Bosses that can teleport and primarily use ranged attacks can be incredibly frustrating in video games. While many players aren’t fans of this type of boss, they still appear frequently in games, and Ender Magnolia: Bloom in the Mist is no different.
After you take down Gilroy, the Administrator, you’ll encounter Professor Eliza. Although this battle is relatively straightforward, it can be quite irritating due to her constant teleportation and relentless ranged attacks. Fortunately, we have some tips to help you tackle this fight and prepare for an even tougher boss that comes next.
How to Defeat Professor Eliza

Massive Fire Orb |
Often following the Fire Orbs, Eliza will release a large Fire Orb. |
After dodging the orbs, be prepared to evade the massive orb, then hit her with melee strikes. |
One of the most challenging aspects of this encounter is continuously pursuing Eliza. She teleports frequently, and you can’t just rush in blindly since she often uses the Fire Tornados attack. If you sprint directly at her, you might end up caught in that maneuver. Be cautious, as this is one of her favored attacks.
When you’re not right next to Professor Eliza, make sure to take advantage of your Barrage skill. This is invaluable for breaking her stance. Also, when your gauge is full, look for the perfect moment to use your Attuner Arts.
Additionally, keep an eye out for her fire attacks, as these can inflict a burn effect that inflicts damage over time. While her regular attacks aren’t too difficult to handle, it’s essential to be well-prepared before you engage. Ensure you have the best totems, abilities, and gear ready for this encounter.
