Tips for the fourth pantheon?
You know, besides praying. Most of the time I can make it as far as Soul Tyrant, but I haven't got to Pure Vessel yet. I can do most fights consistently, but when I reach Markoth I just spam the attack button and face-tank him. What are the good charms for this one?

Markoth requires a lot of patience, you need to figure out when to attack and when to back off, to read the fight. He's random as ducks. You can't just go and attack him blindly, you need as much masks as you can if you want to survive against the final bosses here. He's the only boss in this arena that requires extra attention, otherwise he'll obliterate you... and I know this, I'm trying to complete this very same Pantheon w/ all bindings on and I still lose to him more than I'd like to admit.

As for tips, I can only tell you that patience and practice will greatly reward you. You can also go and individually complete some bindings to get some extra lifeblood cocoons, increasing your chance of surviving.

Head on to the Hall of Gods and practice there. Pure Vessel is fast as f*ck but once you learn its patterns it's not that hard imo. Practice a few times against bosses that give you trouble the most. Once you feel comfortable then proceed back to the arena.

I don't know which charms you're running, but I remember completing the DLC using Unbreakable Strenght, Shaman Stone, Quick Slash, Sprintmaster and Nailmaster's Glory. Sharp Shadow can be useful, though be careful with it not to get hit whenever you stun some bosses (Pure Vessel for example, or Lost Kin).

My text is a mess (My English as well), but if you need anything else I'll glady help.

Stuck on this pantheon too. For Markoth, stay away as much as possible and sneak in Dash Slashes. For Watcher Knights, just facetank, Soul Tyrant gives you a lot of healing opportunities. Also, practice Pure Vessel when you unlock him until you think you can win 4/5 times.
