Roy the Hunter Boss Guide

Capital Walls Encounter

At Capital Walls, Roy has lost himself. On first approach Focus is locked while Ruby calls out; he urges her to pick up the knife and the real fight begins. Two health bars: readable three-hit combo, smoke bombs that disrupt Focus sight, spinning aerial knives, and a charged dual-pillar Strike-style slam.

Phase two keeps the three-hit string and adds ranged daggers. Learn the combo timing once 鈥?it carries into Hardcore where the HP bar disappears. Achievement You Dare Use my Own Weapons against me, Ruby? asks you to hit Roy with his own dagger.

True Route 鈥?Root, Rescue, Dark Ruby

On the Kingdom Reclaimed path, defeat Red-Eyed Tree and return the root to Mira before this fight. After Roy falls, continue into the internal battle and defeat Dark Ruby so he survives. Skipping the Tree/Mira step commonly repeats the tragic first-route outcome.
