Elder Geryon Knight in Devil May Cry 5

Where to find it: Mission 05 - The Devil Sword Sparda

Character: V

The boss will try to attack you with charges, which you must avoid at all cost. In the background, you can attack the enemy with the Griffon and Shadow, but you must be careful during the fight because the boss is able to quickly eliminate your allies and you will have to resurrect them. Elder Geryon Knight will shoot at you with freaking death rays so that you don't feel too comfortable.

After some time, the boss will begin charging up, and the world will start to resemble a spiritual dimension. The boss will then teleport itself, it will be much faster and stronger. Avoiding attacks is a priority at this stage.

After some time, everything will return to normal. However, the enemy will start to use big flails - when they hit you, the time around you will slow down and your movement will be very ineffective. Make sure to avoid this attack, because it is easy to get hurt.

Also, beware of an attack in which the boss drives the sword into the ground and creates discharges around it. This attack is particularly painful for your companions, so keep an eye on their health bar and heal them if need be. It is a good idea to call the Nightmare when the enemy is standing still for a moment.

To win a skirmish, avoid enemy attacks, use your summoners in the background to fight the enemy and calmly strike the enemy from a safe distance.
