Boss Fight: Battle Royale

General Information: You will face all eight members of the Order of No Quarter in a random order. These fights are identical to previous encounters.

Strategy:

  • After each fight, a food platter fully restores your health.
  • If you have health remaining, immediately engage the next knight instead of eating.
  • Only go for the food platter when your health is low. This allows for a more aggressive approach.
