How to Beat Gyalva in Ys Memoire: The Oath in Felghana

by

As a gamer diving into Ys Memoire: The Oath in Felghana, I’m finding that each boss encounter presents a valuable learning opportunity to master the mechanics. Despite the game’s relatively shorter narrative compared to other RPGs, it packs quite a punch with the number of boss fights it offers for players like me to conquer.

Initially, gamers might require some guidance to master the game, but access to the character Gyalva, Lord of the Blazing Prison is granted only after they’ve fully understood and become proficient with combat, abilities, and other game elements.

How to Beat Gyalva in Ys Memoire: The Oath in Felghana

  • Boss Location: Zone of Lava, the Escapeless Abyss
  • Boss Health: 1200 (Normal Difficulty)

Once the player has vanquished Guilen the Flame Consumer, they’ll move forward into the Lava Zone, encountering their next formidable narrative adversary, Gyalva. To make this battle less taxing, it’s advisable to engage from either end of the bridge.

In contrast to past battles, the player encounters severely restricted movement possibilities, with the bridge’s components being repeatedly disrupted by this adversary. Players will consistently leap towards Gyalva and employ wind spells to inflict maximum damage in the shortest duration possible.

Among the remarkable collection of games by Nihon Falcom, none quite compare to the thrill of the Ys franchise for me. Conquering those formidable bosses never fails to deliver an unparalleled feeling of accomplishment.

Gyalva’s List of Attacks in Ys Memoire: The Oath in Felghana

In Ys Memoire: The Oath in Felghana, although it’s a remake of Ys 3 and continues the franchise’s epic tale, Gyalva is not one of the bosses from the original game. This creature possesses various strategies, and while the combat itself may seem straightforward, it can inflict substantial damage on the player in quick succession. It will soar around the bridge where the battle occurs – frequently launching pieces of the bridge skyward with its fiery assaults.

Before engaging in the fight with Gyalva, it’s advisable to significantly upgrade Adol first, or if you’re finding the battle challenging. Enhance your equipment and aim to reach Level 21. This should be relatively straightforward if you’ve been defeating most of the smaller foes you encounter along the way.

Spinning Attacks

As a dedicated fan, I’d like to share my insights about Gyalva’s two formidable spinning attacks. The first one sees him glide across a part of the bridge, making the platforms beneath him whirl upwards. If you’re not properly leveled, this move can deal a significant blow to your health. The second attack is more sweeping, with Gyalva soaring over the entire bridge in a straight line. This causes the platforms to somersault as he passes, posing another serious threat if you’re not well-prepared. In short, these moves can be lethal if you’re underleveled, so watch out!

In order to dodge the initial assault, players should dash towards any flank of the impacted zone. But, for the second scenario, the sole secure spot lies on either ledge at the bridge’s end. Remaining close to one side is an effective strategy to ensure a safe passage to the edge.

From where I stand on this bridge, don’t linger at its very edge; it could trap me in a tight spot. Instead, let’s maneuver around the bridge for a better angle on Gyalva, then swiftly retreat to the nearer of the two ledges after striking.

Fire Blast

As a gamer, I’ll unleash a fireball onto that bridge, sending its planks skyward. Taking a hit from this will deal some damage, but it creates an opportunity for me to retaliate and land multiple hits on Gyalva.

Bursting Torches

Torches lining the bridge intermittently emit intense flares of fire, with a fiery ball passing from one torch to another. Being struck by this results in harm for the player. It can be challenging to predict when these torches will do this, but after a burst has ended, it’s safe to traverse through that area.
