Types of Attacks
- Similar to Megaera, one of the most common attacks from Alecto has her charging on the spot and then dashing towards Zagreus in a quick manner, dealing damage
- That whip of hers isn't just to show - she will attack on close quarters with it as well
- At one point she will stop to charge her Rage meter, throwing orbs at Zagreus in quick succession
- You can expect less summoned enemies from her, but they will still be present
- Alecto can also summon attacks similar to Ares' Blade Rifts
Rewards
Depending on your current Heat level, you can obtain either Titan Blood or Darkness.
Alecto Strategy
It's a straightforward fight, but it's likely that it will take you a while for you to get used to fighting her. The best approach is to learn when she's gonna dash forward Zagreus, as it's one of the most common and deadliest attacks, especially if you're low on health. Watching her movement closely will allow you to see the charge, which you can then dodge when she's getting close.
The flying blades get annoying quickly, as well as the orbs. Just be careful when she starts doing these attacks, dashing accordingly and always doing a dash-attack whenever possible.
Keep an eye on her Rage meter as well - this will likely be filled out regardless of how much damage you can cause. She will attack faster and with an increase of damage, so if you have Casts at hand then use them. If not, then continue with the past strategy - dash as much as possible and do short attacks when you have a window.
