This game is a joke lol
Why is the mini ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ boss of the soul tyrant (the one you need to kill before entering is so ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ hard) I hit him a million times. I kept jumping a corner and slashing him in the head. I hit him for 10min straight and he wouldnt die. Why the heck is it that boring and long. ANY TIPS TO BEAT THIS stupid boss omfg. LIKE I PAYED 150 GEO to get the bench and i die to this imbicile that never dies. I NEED TIPS. I CANT keep hitting him with him never dying. HE IS A MINIBOSS OMG.

^this

also its actually not that hard it took me like 2 tries. use good charms i guess?

(i am assuming of course you do not refer to the dream version of this boss because you are mentioning benches, getting defeated by a dream boss does not send you back to one.)

Upgrade your nail man. It's only 250 geo. Although, this seems like a troll post.

idk im in city of tears and Im at a bench next to the map guy. I go up and then there is a boss that is a small version of the main one.
If you are having that much trouble with the game, its your skill level as a player that's the joke here.
You really can't afford the first f**king Nail upgrade? Its only 250 Geo! How many times could you have lost your Shade at this point in the game if you are THAT poor?

oooooh is see.

those guys are a little difficult. i cheese em by sticking around corners/platforms and slashing them when they are near, then go back into hiding. you can get pretty quick at this after a couple times, and then maybe be able to face them in a wide space (be wary of that ball that orbits them!)

He's talking about Soul Warriors, not Soul Twisters.

I think he's referring to Soul Warrior.

Like everyone else said, upgrading your nail makes it easier. Also, learn his patterns. Most, if not all, bosses in HK telegraph their attacks so it's important to react accordingly. This guy only has 3 attacks, one where he teleports right above you (dodge to the side), one where he fires off an energy ball that homes on you (jump over it), and the last one he slashes at you (jump over and pogo his head).

Also, there's a shortcut from the Soul Sanctum to the bench near Cornifer the map guy, if you take the lift on the left side (not the lift that leads to the mini boss) and slash the wall.

But for him to be talking about the Soul Warrior, he would need to have gotten the Elegant Key, and it doesn’t sound like he’s been to Crystal Peak yet. there’s another one I forgot about, that’s on me.

Also, if you are talking about Soul Twisters, they should die in 7 hits with the base nail (or 2 Vengeful Spirits and one hit from the nail), so I don’t know how you could be hitting him for 10 minutes without killing him.
If it’s the Soul Warrior, then if you dash under the projectiles they will hit the floor so you don’t have to pay as much attention to them. He should go down in 36 hits with the base nail (and each Vengeful Spirit does 3 hits worth of damage).

The first Soul Warrior is in the area before Soul Master, remember?

I honestly forgot there was more than one of them outside the Colosseum. My bad.

There are 4 Soul Warriors (not counting the Godhome ones); the 2 in the Soul Sanctum, and the 2 in the Colosseum of Fools. I am inclined to believe he is stuck on the Soul Warrior on the way up to Soul Master, because he clearly lacks the skill level to make to any of the other ones.

I finished harder games lol. This game is weird. Like 250 geo is a lot for me because everytime i ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ lose my shade its somewhere filled with the creatures i died from. And from what someone else said, its a late boss fight so its normal for me to fail lol. You fanboy
