Eragon

Very Disappointing

For those who read the book and watched the movie, chances are that you hated it, Iam I Right? For those that watched the movie and liked it, the game is a major let down. As bad as the movie was the game was worse. Compared to the book the movie and the game both were abominations to the author.

Defeating Durza

Hint by Mystic2166 on July 26, 2007  |  report this hint

There are two stages to fighting the evil Shade. During the first stage he will teleport around, slashing at you with his claws and shooting streams of flame. He will charge up his fire attack. When he does, run up to him and press X or Circle to grab him in a "full nelson" move. Keep tapping X, Square, Triangle, and Circle and Brom will come over and hit him with his sword, Zar'roc. When the Shade breaks free, hit him with your sword when he gets close. Get him to half health and the second stage of the battle will begin. In the second stage he will continue to teleport around, but will also change from the fire stream attack to another. He will float in the air with a large red bubble shield around him. Many Scimitars will fly off the walls and will shoot through the air towards you. After they stop, run up and attack him.

When the final battle starts with Durza, hold L1 + R1 and shoot Fire Arrows at him on his demonic steed. When he fires purple missiles at you, release R1 and keep L1 held. Press X rapidly, and Eragon will deflect the missiles back at Durza. However, when the Shade fires Fire Balls, you cannot deflect them; just dodge them. Continue this until he is dead. There is a secret egg in this level, but it is hard to find. Look for the telltale blue dot on the screen.
