Level: 48
General Information: Julius is a powerful Vampire Hunter wielding the Vampire Killer whip. He is highly mobile and uses various sub-weapons and special moves.
Weaknesses/Resistances: Julius is TOLERANT to HOLY attacks. Avoid using the Claimh Solais. Balmung is recommended. You can touch Julius without taking damage. He gains brief invincibility after being hit four times in a row.
Attacks:
- Whip: A powerful, long-reaching Holy attack used while standing, jumping, or ducking. Backdash to evade.
- Acrobatics: Julius performs jump-kicks and slides, dealing minor damage. Watch out for these, especially the slide when he's close.
- Omnia Vanitas: Julius' signature dodging move. He rapidly moves left and right, becoming difficult to track. Be ready for his reappearance and counter-attack.
- Grand Cross: Julius floats in the background, summoning energy. He may try to pull you closer. Move away quickly (Black Panther soul helps). A large holy cross appears, dealing consistent small damage. After this move, Julius becomes more aggressive and gains access to sub-weapons, indicating the fight is entering its second half.
- Cross: A boomerang-like sub-weapon that can hit multiple times.
