How to Summon the Boss?
To summon Kenda, you need two Withered Masks. You can get the Withered Mask from the Goblin Base. After you kill the Kenda, you can make the Withered Mask. The recipes required to craft a Withered Mask are:- 3 Earthly Pyroxene and 3 Resin. After you obtain 2 Withered masks, you need to go to the base of sealing, where you can use it to summon Kenda.
Tactics to Defeat Kenda Boss in Dawnlands
As I previously mentioned, Kenda is an easy boss to defeat if you know the right way to fight with him. When you summon him, he will do a swing attack, which will deal a lot of damage, and it is hard to dodge his swing attack as it has a massive radius. To beat him, you don’t want to use close combat. You want to use ranged weapons, which can help to escape his attack.
The best weapon against Kenda is a Bow and Spear, but I recommend using a Spear as it deals more damage to him compared to a Bow. If you cannot maintain distance from him, you can use a Bow and ride a horse, as it will be easier to dodge his attacks and can be easy to draw if your HP is low.
He does a Charged attack. When he does a charged attack, you want to go to a Hard structure, such as the Big Stone at the base of summoning. When Kenda Charges into the Stone, he will be stunned and vulnerable, which is the best moment to beat him, as you will deal a lot of damage to him this time.
Best Backup items for fighting with Kenda
