How do I fight the Shadow Lord?
  • 1 of 5: Well, in this fight, the only real threat is the actual Shadow Lord.
  • 2 of 5: His "Minions" are not very threatening to you.
  • 3 of 5: First, take out the shadow altar, and then focus all of your attacks on the Shadow Lord.
  • 4 of 5: He should die pretty easily after you focus all of your attacks on him.
  • 5 of 5: Once he's dead, watch the little sequence, and take the stuff off of his body.
