tips for the final boss
I know a lot of people have been having trouble with the final boss fight. I hope these tips can help at least one person make it through him in one piece. The beast can be rough but once you learn the patterns he's actually the easiest of the end game bosses.

1. In dogma's first phase, his laser can be avoided by slowly moving back and forth. Don't run from the laser and always keep the tv between yourself and the boss. When the laser switches to the other side, slowly move in the opposite direction. If you move too fast he will catch you on the other side.

2. in phase two when he does his bey-blade attack, keep running from corner to corner. When he rockets to one side, hug the walls and sprint to the opposite corner. This will give you much more space for dodging the feathers and he will always aim for where you were standing. Don't bother trying to hurt him in this attack, because your damage will be minimal and you will likely miss an attack. Instead, stand in the corner and wait for his attack sound before sprinting to the next corner.

3. most of the horsemen have one or two gimmicks. But the best tip for each of them is stand as far away from them and only move when they move. Pay attention to their attack sounds as they will often let you know which attack they are going to do.

4. famine first phase is fairly easy. Just focus on staying in the center when he bolts to each side of the room. Makes dodging the shots easier. In phase two slowly move up and down. His spits are designed to attack where you were standing.

6.Pestilence is only rough first phase. Tip here is to start really close to him. When he spits a poison bomb. Only move back far enough to get out of the way of the poison. Keep doing this with each bomb, and you should maintain a good distance. for the most part, ignore the flys unless you have items that need kills.

7. War phase one, keep going to either side of him when he throws his bomb. When the bomb is lobbed, immediately run to the opposite side of him and watch for where the bomb stops. It always explodes in a cross shape. For phase two, only move when he does, and if he dashes at you, stop shooting and dodge. IF you try to get in attacks you will be hit by fire.

8. Death phase one stand still UNTIL he summons his scythes. when they spawn you have about one second to find the opening (there is always at least one) and squeeze through them. After the attack, recenter yourself for the next wave of scythes. When the skulls start flying, unfortunately the only tip I can give you is don't panic. Small movements will save you.

9. On the beast, the only challenge is when he brings out the fires. The only thing I can say about him is don't pay attention to him at all. Just focus on dodging the rocks and fires. You will damage him over time. When he goes under the lava, always make sure to watch where he is gonna come up. And its also a good idea to hug the top of the screen until he rises back up. Just in case you don't see where he is. Another tip is always stay center of the screen when possible. Every attack he does comes from one side or the other. So you will have ample time to react.

Hopefully this helps some of you. I just had a 16 min fight with him have ZERO damage and tear buffs as forgotten. So he is possible. Good luck my friends.

Missed some later horsemen attacks (pestilence worm, war self-bomb detonation, death swing attack), but still very good.

Thank you. I should probably update with those phases but I very rarely have to deal with them or don't have any good tips for them. Especially pestilence second phase. I still have not figured out what he does because I'm usually just dodging or killing the flies.
