Using Fortify and Basalt Flasks will help mitigate the damage done. The Melee attack deals physical damage and can only be used against you in close range. The Shaper has six unique abilities you will need to look out for during the fight while also maintaining the highest DPS you can achieve. Once you take your first steps, Zana will begin a short dialogue with the Shaper and the fight will commence! Get ready to do some clicking! Before moving and starting the fight, you can charge your skills, place totems or traps. Once you have defeated the demi-bosses, it is time to take on the Shaper.
