Battle Strategies
- The Lion cycles through elemental phases: frost, lightning, and wind
- During frost phase, avoid the ice breath and floor AoE — gives frostbite
- During lightning phase, dodge the stomps that create lightning fields
- The wind phase creates vacuum pulls — dodge out of the vortex
- Stay aggressive between elemental transitions for maximum damage
- Bleed builds are extremely effective — the Lion has poor bleed resistance

Best Builds for Divine Beast Dancing Lion
These builds exploit Divine Beast Dancing Lion's weaknesses and match the fight's demands.
Bleed shreds the Dancing Lion. Its large body and poor bleed resistance mean Corpse Piler procs hemorrhage almost every use.
Fire damage is effective, and Taker's Flames punishes the Lion's recovery after elemental attacks.
Bloodboon Ritual's AoE catches the Lion even during its erratic movement patterns. Fire + bleed is a strong combination here.
