Boss: Martyr Logarius¶
Despite Logarius’ massive arsenal of melee and magical attacks you might think this fight is extremely hard, but it actually isn’t. The truth is that Logarius’ magic attacks are the most dangerous and they can be ignored completely by sticking close to him, forcing him to use melee strikes.
Phase 1
Start the fight by rushing Logarius, rolling under or using the environment to avoid his Homing Skulls or Skull Sphere attack, and then avoid any other non-melee attacks until he begins to use melee strikes. Stick close and use your firearm to stagger Logarius, either at the high arch of his long drawn Scythe Slash Combo or at any point during his Rapier Slash Combo, and then perform visceral attacks.
In some cases Logarius will summon a single skull on his left, which you can dodge by side-stepping left, and when he gets low on health he will begin to use his Aerial Dive. In both cases, make sure that you rush Logarius to keep close and keep him for using his other Phase 2 attacks.
