'''Healing Totem:''' At about 50% health, Amarok will sometimes spawn a healing totem, which heals him now and then. If you have enough damage you can just ignore it and keep attacking Amarok. If not, you would o well to destroy the totem.

If you have low defense it's recommended that you use food in both food slots, since this means you can make more mistakes without dying. With higher defense, you can just tank most if not all of the hits on normal.

Warriors generally do best on the lower platform, where they can ignore the sword swing and only really have to avoid the stomp. In melee range on the lower platform, they will not get hit by the fireballs either.

Fireball: Occasionally Amarok will raise his sword and send out fireballs. They are fairly easy to avoid and will be well telegraphed where they will land. He will cast more fireballs at a time on higher difficulties.
Stomp: Occasionally he will stomp, which will do a lot of damage if you stand too close but also shoot out rock spikes. To avoid the rock spikes, run to the pit on the left. If you are on the top platform you do not need to worry about this... however...
Uppercut: If you are on the upper platform, Amarok will occasionally do an uppercut, dealing a large amount of damage. Ranged characters will generally not get hit by this as they are out of range. Warriors are generally better off on the lower platform.
Sword Swing: Amarok swings his sword in a downwards arc. If you are in melee range on the lower platform this will not hit you.
Spike Trap: During some attacks, spikes will come up from the ground in specific locations (marked by holes on the ground). Higher difficulties will have more spikes.
