Dual Cultist Boss Guide
Last updated: August 2026
Ashfrost Hamlet Encounter
North Mana Source: a bird-headed Priest opens alone, then vomits a smaller flying cultist. Both share one health bar. The large priest tackles from range early; when the small one appears, the large body moves to the sides and inhales, locking free movement while the flyer shoots spikes.
You cannot land meaningful melee Strikes on the priests during side inhale. Focus the smaller priest, bank marks from feather dodges, and Strike when it re-enters the arena. Side tornadoes force lateral movement while you wait for that window.
Priority Tips
Treat the flyer as your Focus target and the big priest as a lane hazard. Greedy three-mark plays during inhale almost always fail. After the clear, Monastery Courtyard / memory progress continues the hub story.
Embedded clear video shows Normal mode pacing for learning shared-HP dual targets before True Difficulty hides the bar entirely.

Frequently Asked Questions
Who should I Focus?
The smaller flying priest — marks and Strikes on it drive the shared HP.
Why can’t I Strike during inhale?
Side inhale lockdown blocks melee Strike windows — wait for the flyer to return.
