tips for Pantheon of the Knight?

[Rae]

just unlocked P4 and i'm feeling a little intimidated by the lineup. i've got Traitor Lord's patterns down and i reckon i'll be ok with White Defender and Enraged Guardian, but the rest are a bit daunting and i'm not sure how to approach P4 as a whole... any advice for me?

my go-to build is Quick Slash, Unbreakable Strength, Sharp Shadow, Dashmaster, and Grubsong, and i have all charms and upgrades.

alas, i didn't - i tried a few combos against Pure Vessel, but he's just so fast i found i couldn't let Dashmaster (plus Grubsong) go! but i could try swapping Quick Slash for Quick Focus in a 1v1 against him since i've learned to pause after hitting him anyway to make sure he's not gonna parry me. would be interesting to see the difference!

also - thank you!

My poor quick focus 😢

i'm sorry </3 i still need to improve for P5 so i'm going to try the build i mentioned, plus i want to get better at jumping over him and break my reliance on dashing somewhat, so the story's not over yet!

IDK if TC beat the pantheon yet, but I just wanted to mention that nail arts absolutely destroy Markoth. Both the great slash and the dash slash outrange the radius his shield(s) circle at and pierce the shields.

oh that's a cool tip, thanks! i tend to basically stay out of his way and focus on dodging, let him come to me, spam Quick Slash and Abyss Shriek when he draws near, and sometimes use the wall cling and Shade Soul trick for some cheap hits when he's swinging the shield around. i'll try landing a Great Slash on him first.

i've beaten P4 but not attempted P5 yet so new tips are always welcome, i'll probably try to beat Trial of the Fool first (it's the pogoing in the air that always catches me out) and i want to improve at Pure Vessel a bit more since my current strats are just too hit-and-miss for my liking. not looking forward to fighting Markoth in the ascended arena, heh.

As i said before, though, nail glory is extremely useful for this strategy,

fighting PV is the thing i'm most looking forward to actually!! Mark of Pride makes sense, especially for No Eyes and Markoth. (i just throw on Grubsong to fill the final slot)


oh thank goodness, Markoth was such a pain.

i actually found P1 the hardest to beat so far, lmao. the brothers were a bit of a learning curve, took me a while to get past them.

man i love myself (pure vessel bossfight) also, MOP is amazing for most bosses. the extra range is amazing. If you wanna know what i consider the best possible charms, its your loadout + MOP + steady body and glory instead of sharp shadow.

My personal amount of deaths (not on my steam account) is 1 on p1, 0 on p2, like 30-50 for p3, probably 10-20 for p4, and 6 for p5.

I recommend using dash slash, since it has tiny recovery.

Unbreakable strength, mark of pride, shaman stone, grubsong, and defenders crest until the bench (dc for lost kin) at the bench, swap dc out for any other one cost charm, dreamwielder, nailmaster's etc, and as for the bosses themselves, Enraged is just shade dash practice, lost kin is easy with dc for the balloons, no eyes is easy because you can heal in the bottom center, traitor is shade dash practice again, stand in the corners for white defender bcus hes like a dvd logo, bench out the dc, failed champ you can infinitely cheese by using dream nail and pogoing his armor, markoth is, well, markoth, good luck, watchers are tough, but you can heal when theres only one, and its not hard to kill one individually, soul tyrant is just tedious, and pure vessel is really, really hard, I havent beaten them
