the panther skin is basically pay to lose, with a helmet on too your hotbox is extended wayyyy further and ur back is arched. whenever u try to dodge an attack that little arch with get u hit and killed, stopped using that skin unless i’m playing warlock or wiz (PS if u use panther skin and ur trying to dodge warlord/spectral all you need to do is look UP and not down)
People saying the panther skin, probably true. But also... The central circle in the middle of the room, is slightly raised, which can cause you to get hit if you're standing on it. That's why I tend to stick to the edge of the room. Also (part 2) at [4:50] you can actually attack spectral knight while he is doing the starting animation, you don't have to wait.
2:37 You are being hit because this circle in the center, as well as edges, of the arena are slingtly higher than the rest of the room, therefore extending your hitbox upwards. Not only that, but you strafed too far right before looking down. When you see this attack, you must stop (or go towards the boss), crouch and look down. 2:46 High slash attack goes slightly downwards from the spectral knight, therefore the tip of his blade was able to hit you even when though crouched. If you are this far away from the boss, either jump to reduce damage (crouching will make it a headshot) or move away from the attack. Generally how I kill the boss every time is staying as close as rapier can reach: it's close enough to dodge all of his combo attacks and far enough to dodge his body charge attack. It's not the skin that is the problem with spectral knight, no.
it's not just the panther skin btw, it's because the floor in his arena is uneven, which the monster guy was probably not aware of when coding his attacks. It leads you to being a bit higher compared to him than you are supposed to, causing a hit
Pretty sure the cat skins are bugged, you can't duck under the swings. First one maybe you're on the edge of that inner circle, that catches me too from time to time. Try a different skin and see if you can duck
Skin does not help, change skin. Also for low attack if you are too close it will hit you even if you jump or jump crouch. When ducking a high attack always strafe sideways away from him while crouching and looking down. So not stand up too early either cause you will catch the end of his swing sometimes. I consistently beat him on rogue/bard I have almost ten spectral fabrics lol so do the math lol I think minus the phase change and the jump attack he's a great boss!! Wish I could say the same for Banshee....
When you dodge I find looking up makes it so I don’t get hit also staying close helps. But I parry with longsword so it might be harder with a squishy close class
The other comments talk about skin-issue. But you should also not stop strafing backwards while dodging, since Rogue's normally have enough movement speed, to strafe out of reach anyway.
his horizontals arn't horizontal, ther angled downwards a bit. So the doges you do would work, You just need to be closer to him. And on the high swing if your circle right duriing it he can hit you on the whip around.
Your dodging it right, its the rooms fault. the circle in the middle and the four paths coming off of it are raised slightly. if you or the boss are on them, your getting headshot. Have to drag it to one of the 4 flat areas of floor.
Welcome to my entire confusion about this game. Everything that I'm told how to dodge or anything doesnt actually work in the same. Rogues with weapon away is slower than every other class with weapons out and attacking.... Just zero sense

2:37 with that swing specifically I turn/duck a full 180 degrees away from the knight instead of 90, hope that helps!
2:37 your standing on the elevated floor my friend, also get rid of panther skins and your all set.
If youre using the panther skin, the hitboxes get you killed by warlord. Probably spectral knight, too.

I heared that Felidians have arched backs when they crouch, consider that when crouching + looking down
This
Cat back has an arch to it. You have to dodge/duck perfectly distanced.

look up on cat skin, as other commenters say it's the arched back on felines
so many people commenting this when it happens to literally every skin in the game

just look up straight and you are fine rather than ducking and looking down, we are doing it when we have long sword to parry
me too! same problem, maybe it is a cat skin bug

I’ve been looking for my 1st royal diamond all wipe
your wifi is bad so you gotta dodge as soon as you see the attacks also look down all the way literally headbutt the floor
no love for red names
