Their powers are limited, but if used well they can come in handy during many fights. The boots give you the ability walk along walls and quickly move through the arenas. The first ability can be used only by walls marked with golden feet.

During the fight you can them to quickly move. During your couple meters long rush (L2 + X) the smaller enemies which stand in your way will be thrown into the air and receive some minor damage. Additionally they will be slowed down during the flight, allowing you to quickly finish them off. By upgrading them, you can charge by holding down X, which will increase the damage dealt.

Armoured Cyclops

The armoured Cyclops, despite its size, is a relatively easy enemy. He moves very slowly, so you won't have any problems with avoiding close contact. However keep in mind that among his attack are also those which are long ranged.

Most of the time, he'll use the ball which he holds in his hand. Dodge it, as he uses this weapon for long range attacks. Once you notice a golden glow above the weapon (which symbolizes this attack), quickly jump into the air. Once you get close to him, you must be ready for normal, short and medium range attacks.

Once you weaken him enough, launch a QTE during which you'll have to press four basic buttons. If you get it right, the Cyclops goes down.
