With no spells to cast, Bullguard can look like a daunting foe. First thing’s first, lock on with your right analog stick. Make sure you continue to circle Bullguard as you want to strike at the opportune time. Light Combos are easier to pull off than a Heavy Attack, but the latter does more damage, so you’ll have to weight up which is best for you. Personally, Light Combos allow more flexibility, especially coupled with good stamina stats, so we usually opt for this. Bullguard has a few attacks to watch out for, which are as follows:
These are the three main ones to watch out for, and the best time to hit is after the third hit with the jumping strike, and the swiping combo. While you can hit it after it rushes at you, the recovery is quicker than the other two. If you manage to nail an entire Light Combo (which ends in a Heavy strike anyway) you’ll manage to stagger it down. Eventually a cutscene will trigger where we’ll be able to use our first spell – Immobilize. Feel free to use this at any time to score a bonus Combo. And be sure to use your Roll to dodge through those attacks. If you can get behind Bullguard then that’s a bonus. Eventually, it’ll go down. |
