Jagged Peak Drake Boss Guide Jagged Peak Drake Boss Video Guide. Jagged Peak Drake Fight Strategy The Best Tips for Jagged Peak Drake: Use the Rotten Breath incantation to inflict Scarlet Rot Use the Speckled Hardtear Crystal Tear to increase fire resistance The Dragon-Hunter's Great Katana deals 30 damage against this boss Melee Users The Jagged Peak Drake can be found sleeping in between the Suppressing PillarLandmark and the Finger Ruins of RhiaGrace in the open field. This boss is optional so you can choose to take it on now or when you are much stronger. This boss deals fire damage and lightning damage, with only 1 melee attack and mostly ranged elemental attacks. It will use up the large area by flying and leaping around sometimes while performing an attack as well. The Jagged Peak Drake fight is a unique fight, as it will be fighting another dragon when you start the fight with it. Try to ignore the other dragon, as you want it to keep dealing damage to the Jagged Peak Drake. If you end up damaging the other dragon, that's fine as long as you minimize the damage you're dealing to the other dragon and keep your focus on the main boss. The 1 melee attack that the Jagged Peak Drake does is its tail sweep. While facing you, it might start to turn around, when it does, it performs a sweep attack with its tail to deal damage to you. This can be easily indicated as it takes a while for the Drake to turn around, so you will need to time your dodge roll right to avoid receiving damage. You can dodge forward to also get closer to it so that you can perform close-range melee attacks on its legs to break its stance to further deal heavy damage to it. It also has a few attacks where it will be stationed in one location in the area. One of which is when it plants itself on the ground and breathes fire in front of it, this attack can be easily indicated when it has fire in its mouth and starts to swing its head slowly from side to side. When you see this, that is your signal to run to the sides to avoid the flames and to catch up to it to deal damage to its sides as it will only direct the flames in front of it. Another attack is when it lets out a roar followed by lightning bolts coming down in front of it, this move is called Lightning Down from the Sky and this can be indicated when you see streaks of orange connecting to the ground as it roars. Just like with the fire-breathing attack, run in the opposite direction and get out of the AoE. Alternatively, you can also try to run to its sides, and go around the boss. The Jagged Peak Drake has a few leaping attacks that it performs. One of them is its heavy stomps which it will leap into the air, hover a moment, and stomp down heavily onto you. This attack can be indicated when it hovers momentarily in the air. You will need to time your dodge towards its back legs right when it stomps onto the ground, this will avoid the damage and get you closer to attacking it. The next leaping attack is its leaping fire-breathing attack, It will leap up and then breathe out fire when it hovers down backward. This leaves a large AoE on fire so you will need to run or dodge roll out of the indicated orange glow on the ground. It will land a distance away from you so you can either catch up to attack it or wait until its next attack. A good strategy here is to utilize Torrent to make this fight easier, as with all instances of dragon combat. You can ride around the area to evade the dragon's attacks while also chipping off damage by attacking its legs. You can dash away out of harm's way with Torrent, so you can move in and out of combat, making this fight easier if you choose to go on horseback for this fight. Once you defeat the Jagged Peak Drake, it will drop 90,000 Runes, 1 Dragon Heart, and 1 Dragonscale Flesh. Magic and Ranged Users Strategy Writeup for Magic Users Jagged Peak Drake Attacks & Counters Attack Description Counter Tail Sweep While the Jagged Peak Drake turns to face you, it will swipe its tail at you and deal damage upon contact. When it swipes its tail, you can perform a dodge roll forward to avoid getting hit by its tail and to lessen the distance to attack it. Heavy Stomps The Jagged Peak Drake will leap into the air and hover a little before stomping down heavily at you. It will hover quite a bit before stomping down so you can time when to dodge and roll forward to avoid the damage and to gain closer to attack it. Fire Breaths While the Jagged Peak Drake is planted on the ground, it will swing its head and prepare to breathe out fire from its mouth in the direction in front of it. When it starts to swing its head and have fire in its mouth, you will need to run away towards the sides. You can gain up to it and attack its legs to break its stance. Leaping Fire Breath The Jagged Peak Drake will leap and breathe fire downward while leaping backward which will cause a large AoE of fire. When you see the Jagged Peak Drake leap backward, you should start to dodge roll, or run away to avoid the AoE. Lightning Down from the Sky The Jagged Peak Drake will plant itself and raise its head to perform a loud road, lightning bolts will come down in a line in front of it. If you're standing in front of the Jagged Peak Drake while you see it raising its head, that is a sign to run towards the sides and gain up to it to attack it.
