Counter Tips

How to beat Shadow Fiend

Kill him repeatedly before he stacks souls, each death resets his bonus damage and stalls his scaling.

Magic damage works against him all game, his low armor does nothing to stop spell burst.

Eul's Scepter or Orchid interrupts Requiem of Souls and silences him before the channel lands.

Zeus reveals his Shadow Blade with Lightning Bolt, ruining his escape and survival tool.

Bully him in the first minutes before his items, a Shadow Fiend with no farm is defenseless.
