Lies of P How to Beat The King's Flame Fuoco EASILY!

[@archmagiste]

Thank you! You made it seem really easy and I beat him pretty quickly!

[@CernyGaming]

Glad I could help! Well done!

[@saiken923]

Thanks a lot. I was trying to parry him and kept getting my ass kicked. Just hugging his right and dodging did the trick. I feel that this game tries to force you to parry while at the same time making every single enemy insanely hard to parry.

[@CernyGaming]

I suck at parrying. Can't do it in any soulslike, so I find other ways like this. It's why I've beaten them all except Sekiro...

[@saiken923]

@@CernyGaming I rage quitted Sekiro first time I played it. But I went back and finished it 2 times while enjoying it a lot. Give it another chance, it's easier than you think.

[@DaCoolCrushIceKillah]

Use the electric coil weapon(I personally upgraded it twice). I used a specter and threw 3 throwing cells. Also I had vitality,vigor and technique at level 19 for reference).

[@CernyGaming]

Electric does work well on this guy since he counts as a puppet enemy.

[@RajaMCool]

It does!

[@Ich_bin_Loonytunes]

At the end of the day it really was just as easy as staying close and strafing right around him in a circle. Realizing this only after dying to him for perhaps 15-20 odd times like a brain dead lemming lol. Good video

[@CernyGaming]

Happy I could help! We've all had braindead lemming moments. You should have seen me trying to parry Laxasia.

[@ExacoMvm]

Still doesn't work well. He starts to spam spin attack if you're too close and then releases the fire wave or he simply starts dashing all over the place. So no matter what I keep dying from overheating, the attacks itself aren't that big of a deal. EDIT: I got few electric grenades ( Electric Cell and Electric Blitz Can ) and that was enough to finish him off as it does massive damage, electric weapon might aswell help, I personally used the Azure Dragon Glaive.

[@alexb5548]

"Easily". The issues I'm experiencing seem way beyond what you went through. Almost like he's been buffed at phase 2. Somehow you manage to do 250+ dmg per hit ripping his HP bar down pretty quickly with basic attacks. My dmg with the same weapon at +3 barely does 170 charged. I've changed to using the blitz mace per suggestions so I can do over 200 but they're still small notches in the HP bar and I need to be at ball-tickling range to get a hit in. I can usually get him to phase 2 now, but can't get below like 40%. Your fight: he did a couple of quick attacks but mostly slow turning allowing you to get lots of small hits in. He threw 1 grenade at you and did 1 overhead charged attack. For me he often does the very quick recovery smash/fake kick, and at phase 2 blasts volleys of 3-5 grenades (dodgeable but wastes all my stamina). He even launches grenades at arms reach which are not dodgeable and sometimes knock me down and the fire kills me before I can even get up. You also didn't get the wrath of the flamethrower which is pretty much instant death. People mention using cells and cannisters but no one seems to sell them and I very rarely find them anywhere. I've died well over a hundred times now - I know because I try solo but I've also used >50 stars. I'm not great at Soulslikes but this is by FAR the most difficult I've encountered in this game.

[@alexb5548]

So attempt 283. Finally beat it. He didn't go apeshit with the quick attacks, no grenade volleys, nothing short range. I should whine more on KZbin if it means I beat him on the next attempt -_-

[@CernyGaming]

This boss marks a steep learning curve in Lies of P, which in itself is not the easiest Soulslike around. So, while this strategy may be considered "easy" for many, that doesn't mean the rule applies to all people - it's okay that you're having trouble. We all have those times. Hell, you should have seen how many times I tried to beat the Pontiff in Dark Souls 3 - it was humiliating! As for damage - the weapon I'm using is pretty good, but Lies of P gatekeeps its upgrade materials pretty well to stop people being too OP too early. My recommendation for you would be to look up if you've missed any upgrade materials, find them, and upgrade the weapon you perform best with. The Shock Stick may do good damage, but you see I don't use it because I suck with it. Make sure you equip the Puppet Destroyer's Amulet found near Krat City Hall. Don't give up buddy, you got this.

[@CernyGaming]

Oops I just saw your second comment. Good job! Sometimes all it needs is a little RNG to help you along!

[@Knight-vu4xo]

Tried this strat, maybe my rng is terrible because he dashed away and started shooting me with fireballs, like im talking projectile spam, and getting close to him didn't help either, since he just started using the flame spewing attack even more. 😢

[@CernyGaming]

Keep at it buddy, you got this

[@Lukeocyte]

Thank you. Saved me a lot of headache!

[@CernyGaming]

Happy to help buddy!

[@pc-dc4gm]

THANK YOU dodging right was HUGE

[@ChrisTtofari]

Thank you, attacking that left leg is great advice

[@CernyGaming]

Glad I could help!

[@HoneyBadger03]

Thank you so much! I'm so lost with this enemy! Will try your tactic later!

[@CernyGaming]

Hope you got him!

[@Inari-lk5bg]

OH MY GOD THANK YOUUUU ONLY VIDEO WITH ACTUAL GOOD ADVICE!!!!!

[@CernyGaming]

Happy to help as always!

[@espeditovuolo2842]

To beat him quickly, you need to increase the weapon statistic in the Hotel and be assisted by a ghost. I am the defeated him at the second try

[@alihijazi623]

Mine keeps going to the wall to cover his back it's not fair >:(

[@rezaneshat1781]

I watch this video from time to time to remind me that it is possible to win this fight. I'm on 50+ deaths I think. This is the best strategy I have seen but not enough for me.

[@gazdiq]

He never uses overhead red attack against you

[@CernyGaming]

I must have got lucky! I'd probably treat it the same as all the other fury attacks and either dodge with the Ghostwalk amulet or just scrape myself up and heal.

[@gdimfer]

They must have buffed him since your flight. His spinning attacks, if you manage to dodge the first one, now take him far away from you so you can't hit him. He also now has a right backhand attack where he spins at the waist and snacks you if you're behind him. Not fun.☹️

[@gdimfer]

Well, after 11 tries I downed him. The biggest difference was using the Generate function on the electric mace (huge damage), and also spending the 10k I had on leveling up! 😜

[@CernyGaming]

Hey buddy, glad you got him in the end!

[@dravenripley9468]

Im struggling so hard with this guy lol. Update used all of my summons now im fucked.

[@CernyGaming]

For a lot of people, he's the first really challenging one. Stick to that left leg and stay mobile - you got this!

[@HaloinfiniteEternal]

@@CernyGamingeasier said than done

[@HaloinfiniteEternal]

@@CernyGamingthis dudes beating the hell out of my ass

[@dravenripley9468]

@whoisjohnny5365 I ended up beating him without a summon lol.

[@Eihtball99]

If you need more Summons, you can farm Star Fragments at almost a 100% drop rate. Fast travel back to Krat City Hall Courtyard stargazer, turn around and go back through City Hall (killing the two soldiers) and through to the big guy in the park, on the left. He drops tons of goodies and almost always a Star Fragment.

[@the_mister_magister]

Thank you, i stopped using summon and just soloed it instead in 3 tries xd

[@rugidgaming7706]

I tried all this but the one I'm fighting his moves set is way different to the moves he's doing on your video everything is all in different order to yours as well I don't know how to defeat him he keeps changing his moves

[@RajaMCool]

I’m scared to approach the guy. He’s almost as violent as the survivor.

[@CernyGaming]

Nah you got this buddy!

[@cybergrunge3086]

There is no easy way, and it is almost impossible to kill him

[@CernyGaming]

Just takes a bit of practise buddy, you got this!

[@sarhflynn061]

I finally passed it 🙌 😅thank fuck after 60 tries i found out needed ghost and to go up a pulse refiller

[@maniliasrat7328]

thank you very much, I thought I couldn’t kill him🎉

[@KitchSquish]

He’s whopping me. I feel under leveled. I used your strat but if I get caught I don’t have enough resources or do enough damage to stick it out.

[@CernyGaming]

It can be tough to know what is best to level. Your health is important to take a hit, but be sure your "armour" is up to date. You may have missed an upgrade or two on your travels. As for your weapon , some are better than others, and damage is hard to come by at this point in the game. However, if in doubt, look up the Electric Shock Stick and electric throwables that I've forgotten the name of. Hell, use whatever throwbles you've got to give you an edge if needed. Check that you have any available amulets equipped too, and don't forget to upgrade your weapon. Google where to find the materials if you need to.

[@KitchSquish]

@@CernyGaming I’ve been trying to back track to see if there are any areas I haven’t been. I’m using the coil stick + 3. My resistance is decent but I can’t help but to feel like I’m missing something.

[@mangos1346]

his HP bar looks much higher than mine. i get 1 hit and almost die

[@KitchSquish]

@@mangos1346 I managed to beat him some time ago. Stay in on his left side, your right. You can avoid his heavy attack by sprinting past it. But stay close and bait his attacks as much as you can. Don’t let him use his aoe.

[@rickyray2794]

Where did you get that weapon?

[@CernyGaming]

Can be found in a chest. After stopping the flow of Corruption water from the Workshop Union Culvert, head back to the Workshop Union Entrance Stargazer and head to the left, away from the stairs. Follow the path through some puppet Enemies and then head down the ladder to where the Puppet of the Future stalks about. The chest can be found at the end of this path behind it. This is the blade, attached to a different handle.

[@fawazalghareeb8811]

Thank you!

[@CernyGaming]

Happy to help!

[@RajaMCool]

Is there a way to knock him out before he reaches phase 2?

[@CernyGaming]

Not really. In Lies of P you don't really have the opportunity to get "overpowered" early.

[@origosis]

They must have patched him. He hits Extremely easy to his right and will spin in the opposite direction if you go right. As well he now stops spinning if you dodge it initially and turns to come at you. Essentially he mirrors his direction if you us your strat now.

[@CernyGaming]

I tested it recently and it seemed just like usual to me. Maybe you're having some bad RNG? It happens.

[@origosis]

@@CernyGaming Rock on

[@the0ne44nd0nly]

I've never played a soulslike game befire and oh my fucking god I'm so tired 😭 it's so hard now I remember why and never played these games

[@CernyGaming]

Lies of P is a tough one to start with. Go old school. Dark Souls 1 is much more forgiving.

[@MrAttlaZ]

lol, u battled him at what lvl? it looks like u get no dmg at all...

[@CernyGaming]

I didn't stop to farm ergo or upgrade mats, so not a very high level at all. I also could have used the Electric Shock Stick for much higher damage if I'd been bothered about backtracking.

[@RajaMCool]

Is there a reason why this game is agonizingly difficult? The developers should have included easy, medium, and difficult modes. Some players actually want to get through the game and enjoy the story.

[@CernyGaming]

This is the way Soulslikes are made. They are designed with the challenge in mind and market to a specific niche of player. Every game has their goal, and this one is to challenge the player.

[@nyaangel9338]

It’s rather easy for a soulslike player, get good bruh

[@SMaddox50]

This is my first time playing a souls like, and to be honest if you are patient and are able to keep a level head it is very rewarding. I'm really enjoying myself!

[@JenovaGirzz]

Watch out, guys. Game journalist in the comments.

[@RajaMCool]

@@JenovaGirzz lol

[@snorkosaurus]

Honestly, fuck parrying in this game....

[@reversepsycho410]

Took over over 20 times

[@CernyGaming]

Me too if I'm honest

[@1.gtx_279]

Not sure how you forget to mention his overheat attack where he sets the whole arena on fire… You’re strat is 50% helpful.

[@CernyGaming]

I do mention it in the video. I talk about how he telegraphs it and what to do. When he looks like he stops suddenly and wants to vomit, run far away. It doesn't cover the entire arena.

[@DaCoolCrushIceKillah]

Make sure you'll get behind the pipes(I believe there are 4 atleast?). The fire won't get to you.

[@Kazeshini6]

Your strategy is bullshit he didn't even set you on fire like he keeps doing me even when I'm close to him he sets the whole area on fire this game is bullshit this is my second Souls game and I hate it😂

[@Kazeshini6]

Took 5 times but my strategy was to use the electric weapon

[@CernyGaming]

Hey, it worked for me just fine. I practise it by getting my strategy down and then getting the boss down to 1 hit away, then letting it kill me. Then, I replicate it several times in a row to ensure it works. Perhaps it isn't the strategy or the game that's bs.

[@David__________]

this boss is total bs you cant run away fast enough to avoid the stupid overheat attack, how tf can you can you run away when stamina is low from attacking

[@CernyGaming]

Attack conservatively. Treat it like a marathon rather than a sprint. Always keep enough stamina available for the run.

[@David__________]

@@CernyGaming 12 tries still nothing im going to farm a bit to level up my weapon

[@CernyGaming]

@@David__________ That always makes a difference! Try using a weapon with shock - I think there's a shock baton or something. That'll work faster.

[@Nikpls]

lol get good just perfect block everything.

[@CernyGaming]

NO!
