In Crimson Desert, in Chapter 4 during Main Quest: Gate to the Otherworld, you get the objective to approach Tenebrum and use Force Palm to subdue Tenebrum.
This is a special type of boss fight.
First, reveal Tenebrum’s weakspot using Blinding Flash: hold L1+R1 > press R1 / LB+RB > press RB. Aim at the flying specter and it will show a square shape on it. You only need to do this once and the game gives a tutorial screen about this feature.
To defeat Tenebrum you must hit him multiple times with Force Palm while flying in the air: Double press Square (X on Xbox) to jump and use your wings. Do this over the middle of the plaza where the floor is missing, where Tenebrum flies around. The wind will catapult you up to Tenebrum. In midair press R3 / Right Stick to perform Force Palm. Hitting Tenebrum can be tricky because he flies around constantly.
It’s best to attack when he stays in the middle to charge up an attack. If you get hit by his projectiles you will fall down and take fall damage, but can heal back with Dpad Right using food items.
If you run out of Spirit, hold L3 + R3 (Left Stick + Right Stick) to restore Spirit. Every few Force Palm attacks you will run out of Spirit and must redo this. Hide behind a pillar while recharging Spirit.
Overall it’s an easy “boss” fight, just a confusing one.
