessly attack the boss by jousting him continuously. So long as you ride towards him on his right side (to the left as you’re facing him), you can avoid most of his attacks and quickly strike as you pass by to inflict a chunk of damage. All you need to do is repeat this process to gradually whittle his health down, while avoiding contact with any other enemies in the area.

The only attack that you need to be more careful to avoid is the Drag Attack, since this can catch you off guard if the Night’s Cavalry moves slightly as he’s riding towards you, or if he finishes the attack with a slam attack on the ground. To ensure that you don’t get hit by the drag attack, it’s generally safer for you to run away from it rather than try to avoid it as you charge towards Night’s Cavalry for the next joust.
