Dragonwilds:Kuldra/Strategies

This is a strategy guide to defeating Dragonwilds:Kuldra. Depending on the player's world difficulty, please refer to the relevant strategy section.

Inventory Preparation

Kuldra is a Dragonwilds:power level 9 boss monster of the Dragonwilds:Scorned Wilderness raid.

Foods/Drinks

For your fight against Kuldra, may it be first or multiple encounters, you'll want the following suggested items in your key bind hotbar slot or inventory:

• Dragonwilds:Stuffed Catfish which restored 200 health per consumption.
  • It is suggested to also have the Dragonwilds:Undead Delight which restores 180 health and grants the Dragonwilds:Sea Life perk, regenerating 3 health every second 1,200 second (20 minutes.)
    • If you wish not to grind for Undead Delight, Dragonwilds:Eggs Royale also grants the Dragonwilds:Sea Life perk and heals 120 health.
• Any Dragonwilds:infusions that'll buff your combat style.
• Infusions do not stack, so pick one that reduces stamina on your combat style action, or dodging.
  • Or you can drink the Dragonwilds:Pumpkin Spice Infusion for the Soul food perk, to have it and Sea Life active. (Soul Food perk will not stack if it is from another food.)
• If you're trying the Fight Cave, it is recommended that you bring Dragonwilds:Strong Tea, as it restores your Dragonwilds:Stamina by 20.

Optional additions

If fighting in hard difficulty, or wanting to speed up the fight in normal difficulty, it is advised to have these items:

• Dragonwilds:Whetstone enhances any melee weapon held by two points for ten minutes.
  • In addition, lesser Attack potion can be added for the Dragonwilds:Focused Strikes perk for ten minutes.
• Dragonwilds:Magical Focus enhances staff and wand damage output from spell attacks by 15% for ten minutes
  • In addition, Dragonwilds:lesser Magic potion can be added to increase the chance of landing critical hits with combat spells by 25% for ten minutes.

Runes and Spells

Although Kuldra cannot be attacked directly, her hatchlings can. They have teh same resistance as regular dragons.

You can also use spells to enhance your abilities against Kuldra.

• Dragonwilds:Surge would allow you to dodge attacks at a greater distance three times, costing no stamina.
• Dragonwilds:Tempest Shield for melee and crossbow users, as it blocks more variety of attacks, even unblockable ones.
• Dragonwilds:Enchant Weapon: Air to increase the attack speed and damage of your equipped melee weapon if using melee.
• Dragonwilds:Spectral Arrows increases their damage done and is worth maintaining over the course of the fight if using Dragonwilds:Ranged.

Dragonwilds:Internal Alchemy is optional to have, as it is able to refresh active food and drinks buffs, but only if you're willing to spend about 4–5 seconds of casting time, which can leave you open for attacks.

Presets

Based on the player's preferred combat style, the inventory layout should appear like this:

Strategy Guides

Kuldra has a total of four phases, the first three requiring you to hit her with the device's blast a total of six times before she starts the next phase. Unlike previous bosses, Kuldra cannot be damaged by players alone, players will require to use the anima canon to do enough damage on her before being able to enter her body and attack her heart.

Main attacks

Kuldra's many heads will have basics abilities fired on you as you are charging up the Anima Cannon. Her main head will shoot a beam of energy our of her mouth across the arena. After that, at random, each head will begin their attack before she does her beam attack again. Green will spit a sludge of poison, red will shoot 5 fire ball into the air, landing in random areas, while one of them is targeted where you last stood. The white will shoot an ice shard into the arena where it will attempt to freeze the player, and the blue will shoot lighting towards you.

Hatchlings

During your encounter, a Dragonwilds:Dragon Hatchling will fly into the arena each phase and attack you. They are just like regular dragons you fought. Killing them would give you the anima element needed to either activate the Anima canon, or activate the Anima Orb Dispenser.

Phase 1

In this phase, Kuldra will use her main attack calmly, giving you enough time to dodge and plan your move. You'll first need to get rid of the blue dragon hatchling that will appear, as killing it will allow you to absorb water anima for the Anima Pylon and the dispenser. There is also a Crystallised Anima for you, or your partner(s) to use for the dispenser. You will need to use the Anima Orb on the cannon twice, and fire a total of 6 anima blast at her. At the end of this phase, all hatchlings will automatically die, Dragonwilds:Commander Zilyana will appear with a barrier around her (like in the raid) for your protection, make sure you hide within it, or you will take rapid damage from Kuldra's special attack.

Phase 2

At the start of this phase, you will be teleported to a new platform where you will need to repeat the same action. Of course, Kuldra will first use all of her main attack more aggressively and quickly, it is advised that you dodge and avoid them first before attempting to reactivate and use the cannon. Kuldra's red head attack will now do 7 spots of his fire ball and shoot a few more of them, the green head will shoot two poison sludge, where you last stood, the white will use two ice shards, and the blue will continue to shoot lighting. In this phase, a red dragon hatchling will appear, killing it will give let you absorb the fire anima in you for the pylon.

Just like the last phase, you will need to activate the dispenser, the cannon and fire. And Zilyana will appear to protect you and teleport you to the next arena.

Phase 3

Like the second phase, Kuldra will start attacking by using all of her main attack aggressively, and at the same time now. As before, it is advised that you dodge before you start going through the dispenser, cannon activation and so on. the hatchlings will also appear as before, but as either a blue or red one. Template:Sic At the end of this phase, Kuldra will be knocked down and a bridge will open leading to her main head to enter her mouth.

Kuldra Phase 4 Safespot

Kuldra Phase 4 Tunnel Safe Spot

Phase 4

The final phase has you entering Kuldra's body and attack her heart. In here, you will have to fight Dragonwilds:Kuldra's Heart and several Dragonwilds:Heartworms. Without the worms, Kuldra can use poison explosion to damage the player, so it is advice that you use your Super Antipoison Potion and dodge, the lower the Hp the more explosion she does. Also keep an eye out for the worms, as they do respawn. Once you see the hp reach 0, Run to the exit as fast as you can. (at the moment it seems not to matter). You can safely attack the heart from the entrance tunnel with ranged or magic to avoid most of the poison explosions and rarely will heartworms spawn in the tunnel.
