* '''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
