Beating (The Grim Reaper) Prince of Death

Prince of Death is honestly... weak. I tried to go hard asap and he just rolled over. Typical "Lich" type enemy with similar moves. Like all enemies of that kind - are EXTREMELY EASY TO STAGGER.

Soul Harvest: is the only skill I saw him do. It's a very long combo with sweeping slashes and teleports.

The usual teleports, blade waves, and sweeping strikes.

I'll try to keep him alive on my next run... I essentially stunlocked it to the ground. He fancies himself the Prince of Death, but it was me all along.
