Rank: A

The Prince of Death is similar to the Liches and other scythe-wielding enemies that you’ve faced up to this point. It has a new attack, though, called “Soul Harvest,” which is a multi-hit combo. You’ll take quite a bit of damage if you get caught in it, so be prepared to use a Potion or a High Potion, but otherwise, this Notorious Mark should go down without much of a fuss.
