[@GrayAndGrey]

He always teleports behind you when aggro'ed. Roll behind him and stay there during his initial barrage. The last attack almost always repeats with that somersault finisher that tracks you, but can be dodged, giving you enough time to backstab him. As he recovers, you can use a fully charged strong attack to do massive poise damage (large weapons are recommended to stagger him with the strong attack; maybe even use the fully charged second attack to break his stance altogether) When he recovers he will do a regular combo or the spinning attack. Both can be dodged by rolling behind him during his recovery animation and backstab him again. His speed is what makes him tricky to deal with.

He also had the Old Hunter Bone that let him teleport-dash, and Numbing Mists to make it so you can't heal.

I way I see it the only reason the two have it compared to the other banished knights made me think their well established banished knights and that is why they are so powerful and are the only ones wearing the unaltered version. The way he slashes the swords at you is very telling it looks like he slapping you with pillows and doing all that because he mastered his style which be awesome to be able to do that like him. I think it speaks volumes to why their the hardest enemy being the closest to a boss without being one.

This is why learning to Parry is so important. The hardest bosses trivialized.

[@Masheen]

It’s not fun or exciting to trivialize bosses for the most part imo. Parrying Gwyn in DS1 for example, turns the fight in to the most anticlimactic final boss in the series. Don’t get me started on Pontiff. Why would you want to ruin such a good fight?!

[@alzhanvoid]

​@@Masheen Yes, I absolutely would. Parrying in of itself is immensely satisfying, especially the part where you shove a sword through your enemy.

[@Masheen]

@@alzhanvoid It is satisfying, however, you need to know which attacks can be parried beforehand. I just don’t see the point of it unless you’re practicing for like a speedrun or hitless. It’s more fun imo to just learn the moveset, especially if it’s your first playthrough. Learning to dodge attacks perfectly and what attacks you can punish is just as satisfying if not more satisfying if you ask me. You get to experience and feel the fluidity of the whole fight. Boss fights are like a dance and I think most people prefer to master the dance. I would like parry a lot more if there was some indicator of what attacks can be parried and perhaps make the parry window a bit smaller. That way it’s a high risk high reward choice that you can practice in real-time. Edit: I mean a bit like the red symbols in Sekiro. The red symbol that pops up whenever a non deflectable attack is coming. I would like something similar in souls but instead for attacks that can be parried. Then you can choose to go for the parry or play it safe.

[@kylepratt425]

​@@Masheenthat's my biggest issue with parrying is you can't really use it as a strategy on early runs against bosses since you won't know if it's a non-parryable attack or if you're just missing the window
