Last update: 11 May 2016

Description

Firesage resembles the Asylum Demon, the first boss of Dark Souls.

Attacks and weaknesses

Firesage is vulnerable to fire - contrary to his characteristics. Demon has these attacks:

1) Horizontal swings - can be blocked with a shield.

2) Overhead slam - demon raises his weapon and hits in front of him, dealing area damage.

3) Air moves - demon can fly in the air in order to take a better position.

4) Projectile - he shoots a projectile making an explosion.

Tips

1) From behind - w in this fight it is enough to run behind demon's back and stay in this position, so you'll avoid most of his blows and can hit him.

2) Do not get pushed into a corner - when bypassing a demon, you'll have to correct his position from time to time. If you're too close to the wall, he can make you pinned.

Tactics

Have you read above tips? Yes, in this fight you run towards demon and jump over him behind his back, avoiding his attacks. Stay in this position and hit. Most of his attack will bypass you except an area attack, which sometimes can hit you even if you're behind the beast's back (seldom!).
