Tips
- The Arms of Sparta deal double damage.
- When fighting Cursed Remains, an Aerial Hyperion Charge (L1 + O in the air) is an effective way to grab them.
- For Automaton and Cyclops Tyrant, the Fire Blades are essential for breaking their armor.
- For Gorgons, the Plume of Prometheus is effective for juggling, and Fire Blades speed up the process.
