The Ground Duel.

After being kicked off a high platform, I took cover from Regalla's special arrows before returning fire. The platform collapsed, forcing the duel onto the arena ground where I tried to use the Sunwing for an advantage. Ultimately, a mix of melee and ranged combat allowed me to pin Regalla down.

After kicking Aloy off that high platform, Regalla started shooting her with arrows immediately to finish the job. Aloy took cover real fast behind some wooden crates.

Taking cover was not enough because Regalla was shooting with special arrows that could break regular defenses. I realized I could not stay hidden forever, so I had to come out and shoot her back with my own bow.

We traded several shots across the gap, with each arrow striking closer to the mark.

When Regalla understood she was not winning this battle in this way as well, she changed her target to the environment itself. She aimed and shot the platform beneath my foot, causing the old structure to shatter into pieces.

The platform collapsed completely and Aloy landed on the arena ground with a heavy thud. Regalla did not hesitate and jumped down to face her as well, landing gracefully in the sand. The duel had moved from the heights to the dusty floor of the arena, and there was nowhere left for either of us to hide.

Now I finally got a chance to fight her face-to-face again, though she looked like a very tough opponent. I knew this part of the fight would require perfect timing and a lot of focus to survive.

I called my Sunwing to the arena and used my pull caster to climb onto the machine's back. I was hoping I could use the machine's power to take Regalla down easily from the air or with a powerful strike.

But it looked like the Sunwing was only for a ride during this specific encounter, not for direct combat action. I could not trigger any of its weapons, so I climbed down after I landed back in the arena. I realized I would have to settle this duel with my own hands and weapons.

I started fighting Regalla with melee weapons, using my spear to block her strikes and find openings in her armor. Sometimes I used my ranged weapons after getting away from her to keep the pressure on.

At last, after a very long and exhausting struggle, I pinned her down and ended the fight.


The next post will be coming soon. Screenshots are my take from the game and I took the game logo that I used on the thumbnail picture from online.

SEE YOU.

Really fun to read, friend. I liked how you used both melee and ranged attacks in the fight. The way you explained the cover, arrows, and final fight made me feel like I was there.

The way the platform collapsed felt like it came straight out of a movie. I liked it that you tried to bring the Sunwing into the fight. Even if it was just for a ride, it added a massive scale to the duel.

I really gotta learn how to use the air ride in battles.

Without any cover left, it really came down to pure skill with the spear and the bow to get the win. Aloy's spear combat looks so fluid and impactful in your hands.
