Across the Obelisk is a cooperative deck-building rogue-lite with RPG mechanics that players can either play solo or with their friends. You will need to unlock cards, create your own deck and face powerful opponents during your adventure.
This guide will tell you how to defeat the boss Elder Dryad in the game.
Elder Dryad in Across the Obelisk

Elder Dryad can be found at the Forest Glades nodes on the map during Act 1.

Select the [Combat] option here to start the fight.


Here are all the stats and cast cards that she uses during the fight so you can know what to expect.

It’s important for you to use Fire or Shadow element cards during the fight as they work the best against her.
She will summon saplings from time to time to cover the empty space in front of her after you manage to kill her minions. Killing her will also put an end to her saplings so you don’t need to focus on them.
Another thing to watch out for is the Starfall card that she uses as it can wipe out an entire team if you are not paying attention. Use your skills properly with insulate or brave to turn the tides in your favour.

The Combat Rewards for defeating her can be seen above.

You will also receive a key quest item called the Moonstone by selecting the [Loot] option and waiting for the moon to arrive.

Here are all the item rewards that she drops once you defeat her. The Dryad Mask is a good equipment choice that you can pick up if you are not sure which one to select.
That’s it, you have successfully managed to defeat Elder Dryad and unlock the Kill the Boss: Elder Dryad achievement in Steam!
