The KoP NG+ final form!!!

[angelson9999]

I discovered the final form of the KoP in NG+: the King of ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥!!! I have been stuck on him for a few days now and have seen SO MUCH ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ flying around I thought i was in a toilet:
_The backwards jump every five second (approximately five meters) because he really needs it to escape P’s giant arms!
_The backwards jump every time his health bar glows white!
_If the health bar glows white just before his tantrum phase : STAGGER DENIED!
_The red eye attack! If someone has a counter to that one, PLEASE feel free to share!!!
I am seriously considering aborting this NG+ attempt. It was my first one ever and I foolishly thought it would be fun… It’s getting to be a pain…

Shot put or grenade. The shot put will stagger him for sure, if you can hit him. The grenade might stagger him if you can do enough damage before he moves away from the AoE.

The puppet string legion arm's final upgrade, attack chain or whatever it's called, can stagger as well on it's final strike, but there are several places in that whole animation where you can be interrupted and lose not only the stagger window but also a chunk of health and standing animation time.

The red eye attack bypasses your guard, but it can be dodged. If you’re close to him, he’ll follow up on it, so just do one quick attack and only punish him after the followup.

If you destroy his weapon before his health is low enough to start doing his big fiery combo, it’s easily survivable even when just doing basic guards.

Weapons that close the distance or have decent range work well: sword of the ark, puppet ripper, proof of humanity, trident of the covenant.

Shot-put are your friend.

Yeah, this one's just unlucky I had something similar with Laxasia

The special grinder that makes all blocks perfect is a cheese for the fire combo when you see him buff you should have enough time to buff yourself. Otherwise perfect block or a high guard weapon is the most optimal way.
