As soon as Adol arrives in Carnac during Ys X: Nordics, you will witness a sorrowful event as the Griegr raid the village, leading to the disappearance of all its residents. As you delve deeper into the narrative, it becomes clear that Jord has turned the villagers into her puppets, leading you on a journey to purify them as you explore new areas.
After grasping the extent of Jord’s powers, your second encounter with her takes place at the conclusion of the Griegr Fort on Raufos Island. In this battle, she will not hold back, and you must be fully prepared to give it your all.
Overview and Attack Patterns of Jord
Although Jord Dorsen may appear smaller than some bosses you have faced previously, she is a formidable opponent with an impressive 53,533 HP. With stats of 282 STR and 280 DEF, she can quickly diminish the HP of your active character if you’re not careful to avoid her frequent attacks.
Here are the types of attacks you can expect from her:
|
Attack Name |
Description |
|---|---|
|
Ninja Attack |
This is one of Jord’s signature moves, where she shines her red sword for a moment, then vanishes only to reappear suddenly next to your active character, inflicting damage upon her return. Be prepared to press the parry button as soon as she disappears! |
|
Slash Attacks |
These are regular attacks she carries out during lulls in the battle using either a red or purple sword. They can easily be parried, but be cautious—being hit by her purple sword will inflict Poison on your character. |
|
Speed Attack |
Jord often executes fast attacks that are simple to dodge. You can time your counterattacks effectively during this period. |
|
Red Attack |
Jord may unleash a red attack if the battle drags on. This can be dodged easily, provided you keep a close watch on her movements. |
|
Area Denial |
When Jord’s durability bar is reduced, she will create an electric field that lasts a few seconds. Stepping into this field will quickly induce Paralysis. |
Defeating Jord Dorsen
As one of the three major villains, Jord Dorsen will not be a pushover. However, you can implement strategies to gain an advantage. First and foremost, ensure you have health potions and remedies for Poison and Paralysis ready, in case you find yourself needing them.
With your supplies in order, focus on acquiring quick skills. Since Jord takes a moment to charge her red sword attack, this presents you with a great opportunity to execute a small skill before you need to parry.
At this stage, building up Adol for damage and Karja for Break is advised to maximize your effectiveness in this battle.
Begin the fight with Karja, focusing on using skills that deal high Break damage, such as Frost Impact, assuming you’ve mastered this move beforehand. Once her durability is reduced, switch to Adol and unleash your most damaging abilities.
It’s worth noting that if you can perfectly parry her normal slashes, Jord will stagger briefly, offering you a crucial window to land some attacks.
