Dodge All of His Attacks! Do Not Try to Block

Old King Allant - Dodge Attacks
Dodge all of Old King Allant's attacks by rolling. If you try to block with a shield, there is a possibility of your block being broken and taking the next attack head-on.

Attack when He Stabs His Sword into the Gound

Old King Allant - Attack When He Stabs the Ground
When Old King Allant stabs his sword into the ground, he will begin preparing for his large AOE attack. While he readies his attack, he will be vulnerable, so use this chance to attack him.

When Not Attacking, Keep Your Distance

Old King Allant - Keep Distance
When not attacking, be sure to keep your distance. Bait him to use his AOE attack by staying at a range just outside of his melee attacks.

Avoid His Grab Attack at All Costs

Old King Allant - Avoid Grab Attack
When his hand not holding the sword begins to glow, he will begin preparing for his grab attack, Soulsucker. This attack not only deals a massive amount of damage but also lowers your soul level by one if hit. Be sure to avoid it at all costs.
