Borderlands 2 Tiny Tina's Assault On Dragon's Keep Walkthrough Part 14 – A Game of Games: The Handsome Sorcerer

Head on out of the dungeon and get back outside. As you leave there is a dice chest on the right and a Mimic on the left. Kill the Mimic for the loot, roll the dice and head on outside to Dragon Keep itself.

Head to the end of the platform you are on and pull the lever to be raised to the Handsome Tower. You can either fight your way up slowly or just run on up. If you fight on through there are knights and orcs aplenty to be slaughter. There is no shortage of threat but none of it is exactly under the best of circumstances as the Handsome Sorcerer will constantly be threatening the life of the queen (though him being a bit bored makes it more dangerous). When you make it to the top you will see another portal. Just head onto it and you will be taken directly to the battle with the Handsome Sorcerer himself.

The Handsome Sorcerer:
The battles starts simply enough. The Handsome Sorcerer shields himself and you need to punch through it. This, as always, calls for Shock-Type weaponry to begin with. After a minute or so he will summon up 2 clones that will help him with the attacking portion of his plan. At present he will be using an area of effect spell, the blizzard spell you have seen some of the mages using. All of his clones will also be shielded but their shields are notably weaker. If you find yourself in a case you need a second wind then rush and attack the clones to get just that.

When you take down the shield on the Handsome Sorcerer he will start to run around for a short while. He will head for the opposite side and then stand his ground. This time he will use the Blizzard spell but also an Ice Ray attack. Neither will slow you down thankfully so just keep moving and avoid what you can. He will then teleport to one of the sides and create more clones. This round will not have shields which makes them easier to deal with. That is when the Handsome Sorcerer will start to do something very new: teleporting at you for a quick stab attack.

Get him down by a quarter of his health and he will reshield himself. Pull out your Shock-Type weapon again and rip on through it. Get through it and he will start to use the Ice Crystal spell on you. Thankfully nothing seems to happen when he is dropped to half health. It is when you get him down to a quarter left that things start to get more risky.

He will summon another set of clones and the area of his blizzard spell seems to increase. He will also shield himself again. This is the last time he will do this thankfully. From there just cut through the shield and set into the Sorcerer himself. Just before he would die he vanishes into the ground. This means it is time for his second form.

Necrotic Sorcerer:
This form of the Handsome Sorcerer is much more a minion master thank a Blaster like his last form. He will summon up 3 Reanimated Skeletons and send them after you. There is a slow trap sitting nearby him so watch for the black tendrils come up from it. He will call more Skeletons over time but it only helps to weaken them opposed to kill them (they make for great Second Wind fodder). All in all he acts like the Necromancers that you encountered down in the dungeons. He will fly around some but not do as much direct attacking. He will keep at this until you deplete his lifebar. He will then sink into the ground again and emerge as a new type. Time for his third form

Demonic Sorcerer:
This form of the Handsome Sorcerer will spend most of his time just flying around and peppering you with Fireballs. He will occasionally land and summon a trio of young red dragons to send after you. This form is also resistant to Fire-type weapons (obviously) so try to avoid using them. He will just circle, occasionally fire off fireballs and lightning bolts, and keep some dragons around to distract you. The best thing to do is keep shooting him while he is airborne and when he lands shoot him some more. When he gets lower on life he will very likely summon a flying red dragon for a while. It will only last until you break through to the end of the story.

After the final cinematic head on up the stairs and go for the cell where the queen is held. This will reveal the queen. After that just circle around and collect the loot that is getting scattered around the area. Grab the Eridium, money and loot then head over to the Queen. Once there give her 5 Eridium that she needs to cast her spell and break the curse of eternal night. Talk with Roland after everything to wrap up the main story quest.
