I'm completely stuck on the final phase of the "Hollow King" in *Legacy of Ashes*. I can get through his first two forms by memorizing the attack patterns, but when he splits into three shadowy reflections in the throne room, I just can't keep up. The arena gets covered in that persistent dark mist that drains health, and it seems like the reflections have a shared health bar but I can't tell which one to focus on. I've tried a pure magic build and a quick melee setup, but I always get overwhelmed about two minutes into this phase. I watched a brief boss fight walkthrough that made it look easy, but they were using gear I haven't found yet. Is there a specific strategy or an item I might have missed that makes this phase manageable, or is it purely a test of reflexes?
That final phase in Hollow King sounds brutal, especially when the throne room goes dark and you cant tell which shadow to hit. I get how you feel.
Have you tried focusing on a single reflection and letting the others drift for a moment before you swing again?
I did something similar with a shield build in Hollow King and it gave me room to breathe while the reflections shuffled around.
Some players swear by buffs that boost survivability in the mist or a talisman that slows that drain, so you dont melt in seconds.
Do you have a quick retarget option for the reflections when the mist hits?
That walkthrough looked slick but gear matters a lot in this game and the patch can make it feel unfair when you are stuck.
If you want to keep going what tiny change would you try next a stat swap or a different weapon for Hollow King?
