Invasion Executioner is a boss that uses water. Her attack applies slow status on the player. In addition, her scythe attacks have a large range - this combined with the fact that she can inflict slow can be deadly to the player. Prepare a large amount of Anti-slow - it will allow you to get rid of this negative status. Infusing your weapon with electricity should also help.

The strategy for the first phase is to stay close to Invading Executioner. She will attack you mainly with her scythe. She can attack 2 times, slightly delaying the second hit, which can hit you even when you are behind her. The boss also has a vertical attack during which drives her weapon into the ground. This attack is very straightforward. At this point, you should focus on getting her off balance as soon as possible. Attack her from behind. If you move away too much from her, she can create an underwater explosion right beneath your feet - you have only a moment to dodge this attack. She signals this move with her hand glowing red.

The second phase begins when the boss starts to pour water on herself. When that happens, she will drive her weapon into the ground and start spinning, shooting water projectiles. Dodge to the side to avoid taking damage. In this phase, the boss increases her speed. The most dangerous new attacks are, e.g. her charging towards you while standing on the weapon or a leg stomp. If you move away from her too far, she will charge towards you. Never dodge backward - wait for the perfect moment to dodge to the sides or straight. Remember that she can perform two charges, one after the other. Keep in mind that if you avoid one attack, you need to prepare for the next. Stomping works similarly to the attack during which she drives the weapon into the ground. However, stomping also creates water which makes this attack even more dangerous. It is important to keep a close/medium distance and not let her do the charge which can take up most of your health.
