Dark Souls III - Final Boss: Soul of Cinder
1And here is the final boss of the game!
The Soul of Cinder shifts through multiple movesets over the fight, the first phase has him start off with a moveset reminiscent of the straightsword and greatsword movesets in Dark Souls I, with fairly slow but powerful attacks, before morphing his weapon to resemble a curved sword, taking moves from Dark Souls I once again (Chosen Undead, is that you?), these moves are much faster and often let the boss move while he's attacking, he also gains Combustion at this point. He eventually switches to a magic set, having a Homing Crystal Soulmass spell that refreshes itself, Crystal Soul Spear, Soul Greatsword, a spell that looks like several Soul Spears in rapid succession and his most powerful spell, Soul Stream. He can also cast Power Within and Poison Cloud.
Beware, for emptying his HP does not mean he is yet just dead, a huge fiery explosion marks the moment he switches to his final moveset, greatly reminiscent of Gwyn's back in Dark Souls I, a fact made even more obvious by the music taking these notes anyone who has fought Gwyn will surely remember.
In addition to his powerful sword attacks, he also gains lightning magic, under the form of a simple Lightning Spear, a close-range blast as well as an upward blast causing Lightning to strike on you after a few seconds.
All in all, a great boss fight and a beautiful way to end Dark Souls III in my opinion!
