The shade is considered one of the smaller boss-type enemies. They carry a large sword and have a decently large health pool. As with most enemies, they will take a go down pretty quickly if you throw a fireball at them, but with a shade at full health you may have to hit him an additional time. The shade has a large sword that will do a high amount of damage if it strikes you. Like all of the bosses, the shade won’t attack right away; you will be allowed to hit them a couple times before they strike, but this is a trap. Hit the shade once or twice and block or roll away as you go in for a few more swings; kill the shade and move on to your next target after collecting a large amount of points with your victory.
