== Boss Mechanics ==

* '''Weapon & Shield Swapping''': ~~The Skeleton Pioneer alternates~~ between:

* '''Enrage''': Below 55% HP, the Skeleton Pioneer enters an enraged state, hitting noticeably harder for the rest of the fight.

** Mace ~~– Deals~~ Heavy Damage

* '''Weapon & Shield Swapping''': He switches between two weapons: the Mace for Heavy Damage and the Sword for Quick Damage. He enters the fight without a shield equipped, but will pick one up mid-fight and swap between a Parry Shield (blocks Quick Damage) and a Wooden Shield (blocks Heavy Damage).

** Sword ~~– Deals~~ Quick Damage

* '''Stomp Attack''': A jumping ground slam that deals Heavy Damage across the impact area.

* It begins combat without a shield, but ~~may equip~~ and swap between:

* '''Charge Attack''': A straight-line dash dealing sustained Quick Damage, telegraphed only by a brief red glint that leaves little time to react.

** Parry Shield ~~– Blocks~~ Quick Damage

* '''Falling Stalactites''': Stalactites drop around him periodically, each leaving a small Heavy Damage AOE.

** Wooden Shield ~~– Blocks~~ Heavy Damage

* '''Stomp Attack''': ~~The Skeleton Pioneer leaps into the air and slams the~~ ground ~~upon landing, dealing~~ Heavy Damage ~~in an~~ area~~-of-effect (AOE)~~

* '''Charge Attack''': ~~The Skeleton Pioneer charges forward in a~~ straight line, dealing ~~continuous~~ Quick Damage~~. A~~ red glint ~~briefly appears before charging, but the dodge window is small~~

* '''Falling Stalactites''': Stalactites periodically ~~fall around the Skeleton Pioneer~~, ~~creating multiple~~ small ~~AOEs that deal~~ Heavy Damage

== Strategy ==

~~Track his~~ weapon ~~and shield swaps —~~ Mace ~~deals~~ Heavy ~~Damage,~~ Sword ~~deals~~ Quick ~~Damage~~, and ~~his~~ shield blocks ~~whichever damage~~ type ~~it's suited for~~. ~~Watch for the~~ red glint ~~before his Charge Attack~~ and ~~stay clear of~~ falling ~~Stalactite AOEs~~.

Keep an eye on which weapon he's holding: the Mace hits for Heavy damage while the Sword hits for Quick, and whichever shield he's carrying blocks the matching type. His Charge Attack gives only a quick red glint as warning, and stalactites will keep falling around him throughout the fight, so don't stand still for long.
