This Resident Evil 8 Village Urias Boss Guide will show you how to beat Urias, the hammer-wielding Lycan giant who is relentless with his continuous attacks. You encounter Urias two times in the gameplay, where the first boss fight will be inside the dimly lit area with candle-lit altars all around you. The second version is the Urias Strajer who you fight later on in the story.
Urias begins the fight after a roar and jumps at your location with a powerful swing of his hammer. The fight can be overwhelming when you first fight this boss. His attacks are continuous, while your own attacks will at times seem like they might not be working. In addition, you also need to prepare yourself with a weapon that works effectively in the fight, and not necessarily the most powerful weapon you can find.

Below we have detailed how to defeat Urias in the game.
What Weapons to Use
The best way you can deal damage to Urias is to have a weapon that allows you to shoot quickly, in the intervals that come in between Urias’s vicious hammer swings and slams. To effectively deal damage to the boss, you can go with the normal pistol, as it allows you to quickly hit the boss with 5-6 shots, and reload quickly as you relocate and avoid incoming hits.
The other weapon you should use is the Pipe Bomb, which will come in very handy against the two minions that spawn alongside Urias. These enemies are pretty annoying and can be taken out with a couple of pipe bombs if you can get them. The bomb will also hit Urias, as he is always quick to follow you and will get caught in one or two bombs.
Other items you require can be found plenty in this area filled with candle-lit altars. You can run around and pick up every useful item, including ammo.
How to Beat Urias
The best way to deal damage to this boss is to hit his head, which is his weakness. You can also hit its back to deal damage, but Urias will rarely let you out of his sight and will always be facing you and chasing you with his attacks. This is why you should only focus on getting five to six shots with a pistol, and then evade the incoming attacks as quickly as you can.
Urias will never stop with his attacks, even when you are attacking its head. This is where it gets confusing if you are even doing any damage to this boss. But you shouldn’t worry and continue hitting its head and wait for the boss fight to end. His attacks will range from three spin hammer swings, to hammer slams on the ground. If you have some distance between the two of
Urias will summon his minions in the fight, who you can deal with pretty easily if you use pipe bombs, or use a shotgun. Your focus should be to take out the minions as quickly as possible, or the fight will become really tough to handle with three enemies focusing all their attacks on you.
Eventually, with enough shots to the head and evading most of Urias’s attacks, the fight will end after he stumbles to the ground, exhausted and defeated.
