Stay In The Air To Avoid Low Close-Range Attacks

Your Doppelganger has a lot of fast close-range attacks but these are low & can be avoided by staying in the air for most of the battle.

Damage To Stop Fire Attack

Damage To Stop Fire Attack

The Doppelganger will summon a long breath of fire from her hands. To stagger this attack, you need to damage her enough to break her damage threshold.

Use Silver Knight Familiar To Deflect Flames

If you're unable to break the Doppelganger's damage threshold, equip the Silver Knight and stay behind him to protect yourself from the flames.

Jump When Doppelganger Bends For Dash Attack

Jump When Doppelganger Bends For Dash Attack

When the Doppelganger drops low and bends, be ready to jump. She'll do a dash attack across the screen that can do a lot of damage to your health.

Crouch Down Or Jump Behind When Dragon Is Summoned

Crouch Down Or Jump Behind When Dragon Is Summoned

When the Doppelganger summons a portal and brings forth a dragon head, crouch down or jump behind her to avoid getting damaged by the dragon's attacks.

Best Attack Opening When Enemy Jump Slashes
