In V Rising, spells are a vital aspect of the game when it comes to combat. Moreover, the nature of the spell you use often determines your entire playstyle. The only way to unlock newer spells is by defeating V Blood Carriers, who are the main bosses in this game. 

Leandra the Shadow Priestess is one such boss who not only provides you with the final Tier 1 Unholy spell point but also gives you the recipe to make Scourgestone, which is a very important mid-game resource. Here’s an article to help you find Leandra the Shadow Priestess and defeat her in V Rising.

Leandra the Shadow Priestess is a Level 47 boss who spawns at the Church of the Damned in northern Dunley Farmlands. Moreover, reaching her arena is quite difficult due to the Church being at the top of a mountain. Additionally, the mountain also serves as a graveyard, which means undead enemies spawn quite often in large quantities. You have to make your way to the top to challenge Leandra. 

Leandra the Shadow Priestess deserves her name because of how she manipulates shadow during her fight. Her attacks are quite easy to dodge as she hurls orbs of darkness towards you. However, they do multiply as the fight goes on, and near the end of the fight, she throws three orbs at once. Your best option is to use any ranged spells that you are comfortable using. 

Her main damaging attack spawns a shadow assassin that dashes at you to deal damage and knocks you into Leandra’s attacks. We recommend using your counterspell or teleporting away when the assassin dashes towards you. Leandra’s unique attack makes your screen go dark, and she spawns multiple assassins that dash towards you. They glow purple in the dark, so that is your only way to see where they are coming from.
