This one is from the Dunley Farmlands area and he will arrive at level 58 of the game. Throughout this particular guide, we will show you how you can defeat Octavian the Militia Captain. It is not going to be easy but you will definitely find this guide helpful in order to make the process a little bit easier.
How to defeat Octavian The Militia Captain in V Rising?
To start off where can you find Octavian The Militia Captain? He can be found in the Bastion of the Dunley slightly to the right of the center of the Dunley Farmlands.
Well, you must be thinking what powers does Octavian the Militia Captain have? His powers include the following:
- His Vampire power is called Mirror Strike.
- His structure is Anvil.
- The first recipe he uses is Dark Silver Ingot.
- The second recipe is Dawnthorn Regalia.
- And the final recipe is Dark Silver Weapons.
The gear and the scales that we will recommend you to carry to defeat Octavian the militia captain are as follows:
- Healing items are an absolute must because Octavian hits very hard and he will definitely hit you so you need some healing items in order to heal quickly and not die.
- You have to choose a few spells which will either protect you or heal you. The fight will be basically a slugfest and your best chance of not going down first is having a way to restore your health in the middle of the fight while not getting injured.
Now finally how can you beat Octavian the Militia Captain? Octavian is a seriously tough melee brawler who will engage you in Melee Battles. He is very fast, his attacks will hurt real bad and they can also inflict stun debuffs on you.
It is going to be very difficult to avoid Octavian due to his agility and that’s why you should go into battle expecting to take a few hits. Before joining the fight prepare accordingly and bring some healing items with you as mentioned above. If you want to stay away from Octavian and don’t want to engage in melee combat then it’s not really gonna be that useful because his ability allows him to move very quickly and he will very quickly come to you and hit you with melee attacks. So, instead, try to focus on circle-trafficking him and avoiding any direct attacks by getting a good angle in close quarters.
Here is my little guide – to kill Octavian, you need of course highest gear level possible (61), good blood (rogue), and right selection of skills. And yes, use Brew of ferocity before fight.
Magic – 1. Barrier with skeleton. Skeleton works great as he distract Octavian. 2. Any shield spell. 3. Dash – frost dash with shield or chaos double dash.
Weapons. 1. Iron slashers. You wont believe, but this is only right weapon for dealing this boss.
What you want to do is, arise skeleton first by blocking any Octavian attack by barried (Ward of damned). Then, when Octavian will switch to skeleton, attack him by slashers q (fast dash back and forward), then go with E (invisibility) and put some hits on Octavian back. Use second shiled when nessesary. When Octavian will summon archer, use Q on archer, then go E (invis), hit archer from invis – that will stun him, make few hits and finish archer with F and mouse click. It can be done really quick.
But here is main trick – after 50% health loss, watch Ocavian, and when he will announce his spinning crazy ult… HIT E RIGHT BEFORE HE ULT AND GO TO INVISIBLE STATE. OCTAVIAN DIDNT CAST ULT WITHOUT SEEING YOU. Thats it. That simple. No more ult. No more boss.
