Field Notes
The Chapter 1 hunt that ends atop the Mountain of Frozen Souls, and the first boss with a mechanic you must solve rather than out-fight: five totems in the second phase, taken down with Focused Shot and Charged Shot, so keep Damiane's aim steady. Up close it is a parry fight against fast strikes; at range, watch for the sword waves. We keep a full walkthrough of the questline — tracking the Devil from the manors to the summit — on the dedicated guide page linked below, including the lantern-trail sections the boss page does not cover.
