Perilous Dancer is a hard combat achievement which requires the player to defeat all the Moons of Peril in one run, while only taking damage from regular attacks.

Strategy

Players must avoid damage from all special attacks of the bosses, such as the Frost Storms of the Blue Moon and the Searing Rays of the Eclipse Moon.

Being attacked outside of Eyatlalli's glyphs will fail the achievement.

The initial damage taken from the jaguar special attack that the Blood Moon uses will not fail this task, however, taking a hit from the jaguars themselves will.

The achievement is awarded after defeating the final Moon.

If you fail the combat achievement, you MUST reset the encounter by looting the reward chest to properly receive fail and success messages on following attempts.

Eclipse Moon

Entering the arena during the Clones phase is advantageous to avoid being hit by the Searing Rays.

You can avoid the Searing Rays altogether by entering when the second south-western glyph begins to glow, and killing the boss before the second special attack begins. Recommended for players that lack the equipment to kill the boss quickly.

Bringing a godsword or better, to quickly damage the boss during the Clones phase, is highly recommended.

Blue Moon

Enter during the Frost Storm phase and wait on the south-western glyph for the next round to begin. For this achievement, attempting to light the braziers is discouraged.

Using Dual macuahuitl or Glacial temotli makes quick work of the boss. Bringing dragon claws for special attacks can help kill the boss before the Weapon Freeze phase even begins.

Blood Moon

Enter the arena when the Blood jaguars keel over (signalling the end of the phase) and run to the south-western glyph to begin.

During the Blood Rain, quickly run to the north-eastern glyph and simply avoid standing on the puddles.

Using the special attacks of Dragon claws or Dragon dagger is highly recommended.

Positioning

When moving between glyphs, always position yourself so that you must only move two tiles to get to the next glyph.

Failure to do this will result in damage due to spending a tick outside of the correct glyph.
