== Battle == Guildenstern is difficult to defeat. The battle begins on a magic platform on top of the ruined Cathedral. Guildenstern speeds around the platform, casting powerful elemental spells and debuffing and dispelling any positive buffs on [[Ashley Riot|Ashley]]. The only way to attack him is to get near the edge of the platform until he casts a status-changing spell. Before Guidenstern casts it, the player will have a chance to attack. After some damage is dealt, Guidenstern will fly up and the player will have a chance to attack him as he flies over Ashley's head. If the player fails, Guildenstern will execute his ultimate attack: Bloody Sin. === Strategy === A bow-type weapon reaches his body and chest more easily, as these are his most vulnerable spots. However, it is not wise to use the bow-type [[Break Arts]] due to most of them having a Dark or Light affinity. Equipping [[Vagrant Story accessories|accessories]] and gems that deal extra damage to Evil enemies are useful, and the Heavy Shot and Crimson Pain chain combo can help deal the most damage. The player can use a Vera and Cure potion to heal afterward. The only way to defend against Bloody Sin is to use Demonscale as a Defense Ability, though the timing of it is difficult, as it occurs during the last few frames when the camera rapidly zooms in on Ashley.
