Tips for third floor sanctum boss (Ashar Sand Pit, trail of sekhamas)

I just completed my third ascendancy so had some practice at the boss.
There wasn't any good info online so I thought I'd share what I learned about the boss:

Movement speed and chaos res are important in this fight if you want to improve your build. I bought some 30ms boots and that really helped out.

She has two different main attacks

The first is one where she slams her tail in front of her, dodge this by rolling through her or to the side at the right time

The other attack is a 360-degree tail swipe. To dodge this you either stand very close to her, or very far away. You get punished by standing at a moderate distance.

She has a special attack as well. Here she will keep digging in and out of the sand pit.

- You have to just keep moving, don't attack or dodge roll.

- Whenever she digs out at a certain point. She will form a hole in the ground which stays there for quite some time. Avoid these because you will be severely slowed, and sucked in.

- The 'advisor' Balbala will tell you to get to the platform during this attack. However, if you stand on the platform, deadly traps activate. I just avoid the platforms and walk around dodging the sand pits.

(Perhaps you are supposed to stand on the side of the platforms, and avoid this attack altogether, but I did not feel like trying it out.)

Keep it mind that it might take a few tries and some practice before you can get to the boss with enough honor and power. If you're playing on trade league you can buy the djin barya's for an egg a piece.

Good luck!
