Where to find Rocky Avildsen

• Location: Erinyes Forest

Travel to the eastern Weeping Willow teleporter, and then start walking in a northerly direction, veering slightly west. Move along the path upward until you see a tent and a wooden platform, on which the enemy you need is standing.

Recommended Commands

The prototype of this mini-boss is unfortunately unknown, so it is unclear exactly what elements it has resistance to. However, most likely, its resistance to all elements does not exceed 10%. Therefore, in theory, you can use almost any command.

One of the best options for this is a team consisting of Nevillet (coming first in the table), who, thanks to the flight during a charged strike, can easily evade powerful attacks from his opponent. The remaining characters will maximize the damage of the main DD. Zhongli will protect him from enemy attacks.

A Freeze team led by Wriothesley (second in the table) could also be a good choice. You will be able to keep Rocky frozen at all times, preventing him from hitting you. Yelan can be changed to Xingqiu if desired.

If you do not have the above characters, then simply assemble a squad of your strongest and most well-pumped heroes.

How to beat Rocky Avildsen

The enemy has a large health bar, so get ready for a long battle. Take with you more food to restore your health and use potions that increase the elemental damage of your damage dealers.

This fist fighter mainly attacks at close range, however he has several moves that can reach you even if you are standing 5-10 meters away from him. For example, he can perform up to three ground strikes, creating shock waves moving towards your character, or jump and land in the place where the player is standing (try to quickly leave the area marked with a red circle).

Roki's attacks deal massive amounts of physical damage, but are fortunately relatively easy to dodge as most of the boss' attacks have a long charging animation. If you have not yet learned how to quickly dodge with jerks, then we advise you to take a good shieldman into your squad who can protect your heroes.

Since Avildsen is a light-type humanoid, you can easily knock him down with charged blows, but in this case he will not fall to the ground, but will disappear, and then suddenly appear next to you, immediately striking you. Therefore, always be alert to dodge in time.

Let's add that Elemental Reaction: Frozen also has only a partial effect on this boss, that is, it does not completely freeze Rocky for a few seconds, but only slows down his actions, making it easier to strike him. In general, we advise you to act as aggressively as possible against him, while not forgetting to dodge enemy attacks.

Having dealt with the enemy, you will receive the “Rocky Avildsen” achievement, for which you will receive 5 source stones and a pestilence. Note that he will respawn during the server reset, which occurs at 4 am.
