ఌ The Tree of Men is a Boss in Salt and Sanctuary

ఌ Location

Coordinates: {X:41469.28 Y:28467.85}
Boss Flags: Make sure to talk to Masterless Knight and Despondent Thief before this fight. / Merchant progress


ఌ Combat Information
Attack Types: Fire traps in the area, physical damage, knockback.
Weak vs: All Elements
Strong vs: Slash attacks

ఌ Phase 1

You must attack the Chained Men that comprise the tree to weaken it. Use the platforms left and right of the boss to get high up and reach the enemies, but be mindful of the fire-spitting traps that are set up
If you stay on the lower portion, the knockback from his attacks will likely push you down to your death: jump right before or roll right as the stomp happens to avoid it
Try to stay on the 2nd and 3rd level platforms (the first two non-destructable ones) on either side. This gives you the best access to the men that compose the tree and also helps prevent getting knocked off by the tree's feet.
If you die from knockback, your Salt will be in a Salt Bat who you can defeat easily when you come back.

ఌ Phase 2

After all Chained Men are dead, the only weak spot left is the head. Go up the LEFT side of the platform and attack the head once or twice, then drop down to avoid the fire trap
The boss will also run his arm across one of the top two platforms based on where you are standing. Bait him into attacking then leap up (or down) to avoid it and the flame trap.
Once his health reaches about 10%, he gains a fire-spewing attack that covers a wide range and does a fair bit of damage. Use a fire resistant shield such as the Phoenix Rondache or the Raider's Targe to nullify the fire damage. Following this spray, its head will bow down, allowing its vulnerable spot to be hit.
There is a way Phase 2 can be cheesed. Stand on the top left platform at the edge facing The Tree of Men. Using a fire resistant shield block every time the fire of jet behind you goes off as well as when the Tree uses his fire-spewing attack during the final phase (remember blocking works even if you're facing the other way and stamina will gradually recover even while blocking). The Tree will launch melee attacks in a predictable pattern. Jump before each attack and counter-attack once you land (be careful not to move forward or you'll fall off the platform). If the timing is such that jumping will lead to you getting hit by fire from behind block both the Tree's melee attack and the jet of fire from behind then recover stamina waiting for the next round.
