Special attacks of the fourth boss in Code Vein

How to defeat Invading Executioner first phase
Just like our old frenemy, first Code Vein boss Oliver Collins, Invading Executioner fight consists of two phases. In the first phase, you will have a chance to see her special moves firsthand. Make sure to have Slow removals by your side, as her attack can make you sluggish. You'll be slowed even if you block her attacks, so try to dodge them instead.
Your best chance to deal damage is by sidestepping or dodging forward when she attacks. But don't be greedy, hit her a few times and retreat. When she hits around 60% of her health, phase two is about to begin. Use this short break for healing and buffing.

Phase two of the fourth boss battle in Code Vein
When unofficial round two begins, Executioner will try to slow you with water bubbles. She now has quite a few improved moves, so be prepared for plenty of dodging. Don't get too defensive, as you still have to deal damage. So try to evade attacks dodging forward and attacking her from behind. But just as in phase one, back off before she reacts. Although she's swift, be quicker, and victory is yours!
