How To Avoid |

Leaping Slash |
|
Elamein leaps at you and performs a spinning slash—she can do this twice, so you need to be ready to dodge or Brink Guard it. |
|
Sheild Bash |
|
The boss performs a double shield bash. Dodge both attacks to the side to avoid taking damage. |
|
Shield Charge |
|
Elamein raises her shield and charges at the player—she can do this twice, depending on the charge on her shield. Dodge this attack to the side to avoid increasing your electrocution meter. |
|
Electric Thrust |
|
The boss electrifies her sword using the shield and thrusts at the player, releasing an electric beam. She can follow up with another thrust, depending on her charge. Dodge to the side before she thrusts to avoid getting hit. |
|
Shield Throw |
|
Elamein throws her shield at you and can follow up with a running slash and a leaping slam. Another variation of this attack includes an Electric Slam, which is a burst attack. Dodge all of these attacks, but make sure to counter the burst attack to stagger the boss and get free hits. |
|
Electric Slash and Slam |
|
The boss powers up her sword and performs a wide slash, followed by a leap into a slam that travels forward in a straight line. You need to Brink Dodge both of these attacks, as getting hit deals massive damage and significantly increases your electrocution meter. |
|
Electric Shield Slam |
|
Elamein slams the ground with her powered shield, causing a small explosion that can be easily dodged. |
|
Electric Projectiles |
|
The boss electrifies her sword and fires multiple arc projectiles at you. Run around during the attack animation and dodge any projectiles that get too close. |
|
9-Hit Electric Slash |

Elamein powers up her sword before unleashing a series of slashes, causing electrocution if not guarded perfectly. Brink Guard all the attacks, especially the ninth hit, to stagger her for a few seconds. |

What are the Mysterious Energy-Emitting Ores in The First Berserker: Khazan?
Here’s a guide on what those mysterious red crystals are for in First Berserker: Khazan.
How To Beat Elamein In The First Berserker: Khazan
Elamein is the main story boss for the eighth mission and can be very annoying to deal with. Throughout the fight, the most important aspect is to avoid hitting her shield as much as you can. This is because the more you hit her shield, the more it charges up, allowing her to empower her sword attacks and even perform powerful slams. Powering up her shield also allows her to extend her normal attacks with different follow-ups.
A good way of damaging her would be to Brink Dodge her attacks to the side and immediately attack her a couple of times. Most of the time, she will readjust herself to point her shield toward you, so be very cautious.
Another important thing to keep in mind is to avoid attacking needlessly or dodging multiple times, as this reduces your stamina to a bare minimum. This is mainly because if you enter the exhausted state, Elamein can run toward you and perform a Brutal Attack that does a lot of damage. Try to dodge all the lightning projectiles she throws at you, otherwise, the attacks will cause a lot of Electrocution build-up.
Electrocution is another thing to worry about in this fight. As the status effect lowers your stamina recovery, you are at high risk of being exhausted more often, so make sure you instantly cure it using a Lightning Cleanse Potion. You can buy this item from the Bard, who is located in Embar Ruins and Skoffa Cafe. Equipping a Lightning Resistance Ring and Necklace can also help you out a bunch.
