End Game The Titan Fight – Risen

This guide will help you defeat the titan in order to complete your Risen playthrough.

The Titan Fight Overview

After putting Ursegor’s skull back on the altar and equipping the Ocular, head into the large oval room. Essentially, the fight with the titan involves avoiding its abilities and hitting him in the right time. Read on to see what sort of abilities he has.

• Scintillating Beams
• Melting Floor Tiles
• Conflagrating Waves
• Fiery Magic Missiles
• Defeating the Titan

Scintillating Beams

During the fight, the titan will occasionally make a step forward, and start channeling an energy beam for about five seconds. It moves roughly the same speed as the player character. It means that you have the time to outrun it in either direction, as long as you do not run at the farthest outer circle.

Melting Floor Tiles

Throughout the whole fight, you’ll have to deal with the floors that will occasionally disappear. The area is roughly divided into three circles with each having around 12 tiles. You’ll notice that some of the tiles have runes on them. If it’s a brightly glowing white rune, it means that the tile will disappear after five seconds. If it’s a faint rune, it means that after the current wave of brightly glowing tiles have disappeared, that one will be the next one to start glowing. Tiles also reappear during the combat, so do not worry about losing the ground.

Conflagrating Waves

During the fight, Titan will also randomly use an ability which sends out a circular wave, covering the whole room. What indicates the ability is the moment when he raises his arms and a foot. Once it slams the ground, a blastwave will emerge. Jump over it to avoid taking damage.

Fiery Magic Missiles

This is the ability that is most often used by the Titan. It comes in two forms. He’ll either shoot them in a cone, sending out five missiles or shoot them one after another directly at you. This is the time when you raise your shield to prevent taking damage.

Defeating the Titan

During his magic missile attack, use the shield to cover yourself. Once the attack is over, the titan will get stunned for about four seconds. Use this time to get into melee range and hit him with the hammer. You’ll need to do seven hits like this. There’s no other way to deal damage to him.

Therefore, the whole fight consists of properly timing your defensive abilities and jumping around. Once he goes down, you’ll get a nice cinematic where the Titan gets imprisoned once again.

Congratulations on beating Risen!
