Guildenstern is incredibly difficult to defeat. The battle will begin on a magic platform on top of the ruined [[Grand Cathedral|Cathedral]]. Guildenstern floats around this platform at a very fast speed, casting both Light and Dark affinity spells at [[Ashley Riot|Ashley]]. The only way to attack him is to wait at the edge of this platform until he casts a status-changing spell on you. Before he casts it, you will have a chance to attack him (you will most likely be doing 0 or 1 damage). Use a Heavy Shot and Crimson Pain chain combo to deal the most damage, and use a Vera and Cure potion to heal after this. After some damage is dealt, he will fly up and you will have a chance to attack him as he flies over your head. If you fail, he will execute his ultimate attack: Bloody Sin. The only way to defend against this attack is to use Demonscale as a Defense Ability, though timing it can be rather difficult.

Stats

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.

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 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.

Etymology

Guildenstern, along with Rosencrantz, are minor characters in one of Shakespeare's tragedies, Hamlet. He is also one of the protagonists in Tom Stoppard's absurdist play, Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead.
