Father Corvo
First boss that of the main - Father Corvo will use not too powerful attacks with the sword, avoid them until he slows down then blow him well with a powerful attack of the secondary weapon. Video for you:

The Guardian
Second Main Story Boss - The Guardian is a stone colossus that has fairly slow but devastating attacks. The fight consists of 3 phases: in the first two you will have to hit the explosive yellow areas on his right arm. Stay as far away from him as possible and ride the whole time. After he uses his hammer attack shoot the yellow areas with the pistol. If done correctly, the Guardian will lose a body part. Use Death Vise to climb onto his body and attack him. In the third phase, the Guardian will start firing a cannon at the spiked spheres. Follow the video to see how to finish it.

Basileus
Third boss of the main quest - He is a kind of ghost that uses a series of very fast and powerful attacks. Always be ready to dodge when it starts to hover in the air or becomes invisible, as it is about to deliver a heavy attack. The best tactic to beat this boss is to summon some Ghouls, so it is better to upgrade all the skills related to them to the maximum (remember that it is always possible to reset and redistribute the skills by paying 1000 gold to Vulgrim). While the Ghouls keep Basileus busy, hit him with the pistol to build up anger. Follow the video for more help

Ospite Gemente
Fourth boss of the main story - This is not a particularly difficult boss, if you have difficulty follow the strategy shown in the video.

Archon
Fifth boss of the main story - As for Basileus, even against the Archon the use of Ghouls turns out to be a winning move, so it is advisable to maximize all the skills related to them (remember that it is always possible to reset and redistribute the skills by paying 1000 gold in Vulgrim). Use the pistol whenever you can, even if it doesn't deal much damage it helps to increase the rage which in turn allows you to summon new Ghouls. At some point, however, the Archon will begin to hover in the air, so you will need the ability that allows you to summon crows until you finish it. Follow the video

Samael
Sixth boss of the main story - Same strategy indicated for the Archon and Basileus, Ghouls is the way. Video for you

Absalom - Avatar of Chaos (boss finale)
Seventh boss of the main story - Same strategy indicated for the Archon and Basileus, make extensive use of Ghouls and Ravens. While they keep him busy take advantage of the quick attacks from behind. This sprawling affair features ultra-long range attacks, so always stay at maximum distance, use your pistol whenever possible, summon your creatures, and keep your reaper form for the final phase, when you use all the potions available to restore anger and launch your most powerful attacks.
