King of Puppets can be a difficult boss to defeat. The fight is divided into 2 phases with the second phase adding increased speed and difficulty. If you are planning to use a specter, don’t waste materials on it until after you can are familiar with phase 1 mechanics. Any electricity attacks (Electric Blitz Grindstone bought from Venigni’s butler) will add bonus damage against the King.

Gear Setup
What gear you bring to the fight is entirely up to you and should match the attributes you have leveled up. Here is the setup that was used in making this guide:
• Weapon: Bone-Cutting Sawblade +6 & Big Pipe Wrench Handle
• Legion Arm: Aegis
• Amulets: Life, Carrier’s, & Black Cat’s (not intentional)
• Frame: LADA F150
• Converter: Workshop Union Standard Corrosion Resistance
• Cartridge: Belford Disruption
• Liner: Workshop Union Certified

Phase 1
During phase 1, block or parry the King of Puppets’ attacks. When the boss staggers, run to the front and attack his weak spot just to the right of his head. If you brought a specter with you, apply electricity to your blade as soon as the King starts focusing on it.
• Wind Up Punch: When the King spins fully around, he will punch which should be guarded or parried.
• Vault: If you see the boss place both fists on the ground, he will use them to jump to another location in the room.
• Cyclone: When the King’s upper body spins with wind effects, run away to avoid AoE damage.
• Extended Arms: Occasionally, one or both of the King’s arms will extend out for a punch or a sweeping motion which should be blocked.
• Flurry of Punches: If you see the boss yell, it will be followed up by a series of punches. Block if you’re the target or try to get out of the way when the yell starts.

Phase 2
In phase 2, you will fight Romeo who was controlling the King’s shell in the first phase. He is much faster and uses a scythe for attacks. At the start of the phase, repair your weapon. Optionally, activate the Cube to buff the specter or apply a Blitz Abrasive for more damage output. If you manage to stagger Romeo, his weak point is just to the right of his head again.
• Scythe Attacks: Standard scythe attacks should be blocked or parried (preferred).
• Jump Spin: Occasionally, Romeo will spin in the air to reach you followed by an overhead slam. Get out of the way or guard to mitigate damage.
• Fire Flurry: When you see Romeo applying fire, be ready for a long chain of fire strikes. Try to get out of the way or guard through them and heal immediately after.
• Fire Trail: After applying fire, Romeo will leave a fire trail behind him as he dashes around the arena. Don’t stand in the fire.
