How to Prepare for the King’s Flame, Fuoco in Lies of P

A quick visit to the various merchants in Lies of P is a good idea before taking on King’s Flame, Fuoco. As the boss’ name suggests, Fuoco has a lot of literal firepower, so you’ll want to keep an Attribute Resistance Ampoule handy to help with that problem. Overheating is one of the easier status effects to deal with, as dodging will drain it faster should you get affected, but it’ll tick down your health quickly, so be wary regardless.

Fuoco is a big metal puppet, meaning he’s weak to electric attacks. I suggest equipping the Fulminis Legion Arm and the Electric Coil Stick with at least one or two upgrades. Feel free to attach it to whatever handle you feel most comfortable with, though. My suggestion is something fast with multiple hits, like the Wintry Rapier’s Handle, if you have it. There are also several items that can help with this fight, including Throwing Cells and Electric Blitz Canisters.

How to Get Past Phase 1 of King’s Flame, Fuoco in Lies of P

When you get to King’s Flame, Fuoco’s area, take note of the large red pipes near the sides of the room. These will help you out throughout the fight. Fuoco has a wide variety of attacks, but many of them in the first half of the fight revolve around its big fist. If you want to wear him down quickly, you’ll first need to spend some time learning his attacks. In general, Fuoco’s attacks aren’t very accurate, so you can avoid a lot of damage just by keeping a safe distance. Fuoco has the following moves:

• A quick fist slam.
• A slow fist slam with a follow-up fist slam.
• A fist slam followed by a spinning back fist followed by another fist slam.
• An uppercut, which can sometimes be followed by, you guessed it another fist slam.

When Fuoco places his fist on the ground beside him, he may perform any of the following attacks:

• A swipe coming from the left (he may follow this up with a second swipe from the left).
• A 360-swipe coming from the right (he may follow this up with two additional spins or a swipe from the left).
• A swift kick from the right.

Should Fuoco’s kick connect and knock you over, it will combo into its first red unblockable attack: A chasing fist slam. Your best hope to avoid that massive damage is to parry once you’re on your feet. Trying to dodge will likely fail.

Fuoco’s second red unblockable sees it charging to you with a spinning fist. This is very easy to avoid if you sprint to the left or right, but be sure to give Fuoco space to pass, as the hitbox is slightly more generous than you’d think.

How to Get Past Phase 2 of King’s Flame, Fuoco

At 50 percent health, Fuoco will run to the center of the room using his charging red unblockable attack and dump fire onto the ground in a wide area. Keep an eye on the health bar to know when to get clear. It’s difficult to avoid, even with a ton of space, but the red destructible pipes I mentioned earlier can provide cover if you put them between you and Fuoco.

After this, Fuoco’s moveset will expand. At a distance, Fuoco will start launching fireballs. Sprinting to the left or right should keep you safe, but you’ll want to close the distance to get them to stop. Fuoco may also spew globs of oil around the arena before or in the middle of its fireball volleys. Try not to run through the oil as you dodge the fireballs. Fuoco will also use a flamethrower at this stage, but quickly moving out of its sweep from right to left should allow you to avoid it.

What Drops Do You Get for Beating the King’s Flame, Fuoco?
