The fight with the tragic Dr Ridley Hermann was featured in The Last Faith demo. However, now, in the game’s finished state, there is even more of a challenge, with extra move sets and patterns.
Dr Ridley Hermann doesn’t pull his punches. This mutated doctor has worked to fight the curse that also hangs over our protagonist’s head. However, in the process of cleansing, he becomes a horrible monster, akin to the story of Jekyll and Hyde. It is up to you to defeat Dr Ridley Hermann and continue to fight another day inThe Last Faith.
Dr Ridley Hermann’s Move Set
I find that with The Last Faith, beating bosses is muchmore about learning move setsthan healing. This is not a unique mechanic to The Last Faith, but it does mean you need to keep your head on a swivel. Dr Hermann has two stages. These are the moves you need to watch for and how to stay ahead.
First stage
Second stage
A lot of the same moves are reused here, but with added speed or damage. These are the new ones to look for.
The best times to attack Dr Ridley Hermann in The Last Faith
I personally found that the first stage could be easily beaten by simply taking my time. I didn’t rush my attacks and used the wind down from the swings to really get the hits in. It was possible to get a full combo in before retreating.
In the second stage, I used the point where he was hanging to do the most damage. I also found that after the moving puddle stage, there was a long cooldown. I closed the gap between myself and Dr Ridley Hermann to really bring the pain in The Last Faith.
