Reprogrammed Magnaguard’s Attacks

This boss is fast. With quick strikes and leaps, this is an enemy that can give anyone a tough time. While its normal attacks don’t hit particularly hard, it makes up for a lack of raw power with quick hits. Be ready to block and parry its regular attacks, while keeping a close eye out for red attacks that have to be evaded. You’ll be fighting within a confined space, so you won’t have a lot of room to get away from your opponent.

Electrostaff Leap

This is a red attack. As such, you won’t be able to block or parry this deadly attack. Instead, you’ll need to evade any attempt the enemy makes to strike you with this leap. The enemy moves very quickly, so you’ll have to be extremely quick to dodge. If you can’t dodge, you’ll be dealt a significant blow that will likely make you reach for a healing stim.

Electrostaff Lunge

Reprogrammed Magnaguard will occasionally lunge at you with its electrostaff. If you don’t dodge it, this attack will hit you for a lot of damage and take you off your feet. While off your feet, you’ll be pretty vulnerable and have to get back up.

Utilize Your Stims

The problem with engaging such a fast enemy in such a tight space is that it’s very hard to use a stim. Your animation can be interrupted, which will stop the heal from going off at all. If that happens, you might just get knocked out and have to restart the fight. If you can find a window where you aren’t being attacked, work in a quick heal while you can.
