Talk:White Defender/@comment-25081149-20170807030910

Managed to defeat him when he did 6 damage, apparently at which point he stops giving new text after each round. Both at 5 damage and 6 damage he was surprised that the Vessel was appearing even in his dreams, and said that maybe once the King returns he would like the Vessel to be a knight, so they may have adventures together.

Once you reach 3-4 damage tank strats stop being viable, which means you have to rely on corner cheese to heal up safely. Attack range is extremely good egainst White Defender, as it allows you to both attack him from the corner more often and attack him from a safe distance while he is throwing balls at you.

Charms used: Quick Slash, Longnail, Mark of Pride, Baldur Shell

When the balls fly all over the place, it is extremely unlikely for any of them to hit the corner (think Windows 95 logo screensaver), so it gives you a huge window to stand there and heal up. Baldur shell mostly exists as insurence in the rare case when it does sneak in a corner hit, since 5-6 damage isn't something you can afford to randomly take. Aside from that all the usual Dung Defender tricks apply: stay near him when he comes out of the ground and dash through him when he burrows towards you.

Good luck
