Bloody Finger Nerijus Invaders

Description

As with all Invader battles, there’s no distinct phases in these battles. To begin with, there will be a large distance between yourself and Nerijus so take the time to prepare and, if you’re not confident in your abilities, pull him around the stream for a while until Yura summons in to aid you. If you want Yura to appear sooner, you can initiate the battle with Nerijus and after a few strikes, Yura will enter.

When fighting Nerijus alone, you’ll want to take the battle slow, don’t get greedy and rush in for an attack, instead, let him initiate Reduvia Blood Blade from around medium range and, once you’ve avoided the third slash, close in for a few attacks. If you’ve blocked a lot of his Blood Blade strikes, be sure to back away and give the gauge some time to lower before you resume your assault. Magic users have an easier time here, Nerijus will always try to close the distance on you so backpedal and use ranged magic to keep up the damage. Once Yura does enter the battle, you can let him do a lot of the work for you.

Location

Bloody Finger Nerijus is simple enough to locate in Limgrave, if you look north from Lake Agheel, you’ll see a stream leading toward the Murkwater Cave. As you head down toward that path, Bloody Finger Nerijus will invade and the battle will begin. Note that you cannot use Spirits in the battle against Nerijus but you will be aided by an NPC, Yura, who will appear once the battle begins.
