The Red Dragon Walkthrough and Tips
The Safi'jiiva Siege is a special quest where you team up with all hunters in your Gathering Hub to slay Safi'jiiva. Go to the quest counter in the Gathering Hub to join the Safi'jiiva Siege. This is a fight designed for multiplayer, so it's highly recommended to fight this monster with a full party. The further you drive Safi'jiiva underground and advance the investigation, the better the rewards you'll receive upon completion.
The Safi'jiiva siege is only available for a limited time in the Gathering Hub. Players can join a siege in progress but SOS flares cannot be used.
Check Safi'jiiva info to see investigation progress.
Level Energy: This shows the remaining energy in each level of the Secluded Valley. As participants in the siege complete objectives and the energy stores are depleted, it becomes easier to drive Saji'jiiva deeper underground.
Reward Level: The higher the reward level, the better the rewards. Complete research entries and you'll accumulate points that will raise your reward level.
You can only receive a certain amount of points from other parties. If your party completes an already completed objective, the reward level will be overwritten.
The siege is completed once someone in your Gathering Hub has successfully slain Safi'jiiva.
Head to the quest counter in the gathering hub to pick up special rewards based on your reward level.
Each gathering hub investigates one specific Saji'jiiva. If you move to another gathering hub, your reward level will reset and you can obtain your rewards. You can investigate other Safi'jiiva during the available time period. Also, keep in mind that your special rewards will be available even after the Safi'jiiva siege is no longer available.
The goal of the investigation is to work together with all hunters in your gathering hub to drive Safi'jiiva to the lowest level of the Secluded Valley and slay it. As Safi'jiiva health decreases, it will suck up the energy from the current level. Once the energy has been completely depleted, it will seek out more energy deeper underground. Focus on breaking parts and using environmental attacks on top of regular attacks to keep it moving. Work with other hunters to deplete each level's energy and drive Safi'jiiva to the lowest level. Once a party in your Gathering Hub slays Safi'jiiva, the siege is complete!
Safi'jiiva requires special strategies in order to defeat
- Environmental Attacks
The perimeter of the 1st Level features several spots that can be used to greatly deplete Safi'jiiva's energy. Stagger Safi'jiiva and drive it out to the edges, where you can use the environment to your advantage.
- Safi'jiiva's Movement
Safi'jiiva will doggedly focus its attacks on the hunter that deals the most damage to it. When it's focused on a hunter, it is more likely to use highly energy-consuming attacks, so take advantage of this chance to reduce its energy.
- Drawing Safi'jiiva's Attacks
The hunter that Safi'jiiva is focusing on can draw its attacks by continuously attacking it. If the hunter fails at keeping its attention, Safi'jiiva will enter a much more dangerous, aggressive state. Hunters who are not being focused on can perform flinch shots on its head to draw its focus, so hunters with superior defensive skills can help turn the tide of battle.
- Avoiding Safi'jiiva Ultimate Attack
Safi'jiiva can unleash a massive area-clearing attack that can cause you to faint in one shot, and cannot be dodged normally. The attack has a long build-up, so once you see it coming, take shelter behind obstacles in the environment. Farcaster usage is disabled during the build-up and final execution of this attack. If you guide its beam attacks strategically, it will drop boulders that are necessary to mitigate this attack. If your party fails to get Safi'jiiva to shoot its attacks to drop boulders, your party will be unable to dodge this attack - resulting in a full party wipe and objective failure.
