Skeleton Lord

This is a very unusual battle. This boss is made up of several lesser opponents, namely three lords, minor skeletons, and Bonewheel Skeletons, that is skeletons who can transform into wheels with spikes. All the opponents have one mutual health bar. The large number of enemies in one place and a limited field of action may prove to be the major difficulty in this fight.

Attacks:

  • Lords - their basic attack is a fireball that explodes on contact with your character.
  • Skeletons - they perform basic attacks with blades, most of which can be blocked with a shield. If you have decent equipment, these enemies will go down with one hit.
  • Bonewheels - skeletons that can transform into rolling wheels. Fighting them may be difficult, because of their number, speed, and high damage inflicted.

Tactics:

When you start the fight, first attack the lords. Their fiery attacks can inflict a lot of damage, but they are not difficult to beat due to the small amount of hit points. After defeating the lords, take care of the minor skeletons. The best way is to circle around the arena with a raised shield and repel their attacks. At this point, you have to pay special attention to the stamina level of your character. Skeletons are pretty fast, so when can no longer defend yourself with a shield, they will be able to inflict high damage on you.

Finally, you have to fight with the skeletons that transform into wheels and speed around the arena. This is stage is quite difficult, as you may be attacked by the skeletons from four sides. It is best to stand against the wall and jump away from their attacks. Deliver blows when they stop at the wall and kill them all.

Reward:

  • 15000 souls
  • Skeleton Lord's Soul
