You adjust the difficulty

Only his unblockable (red) attacks go through block. Its better to learn to deflect/parry his attacks tho, and move away at the spin attacks. Its been a while so I dont remember when his openings are. Probably after he does an overhead or something.

Remember you can use Rift Teleport to teleport to him from a distance, after he does an unblockable attack. Most bosses have openings after their unblockables.

You can always lower the difficulty, but keep in mind that is probably the hardest fight in the game outside of Challenge Mode fights. Well I suppose the dude you fight in the past might be considered harder but he only has one phase instead of 3.

I am already playing on easy. This is actually the first fight I’m struggling with. Thanks for the input.

you should save stamina for blocking when he used spinning attack - and try to buy healing potion as much as you can :D

Yes, if you dont have enough stamina left it wont block the attack. Only use block when you need, and if you can deflect/parry even better (that also does large damage).

Better armor, upgrade sword, food consumables bonus,etc.

I guess I'm just not good enough. Tried like 20 times and just kept dying. I wish there was a mod to lower the difficulty level. Since all saves are in the cloud importing a progression file won't work either. Damn, I really liked the story. :(

He is a bowl of fun. I am in the same spot too.

He cant be that bad on easy. Did you upgrade your weapon and use some ''gems'' on it? Do you have healing items?

If not, then you can reload an earlier save and upgrade those.

I mean ive seen people play on normal and you take virtually no damage there.

You have to craft a better armor and medicine, equip magic runes in the weapons and armors, you also have food bonuses for offense or deffense...Reset and choose good constellations star trees. Its easy if you actually do this as i said. Use stormgale upgraded and pact creatures to heal yourself. You can overkill him this way even on hard.

Do you have a screenshot of your constellation? Regarding pact creatures, I used them in Lotuscape but I had no idea you can use them in the fight. How do you do it?

Im at the end of the game myself. Select stars that upgrades stats over anything else. Stormgale upgraded heals you. Delight spell from the happy mistface pact creature heals you too. Its not that difficult really, you can abuse heal items, is like the most difficult fight in the game so simply keep triyng. You can deflect his light attacks at the right time and dodge the heavy ones around. Equip haste runes to replenish stamina faster. Dont forget to upgrade to the max and use your beast form, the one that acts like the devil trigger from DMC. I think the armor you are wearing is too weak or something, you need to forge the 530+ defense one to not take massive damage.

I finally managed to beat him and progress the story. Thank you all for your tips and suggestions. Steam commmunity is second to none!

Im glad it helped :). Enjoy the game.
