![]() Some notable attack windows are when he performs his Stab & Slash he has a moderate recovery time after the second attack in which you can safely get one or two hits in. His melee attacks have a bit of weight to them and he does short wind-ups before attacking, similar to but not to the same extent as Margit at Stormveil. When fighting this boss, you want to maintain a medium distance to avoid many of his attacks and only close in during openings. He utilizes Black Flame spells similar to the monks earlier in the tower. The Godskin Apostle is a powerful boss equipped with a twinblade that has a sickle-end for slashing and a blade-end for thrusting and stabbing. Use Glintstone Stars, Glintblade Phalanx or any multi-hit spells that deal Magic damage to break his poise.Maintain a medium distance from him at all times.Do this a few times and the fight is done. Use a bleed weapon with the BloodFlame enchantment, and land a 3x charged combo attack when he is sleeping to do more damage/ bleed build up than performing a critical hit would do. If he exits the cloud, a second pot will put him to sleep (doesn't work with online players summoned). If the pot is a direct hit and he stays in the cloud, 1 pot will put him to sleep. Use sleep pots with a strong spirit summon such as Lhutel the Headless +4 to bait the Apostle to provide an opening for the pot to land.Both characters will raise their hands over their heads to call the other back, at which point they will spawn in at what seems to be a random area. You can get 4 hits at least in if you start hitting him as soon as he starts the call. When he does, Attack! This window will allow you to take him down a lot of health in a short period of time. However, if you are fighting him alone as the Tall Guy is gone at the moment, you won’t have long to fight him before he pauses to call his buddy back. While in the first phase it’s pretty easy to get in close on the big guy, he’ll do an AOE attack in the second phase if you’re too close, so it’s one hit and back off if he’s doing anything but rolling in phase two. Aside from that he has a large area of effect attack and a very fast thrusting attack, both of which are easily avoided. He’ll continually roll into the base of the statues and you can likely get a couple of hits in by standing on top of the rubble. ![]() The rolling attack that he’ll do will almost always be stopped by the monuments if you can get the proper spacing before the attack. The second phase of the Big Guy is going to have one key thing you need to remember and that’s if he starts rolling you need to get behind cover or behind what used to be cover. These special attacks are peppered in with his standard attacks, so anything you could hit him with in the first stage you can basically do the same in the second, the easiest openings are rolling towards him when he jumps or use the sickle to pull you towards him. Make sure to be blocking once you get inside for the quick counters he has and wait for the next opening. These attacks are his most common in this stage so if the big guy isn’t within distance or isn’t winding up a fireball attack make sure to get your hits in. If the big guy isn’t waiting with a fireball or thurst, take the opening and go for two attacks. If it’s the spinning sickle attack roll towards the boss and through the spinning attack. Both of these can be dodged quite easily. Tall Guy has two other melee attacks, one where he’ll spin his sickle and the second is a looping circle of a melee attack. This fight is all about taking what they will give you and not just trying to hit them everytime there’s a perceived opening because those openings close quickly. That is of course, if the big guy isn’t prepping an attack of his own. If you can decipher which one is the area of effect attack and which one is the twirling melee, you can roll in on the twirling melee attack and get at least a hit or two in on him. He has two powerful magic attacks, one which has area of effect and the other where he’ll twirl around aflame. The Tall Guy in the second phase has numerous attacks to deal with that are different than before.
