How To Beat The King of Puppets
Before going tofight the King of Puppets, here are some things that players should do:
The first phase includesfighting a gigantic robot puppet that deals massive damage over a wide area. The monster mainly relies on swinging its arms, occasionally going for other attacks. Most of the time, it will execute a two-three-hit combo, which ends with its fist being slammed into the ground.
Players should be careful of its Fury Attack, in which it stands upright and then falls to the ground. He also launches projectiles around him, which explode after a delay.
The best strategy is tosummon a specter,which will grab the attention of the King of Puppets. Players should use a Special Grindstone and abrasives to wipe off a chunk of the monster’s health. If the specter is low on health, try to run away and use a Friendship Wishingstone. The combination of the Special Grindstone and abrasives should quickly end the first phase.
Things get a lot more tricky in the second stage. After the huge puppet is destroyed, a smaller one emerges from it, which is the actual body of the King of Puppets. Unlike the previous puppet, Romeo is much more agile. Players won’t have the luxury of being able to charge in to deal damage unless the specter is still alive. If it manages to survive the first stage,it should be able to distract the King of Puppetsfor a while. Players should try to land as many hits on the enemy as possible to bring down his HP.
After the specter disappears, players will have to maintain distance between themselves and the King of Puppets. Whenever he starts to do his Fury Attack of kicking the ground, run around to avoid it, and then land a couple of blows. Once his health falls below a certain threshold,the King of Puppets will coat his weapon with flames, increasing his damage output. The King of Puppets also leavesbehind a trail of flames, which can reduce Pinocchio’s HP if he steps on it. If players have the Aegis, they canuse it to block incoming strikesand land a few hits on the King of Puppets. It isn’t a bad idea to equip a few Legion Magazines, either.
Whenever the King of Puppets is stunned, he puts his hand on his face. This is the ideal time to use Fable Attack or Charge Attack.
