The Dragon-Hunter's Great Katana deals 30 damage against this boss. Melee Users the entrance to the Jagged PeakRegion, found after clearing the Dragon's PitGrace, sleeping in a shallow lake surrounded by dragon corpses. This boss is optional but can be encountered very early, so you may want to come back later. This boss deals both fire and lightning damage, with many melee and ranged options. It will move around the arena constantly, so staying on Torrent is key. The second encounter is unique, as it will be fighting alongside another drake when you start the fight with it. The other drake has its own separate health bar, and can be killed independently of the actual boss. They are first seen fighting other enemies, so its best to go in for the kill while they are distracted. The one of many melee attacks that the Jagged Peak Drake does is a tail sweep. While facing you, it might start to turn around. When it does, it lifts its tail and sweeps it around. 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 flame-lightning striking the ground in front and around it. Watch for spots where the lightning will land. 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.
