Yetuga is your first boss encounter in *The First Berserker: Khazan*, and it's no pushover. To emerge victorious, you'll need to master the game's combat mechanics, utilizing dodges and parries effectively. Yetuga is known for its aggressive nature, launching frenetic attacks when its territory is threatened. It can perform both long and short-range attacks, including a leaping slam.

Here are the key moves you need to watch out for:

  • A two-hit combo starting with a left-handed smash downward followed by a right-handed uppercut.
  • A four-hit combo with horizontal swipes using either its left or right arm.
  • A downward smash with both arms.
  • A leaping single-handed smash.
  • A jumping grab.
  • A charge.

Throughout the fight, you'll need to learn Yetuga's attack patterns and strike back during the brief windows between its assaults. Parrying is particularly effective against all attacks except the jumping grab, as it not only helps you avoid damage but also inflicts significant Stamina damage on the boss. Use Yetuga's aggressive behavior to your advantage; for instance, dodging its charge and letting it crash into a wall will leave it momentarily vulnerable, allowing you to land free hits and potentially destroy the ice spikes on its back, which will reduce its attacking potency.

As you continue to pressure Yetuga, you'll trigger its second phase. When the beast roars and powers up, create some distance. It will then pick up a giant rock to smash towards you; dodge or parry at the right moment to avoid damage. Additionally, Yetuga will use a frost breath attack that creates ice spikes, so either move away or parry when the attack reaches you. Seize opportunities to use Potent Attacks, and when Yetuga becomes exhausted, unleash a Brutal Attack to deal substantial damage and bring it down.

Upon defeating Yetuga, you'll be rewarded with 4,800 Lacrima, along with Frozen Mountain gear items and the Necklace of Resolve.

That's all the essential information you need to defeat Yetuga in *The First Berserker: Khazan*. For more tips and strategies, be sure to check out The Escapist.
