Combat Strategies
Stab Attack
This attack is extremely fast, as the Wind Serpent Dragon will first gather power in mid-air, suddenly moving its body upwards and rotating, before instantly stabbing to the target location. When you see this movement prepare to dodge immediately, moving away from your previous standing position. After performing this move, the dragon's head will momentarily be stuck in the ground, allowing you to unleash a full combo attack during its recovery.
Continuous Spit Attack
The Wind Serpent Dragon will first turn upside down in the air, then spread its wings, focusing its gaze on the target to gather power, before unleashing a series of ranged attacks towards that target.

Attack Sequence
The attack sequence for the Wind Serpent Dragon is 1: Claw Strike, 2: Bite. The dragon will rise up and charge its claws before swinging them towards the target, followed by two quick bites. Note that there is a 2-second pause between the bites, requiring rhythmic evasion and defense.
Tail Strike
This attack is executed with a tail swipe while airborne, with no prior animation. It is particularly important to be cautious of this move when the enemy is in the air.
Rolling Attack
After landing, the Wind Serpent Dragon arches its body into an S-shape, briefly charges, and then rolls in the direction it is facing. The roll distance is short, allowing for direct defense or evasive rolls.
