Magic
LightningThe negation numbers are the % of your damage that gets blocked. For example, if a negation is 60, 40% of that damage by that type will go through and 60% will be negated. Bigger number = less damage. A negation of 100 means no damage goes through, and a negation of -100 mean the enemy takes 2x damage from that source. 0 means damage goes pretty much as is.

Godskin Apostle Fight Strategy
Melee Users
The Goskin Apostle is a fast and aggressive boss that uses his sickle in a variety of spinning and jumping attacks. One of his key moves is the Sickle Jumping Slash, where he suddenly leaps into the air while spinning and ends with a quick slash aimed directly at you. This attack has a short wind-up, but if you sidestep just before he lands, you'll have a brief moment to land a clean melee hit while he's recovering.
He also uses a Double Spin Slash, where he twirls his sickle twice in rapid succession. This move has decent range, so it's best to back up or block until the second spin finishes. Once he stops spinning, he briefly pauses to reset his stance, giving you a small opening to move in for a few quick strikes.
Sometimes, he chains this into a more dangerous combo called the Double Spin Slash with Jumping Slash, which adds the airborne attack at the end. If you stay close but avoid the second spin by rolling through it, you can position yourself behind him right as he jumps, which makes it easier to dodge the landing slash and punish him while he's turning back around.
Another close-range move he uses is the Sickle Handle Stab, where he jabs at you multiple times using the handle of the weapon with one hand. It's a flurry of fast stabs, so it's risky to try blocking all of it. Instead, circle around him to his back as soon as he begins the first stab. This lets you avoid most of the hits and land a heavy melee attack while his arm is still extended.
Lastly, watch out for the Black Flame Charged Attack. The boss crosses his arms and begins charging dark flames, releasing a large shockwave followed by a delayed explosion. The charge-up is slow but dangerous, so use this time to sprint to his side or back to avoid the blast. If you time it right, you can get behind him just after the explosion and go in for a strong melee combo while he's still finishing the animation.

| Double Spin Slash | The Apostle quickly spins in place twice with his sickle extended, covering a wide area around him. | Roll towards the boss and slightly to the side on the first spin, then stay close behind him. |
| Sickle Handle Stab | The Apostle switches to stabbing with the handle end of his sickle, thrusting it multiple times in quick succession with one hand. | Backstep or roll backwards twice to escape the stabbing range. |
| Sickle Jumping Slash | The Goskin Apostle leaps into the air with a fast spinning motion and comes crashing down with a wide horizontal slash aimed directly at you. | Wait until the boss begins descending before rolling to the side. |
| Double Spin Slash with Jumping Slash | A combo attack where the Apostle performs the usual double spin, then immediately leaps up into a Sickle Jumping Slash to surprise aggressive players. | Dodge the spins like usual, but watch for the jump right after and delay your roll until the boss starts falling. |
| Black Flame Charged Attack | The Apostle stands still, crosses his arms, and charges up black flames, eventually releasing a shockwave followed by a delayed explosion. | As soon as you see him start charging, sprint away to avoid both the shockwave and the explosion. |

I had a run where the first evergaol, which I opened right away, was Godskin Apostle, whom I destroyed. The second evergaol I opened that run was at the end of Day 2 and was Godskin Noble and Apostle, which I was chased away from by the rain and into the Godskin Noble and Apostle night boss, which ended the run. So yeah, lotta Godskin Apostle that run.
