Boss Fights

The confrontation with AT-ST will take place after you visit the Tomb of Eilram on the planet Zeffo and want to leave the planet. After returning to the landing zone, you will notice that the AT-ST is firing at the Mantis - the team's spaceship. The encounter will begin after getting close enough to AT-ST.

Boss has three main types of attacks. The first attack type is blaster strike. You can deflect laser projectiles with your lightsaber. This requires good timing, as the laser missiles fly in series. Unfortunately, successfully reflected projectiles will only cause minor damage to the AT-ST.

The second type of AT-ST walker attack is a grenade launcher strike. AT-ST scatters blue grenades in the area. They can spontaneously explode if Cal gets within their reach. In the latter case, the protagonist may be electrocuted and temporarily immobilized.

If you have enough energy to attack with the Force, you can activate the Force Push when the boss is scattering grenades, so that at least one grenade will fly towards AT-ST. Unfortunately, the boss's injuries will be minor.

The third type of boss's attack is the launch of homing missiles. Fortunately, these are single missiles and you can avoid being hit by making jumps at the right moments.

As in the case of the grenades described above, it is possible to support yourself by Force Push. You can use it to "turn" the missiles towards the machine. Then, the AT-ST may receive a higher amount of damage.

The Droid relies on melee attacks. The droid's regular attacks can be parried (the boss moves slowly which gives you a large window to parry) or dodged. The droid's red attacks (example above) have to be avoided by rolling to the side. If you fail to dodge this attack, Cal will be caught by the droid and receive more damage.

The droid is very slow and you can easily find an opportunity to damage it after dodging its attacks.

Defeating the boss triggers a cut-scene. After that, you can continue the main mission on Kashyyyk.

He has a wide range of skills - he can use a blaster, throw grenades, support himself with a shield and sometimes may charge at you with a shield.

He uses his jet pack to move around the area and attack from the air. This enemy often uses a blaster and flamethrower. Look for an opportunity to strike him with melee attacks when he reloads his weapons.

Malicos will use a split lightsaber throughout the entire duel. The boss will perform a series of attacks. Avoid interrupting them with normal attacks - wait until the series is over or you can try to parry his attacks.

The boss also has red attacks. These are primarily aerial attacks that end a series of regular attacks.

You can easily interrupt Malicos' attacks with Force Push. The important information is, however, that it will only work if the boss is performing an attack (normal or red). Otherwise, this attempt will fail - Malicos blocks any push. You will only waste the Force.

Force Push is especially useful when you are near the edge of the arena. The boss won't move too far away - you will be able to reach him faster and attack before he gets up.

Follow the same tactic used during the duel with the Ninth Sister - try to deplete the boss's stamina bar. Once Malicos loses the white bar above his head, he will become vulnerable to your attacks for a brief moment - you can attack him once or decide to make a few strikes.

The boss likes to "play" with his lightsabers. Malicos can attack you with one blade while the other is levitating. You can't underestimate this move - the boss will throw the other lightsaber at the right moment. You can try to stop the whole sequence by using the Force Push or be ready to deflect the incoming lightsaber.

In the next stage of the battle, this attack can evolve - Malicos will throw both lightsabers and perform a red attack from the air. Block the lightsabers and use Force Push to cancel the boss's leap.

Malicos can throw boulders at the hero. In the initial stage of the battle, he throws single boulders. However, in the next phase, he will throw a few of them - three single throws and a separate throw of three boulders. You can try to deflect them, jump to the sides at the right time, or run to the boss and interrupt the whole attack with Force Push.

In the second phase (the one that begins after a short cut-scene), expect occasional support from the Nightsister Merrin. She can help the main hero to stop Malicos and deal him damage. Use her help to deal damage to the boss when he is briefly exposed to your attacks.

The key thing to watch out for in the Second Sister boss fight is her unblockable attacks, indicated by when she glows red. These often come at the end of a long string of normal attacks, or right after you've attacked her. The optimal time to get in a heavy attack is when she performs her ground slam, as her lightsaber will get stuck in the ground for a moment, opening a window of opportunity. Just make sure you dodge out of the way when she leaps into the air.

Her other unblockable attack is similar, but she executes it quicker and you don't want to try and squeeze in a retaliation right after it because she'll often follow it up with another quick attack. Instead, use this time to step back and heal up if you need it

When it comes to her regular attacks, most of them are fairly easy to parry if you get your timings right and doing so will interrupt her combo. Remember, if you need time to heal or you need to get a heavy attack in, Force Slow works so you can buy yourself a few moments.

Eventually, you'll reach a stage of the fight where the Second Sister will taunt you around the side of the arena. Don't fall for her intimidation tactics because she'll zap out of your way as you go to attack her; instead, wait for her incoming unblockable lunge attack after she draws a line in the ground with her lightsaber. This attack has ridiculous range, so you need to time your dodge perfectly.

Finally, make sure you're using the single-bladed lightsaber for this fight (and most other bosses)! The double lightsaber might have increased range and faster attacks, but the single lightsaber deals more damage per attack and you won't be able to get more than one or two hits off in a row in this fight anyway. When you've whittled the Second Sister down to half health, the cutscene will begin and you've "beaten" her.

Getting the best of Trilla isn’t easy. She’s got a heap of powerful attacks to watch out for, but if you know what to look for, then you should breeze past her.

Be patient when she opens up with a long combo – Trilla is open for a couple of strikes or one powerful attack. This boss actually has a few different long combos, so don’t rush to get the hit in – instead, learn the pattern and wait until you’re confident that there’s no follow-up before leaning in to deal some damage.

Watch out for Trilla’s probe droid, it can be easy to put all of your attention on the droid, but she remains the main threat at all times. Focus on Trilla first, and parrying the droid’s shots second. When you’ve blocked a barrage of shots, use Force pull to draw the droid in and then fire it at Trilla for a tidy bit of damage.

If you spot Trilla putting her lightsaber away then watch out: she’s about to perform a devastating strike. To survive this make sure you don’t evade too soon – wait until she starts moving as she can travel across the arena with this attack.

You can drain Trilla Suduri’s stamina bar and get in a damaging flurry of strikes, and one easy way to do this is to use Force Push on her and parrying a couple of her hits.

If you’re playing on the hardest two Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order difficulty settings then you need to watch out for an additional attack where she throws her lightsaber at you and then follows up with a series of strikes – don’t just parry once or you’ll get mauled.
