Location:
Royal Palace, Waloed (Main Scenario: Across the Narrow)
Weaknesses:
None explicitly, but vulnerable to stagger.
Strategy:
Barnabas, as Odin, is a master swordsman and one of the most challenging human-form bosses. His attacks are incredibly fast, precise, and often unblockable. The key to this fight is mastering Precision Dodges and parries ('Titanic Block' is invaluable here). He frequently uses 'Zantetsuken', a powerful unblockable attack that requires a perfectly timed dodge. After dodging or parrying, counter with your fastest abilities. 'Gungnir' (Odin) is excellent for sustained damage, and 'Zantetsuken' (Clive's Odin ability) can be charged throughout the fight for a devastating finisher during stagger. The fight has multiple phases, with Barnabas becoming more aggressive and using more complex sword techniques. He will also summon phantom horses. Focus on staying mobile, learning his attack patterns, and exploiting every opening. This fight is a true test of your combat mastery.
