The final battle - The Judge | Keystone Citadel - the last heart Lords of the Fallen Guide

While summoning the Infested, the opponent is defenseless, for a moment and vulnerable to attacks.

The battle with The Judge is quite demanding but, at this stage of the game (i.e. at the very end) you should already have sufficient weapons, armor, and quite a few shards and health potions. All of these can aid you in the battle but, before you start it, remember to place runes in your gear (mainly the ones that increase your resistance to fire). The battle itself has been divided into two phases - one short and another one that is a bit longer. In the first phase, atop the Citadel, especially watch out for The Judge's strikes at close range. This phase lasts until you deprive the boss of the predetermined amount of health (it has been separated with a line). Then, the fight moves over outside of the Citadel, to the yard. There, the array of the boss's attacks is enriched by the summoning of the Infested and by attacking from the balcony. During this attack, try to kill as many of the summons as possible because otherwise, the boss uses them to regenerate some of his health (after he drops back to the arena). Also, watch out for the fire attack that the boss summons and it is best if you stay in movement, and combine your attacks with blocks, into lethal sequences. During the battle proper, use the moment at which the boss slams into the ground. Dodging the claw attack gives you the opportunity to attack his back, at the moment at which he jumps. To sum up: try to run around, when the boss summons the Infested, kill as many of them as possible. At the moment, at which The Judge jumps down on you, especially use the moment when he hits the ground, and attack his back. Watch out for the red "sphere" that he throws - if this projectile connects, you lose some of your health points. This means that no health potion can regenerate it.

Harkyn, what have you done?

The only thing that you need to do now is sit back, in your armchair, and enjoy the short, final cutscene that sums up your choices and the path that Harkyn has chosen. After the end credits, you can start the game over, hope for new abilities to unlock and items to obtain (the ones that you have obtained the first time around, remain in your inventory).
