Despite mixed reception and many technical difficulties, The First Descendant continues to draw in players. To spruce up the gameplay and add challenge, the game features powerful enemies along the way. Most of the time, they can be defeated without any extra tactics, yet there is one dreadful boss whose difficulty seems to be rather distinct from others. If you would like to learn some tips about defeating Dead Bride, you’re in luck, as here you will learn strategies that will allow you to deal with this nightmare.

Dead Bride strategy in The First Descendant

Undeniably, Dead Bride is a boss in The First Descendant that is more lethal than others. Some of its attacks have the potential to ruthlessly one-shot you or your teammates if you are not cautious enough. Without further ado, let’s analyse what can be done to increase your chances of victory:

  1. Use your scanner to reveal weak points of the boss. It is crucial to focus on those as once their hue changes to yellow, you will be able to use your grappling hook to close on it and destroy it. Once it’s done, it will stagger Dead Bride, allowing you to dish out plenty of damage safely.
  2. Places where the armour has been removed will do bonus damage to your foe. Use this to your advantage.
  3. Keep your distance. Employ long range weapons like a sniper rifle to focus armour parts from safe range. The only moment that it’s somewhat safe to get closer is while the enemy focuses on one of your teammates. However, once it starts turning your way, start enlarging the gap between you.
  4. Watch out for the Ice Dome attack. You will notice that the bride turns white and becomes invulnerable to any source of damage. It’s your best cue to run away as far as possible. Make sure to use grappling hook to quickly evacuate from the area of destruction.
  5. Since Dead Bride’s main element is Chill, try attacks that inflict fire damage. Obviously, chill will hardly do any harm to the boss.
  6. Do not come unprepared to the fight. It is recommended to be at least level 37 or higher to tackle this opponent. If you are below that, farm experience first to increase your chances of survival.

Hopefully, with all those tips you will be able to best Dead Bride. It’s all about preparation and situational awareness. Play it slow, play it safe and prevail. Good luck!
