1818 Defeat the Commander

2020 When you arrive near the beacon tower on the hilltop, you encounter a commander miniboss. This enemy hits hard and has a large health pool, though no visible health bar appears on screen. The most dangerous element of this fight is the commander's frequent teleporting. He vanishes and reappears at random positions around the arena.

2222 Strategy: Wait for each teleportation sequence to finish before approaching. Once the commander reappears and commits to an attack combo, dodge through it and land your own strikes. Three to four quick hits is the safe window before resetting distance. Repeat until he falls.
