Sorry for the lack of boss intro here, as I've been having issues with my display drivers crashing while trying to record and lost some footage in a poorly timed crash. So, this is the hardest boss in the DLC so far (I'm writing this with two bosses left to go). One of only two bosses you can summon a Specter for, and thus one of two fights that you can use all your wishstones for, this fight isn't made that much easier simply by having an extra body around. Markiona is a steep learning curve in terms of her available skills and the importance of dodging certain attacks, but she does have one interesting weakness. As it turns out, as best I can tell, none of Markiona's attacks are fury attacks, and neither are her puppet's. This means you can, with proper timing, dodge out of anything she throws at you. Since learning parry timing for me is much harder than learning dodge timing, this made the fight easier once I had a grip on it. Still took me over an hour to beat her (this isn't even half the attempts it took), but I do now have a good grasp on the fight.

Lies of P is an action game created by Neowiz Games and Round8 Studio and released in 2023. Lies of P Overture is the prequel DLC released in 2025 that focuses on the last days of Lea Florence Monad, the "Legendary Stalker," and her quest to save her ward and apprentice Romeo from a revenge plot crafted by her most vile foe. Featuring a handful of creative and challenging bosses, alongside some powerful and unique tools for defeating them, Lies of P Overture is a fantastic, often somewhat cinematic expansion on the original game, making it a worthwhile experience that is even more accessible now due to newer adjustable difficulty settings on top of Lies of P's already impressive set of customizable elements.
