Step down and get near the red plate, then ride it and the next one to a spot where you can talk some more. Watch for the slides along the next few plates, and the fourth slide has an Elika jump at its end.
#Corrupted: Alchemist#
His attacks are hard to counter, but the trick is as soon as he you see the goo below him move.
For his changed state only Elika attacks will repel it, and that’s great news because her attacks are the easiest to pull off. To tell the difference between the sword-only shield and the Elika-only shield, he will glow blue for the sword, and he is covered in a lot of goo for Elika.
This battle is tough because you must stay away from the sides, and his button sequences are very hard to catch, but most involve Elika, and if he grabs you you need to mash attack, well hard to explain as one grab could be any button but the other is mash attack only.
Your most friendly combo is the attack, grab, jump, Elika when he’s in the attack state, or at any time because you want to avoid having to hit a counter with this guy, it’s very hard. Not how to help you counter better, but so long as you stay aggressive the fight shouldn’t last too long. ##
Talk a little after and take the plates out of here. When back to the nexus, get back on the plate and hit the platform with a yellow and red. Take the yellow one for a ride where you can grab five seeds and void about five obstacles. The into the sun part is tough because you can’t see the seeds, but they are there. When you return, just follow the path back to the tank, getting the few slide seeds you have to move to get, and then return to the nexus.
To Royal Gardens
Should be 50 or so away from 340, so we have a lot of work to do. You can either over-achieve now and go get the seeds you can see, or we’ll do it later if we must. Up to you.
So the options are to travel along all the paths you haven’t in The Vale, or just teleport to The Cavern of the Royal Palace and make your way north. We will get close to 340 just taking on the next two areas, but no matter what there will be some jumping down paths we don’t need to to get more seeds. So again, you can do that now or later. I would think later is best so you know what you need, but I’ll give you that option now.
Assuming you hit the Cavern, make your way up to the nexus point. One reason I said to wait was because the yellow plate here chips in a few seeds; you just move around a tiny bit for them after you avoid the two obstacles to start.
Then turn and take the path behind you that has the columns. Quickly Elika jump along them to the enemy and slash him before he appears; ring him out if you don’t. Elika jump to the rings, then take the columns to the wall runs and Elika jump to the solid ground.
