Surtr

Surtr is the Guardian of Icefire Treetop.

Glossary Entry
''The first giant, who trapped the very fires of chaos inside a massive suit of armor. He is said to have enough power to burn the world to a crisp. Once that power is fully awakened, he will make his way to the surface. For now, he is limited to repeating violent outbursts due to his stupidity.''

Revealing the Ankh

 * Location: (C-3)
 * After finding the Light Scythe, give it to Sinmara.

Attacks

 * Sutur throws his hand in a downward curshing motion. At the end of the fight, Surtr will do this in quick succession.


 * Surtr advances his head and drops fire tears that leave a trail. This attack can be interrupted by stricking Surtr's head before the first teardrop.


 * Surtr leaves the screen by on side and after a delay, throw a punch from the same side. Once during the fight (after enough damage was dealt), Surtr will throw a second punch after withdrawing.


 * Surtr punches the wall several times to make a lot of rocks fall.

Strategy
You will quickly find that it is very easy to fall to your death fighting this boss.

You should whip the blocks above you so the terrain doesn't change too much. Having the Gauntlet and Vajra help a lot, too.

Otherwise, just don't fall, and move to the far left/right of the screen whenever he walks off-screen to try to punch you.
