Executioner Chariot | How to defeat a boss Dark Souls II Guide
Last update: 11 May 2016
Executioner Chariot is a boss who can be encountered in Undead Purgatory. This is not a typical opponent, since it moves around the arena on a chariot with a cursed horse. Another problem is that the chariot has blades attached to its wheels, so you have to hide from it in special aisles. There are also skeletons and two mages running around the arena, so you should fist take care of the mages, then the skeletons, and at the very end the boss himself.
Attacks:
- Chariot Charge - the boss moves around the arena on a chariot. The blades attached to its wheels inflict extra damage.
- Horse Charge - when you stand on the way of the horse, it starts charging at you.
- Kick - when you stand behind the horse, it kicks you with his hind legs.
- Magic Breath - when you stand in front of the boss, it performs Magic Breath attack.
- Hooves Strike - when you stand in front of the horse, it raises its front legs and hits you with them.
Tactics:
The entire fight takes place on an unusual arena, or in the corridors of a circular shape. The chariot goes around the entire room. You can protect yourself from the blades attached to the wheels by hiding in special aisles. Skeletons may be another problem during the fight. When you knock them down, they get up again after a moment reanimated by mages hiding in the aisles. First, defeat the mages and then the skeletons. Only then can you safely proceed to the fight proper.
When you clear the arena of the enemies, run to the raised grille and pull the lever to lower it again. The speeding chariot will hit it and get destroyed. The last thing to do is to defeat the cursed horse. The best way to do that is to circle around him with a raised shield while trying to remain at its side all the time. The enemy cannot attack you from that position, so with a little bit of concentration you can end the fight without taking any injuries.
