Tips for defeating Scourged Sister Delyth

As soon as you enter the boss arena, kill the two enemies on the left side of the arena. After that, you will see Scourged Sister Delyth at the bottom of the stairs. As you approach, you will see that she has a blue health bar. This means that she is protected by a parasite.

You can deal with the parasite in two ways:

  1. Destroy the parasite using your Umbral Lamp. It appears to the right of where Delyth is standing at the start of the fight.
  2. Lure Delyth up the stairs and out of range of the parasite. This is the easiest of the options.

You can easily bring Delyth’s health bar down using a long-range weapon since she isn’t great at distance during the first phase of the fight. Take advantage of her slow movement and hit her from a distance to keep her stunned.

When the boss reaches half health, she will transition into her second phase. During this time, she becomes more deadly and her head gets a yellow orb around it. When she traditions, you can run down the stairs to quickly destroy the parasite if you didn’t before though it is not necessary if you keep her at the top of the stairs.
