Raisa Volkova, Satan's Daughter | Boss Battles Castlevania: LoS 2 Guide

Raisa Volkova, Satan's Daughter

After Carmilla's boss fight, this encounter will be a child's play. During the fight, Raisa will use the following attacks:

• Charge attack - an attack which you can't block, but it's slow enough for you to dodge it with ease.
• Different combinations of melee attacks - all are quite slow and you can block most of them, which should open her to your counterattack.
• Stomp - Raisa will smash the ground, creating a shockwave spreading in all directions. To avoid it you just have to jump over.
• Attacks using waves of energy - the only dangerous attack in her arsenal. Regardless of the distance between you and Raisa, she can (and will) send a wave of energy, which you cannot block - the only way to avoid taking damage is to dodge it. Just before she attacks, her wings will start to glow bright purple - if you are close to her you must immediately get away, as you can't dodge this attack if you are close to her.
• Attacks using energy projectiles (when she starts using after her health bar goes below 2/3) - from time to time she will jump up on the ledge and starts shooting energy projectiles resembling a mortar at you. Be on the move all the time and you should be safe from this attack, and even if you are hit with some of them, those projectiles deal minor damage. If you want to attack Raisa when she does that maneuver, use your Chaos Bombs.

Attacks using energy waves are the only ones that you should pay attention to.

By using the above tips you shouldn't have any problems with defeating her - try to stay close to her and avoid her charge and energy attacks and she will pose no threat.
