Thymesia is an action RPG set in a Gothic world struck by a terrible plague. The levels in Thymesia are memories of Corvus that needs to be experienced to be remembered. Varg first shows up as the boss in the tutorial you are supposed to lose to begin the game. Later in the game, you will rematch with Varg which is a long time coming. Because Varg’s moveset is the same in each fight this guide applies to the tutorial fight aside from a few strategies available.
Varg’s fight is a dance that requires dodges or parrying of his telegraphed attacks to keep pace and keep aggression to match his own. Parrying or attacking with the saber are all ways toWoundhim andClaw attacksor fast plague knife pokes can all keep whittling away at his green health without breaking aggression. Varg’s attacks are highly telegraphed which can make them easy to dodge but they deal tons of damage to make up for it. He has two phases gaining slightly faster attacks in the second phase.
How To Get To Varg
Varg is the boss ofHerme’s Fortress. His fight is an excellent top off to the area and its winding staircases and locked doors. Varg makes his first appearance as the giant knight who gives you the smackdown that starts the plot of the game but his first phase can be beaten in the tutorial for an achievement.
Varg’s Moveset
Varg’s moveset hits hard but is slow and fairly telegraphed compared to other bosses leaving ample time in between strikes to go for damage. Varg has a pool of moves that he can use in any order to form a combo of anywhere between one and three attacks. He frequently does a two-attack combo but can sometimes do one or three instead.
