After depleting his health a little, he’ll switch to using a staff where he uses spells like Crystal Soulmass, Crystal Soulspear, and Crystal Greatsword. You can block them with your shield, or roll out of the way. His attacks are very swift, and his patterns consist of mostly regular slashes and thrusts. Most of his attacks are fire-based, so equipping fire-resistant armor and equipment will help you out a bit in this fight.Īt the start of the first phase, the Soul of Cinder will attack you with a fire longsword.
The Soul of Cinder has two health bars, and he changes his attack patterns very frequently in the first phase, so this fight may take a bit of practice before you get comfortable and familiar with his patterns.
Here he is: the final boss of Dark Souls III.
