To face Anguished Guardian of the Ruins in Lies of P: Overture is like battling the erratic and furious dragon. It is one of the toughest boss fights, where the erratic enemy hits harder.
The fight here demands more than just quick reflexes. It also needs to use the right strategy, smart prep, and understanding the chaotic move-set of the boss to take him down. Here is how you can topple the titan and get the victory you need.
How to prepare for a fight against Anguished Guardian of the Ruins?
Forget about the brute forces working alone. The Guardian harbors a critical weakness—fire. So, make Flamberge Legion Arm your priority. Pair it with the main weapon that deals with solid fire damage and complements your build's stats.
Do not waste the precious slots. Equip the amulets that boost fire damage or even enhance the effectiveness of the chosen gear.
Pro tip
: Salamander Dagger, a fire-based weapon, will help during the fight.
Pack Legion Magazines to recharge Flamberge in the middle of the fight. If you are bringing the Spectre (summon if you are struggling), grab the Cube that heals it. Your Phantom ally can ease the pressure but would need your support during a long fight.
Further, stay mobile and avoid the use of heavy armor. The boss demands a quicker reaction. So, give priority to dodging over blocking unless, otherwise, you are confident in the perfect guards.

HOW TO BEAT Anguished Guardian Of The Ruins Boss EASY GUIDE | Lies Of P Overture
Stay close to the Guardian and exploit its weaknesses
From the start, try to get close to the beast. It's a counter-intuitive move but is crucial.
The Guardian has 2 weak points—Claws and Head. Stay close to the body and avoid wide swings. The red-glowing body slam of the Guardian is quite dangerous, but it can be parried. So, master it for staggering it.
Note:
Damaging the claw of the beast can cause valuable staggers.
Initially, forget about fancy parries. Give priority to dodging the wild swipes and then repositioning. The movements of the Guardians are unpredictable.
To perfectly time the block can create a huge opening for heavy retaliation when the beast crashes down, completely stunned. The skill is non-negotiable for consistent success.
When it staggers, unleash Flamberge on the head of the Guardian or his claws for massive damage. If you are positioned well, you can hit both the weak spots of the Guardian simultaneously. Just make sure to keep the pressure up to the point that can push it to Phase 2 quickly.
Watch out for the Anguished Guardian's laser
In Phase 2, ensure to watch for mouth lasers. The Guardian gains the deadly laser attack. It can telegraph it, tilting its head. Here, left or right means horizontal beam, and the straight tilt would mean frontal blast.
For the horizontal lasers, stay near The Guardian's right claw. For vertical beams, ensure they stick next to the Guardian. Be sure to block the red slam rightly for the staggers. For the frontal beams, on the other hand, keep a distance.
Also, always lock onto the claw for maximized damage while trying to avoid the beam. To keep parrying the Guardian's body slam will help. It will be the best opening.
When the beast falls, unleash Flamberge on the vulnerable points. If you get caught in the sword-slam AoE, block for minimized damage and to heal instantly. For the rest, remain relentless and exploit all staggers and lasers opening to shatter the Anguished Guardian.

Hip-hop trio Kneecap to play Glastonbury despite calls for ban

By Paul Sandle Hip-hop trio Kneecap to play Glastonbury despite calls for ban GLASTONBURY, England, - Irish hip-hop group Kneecap will perform at Glastonbury Festival on Saturday despite criticism by British Prime Minister Keir Starmer and pressure from some in the music industry to pull the gig. Frontman Liam O'Hanna, whose stage name is Mo Chara, was charged with a terrorism offence last month for allegedly displaying a flag in support of Iran-backed militant group Hezbollah at a concert in November. He was mobbed by supporters chanting "Free Palestine" and "Free Mo Chara" when he appeared at court in London. He was released on unconditional bail until another hearing in August. Footage has also emerged of the band saying on stage: "Kill your local MP" and "The only good Tory is a dead Tory." They have apologised for the comments about killing an MP. Starmer told the Sun newspaper earlier in June it was "not appropriate" for Kneecap, who rap in Irish and English, to appear at Glastonbury. Opposition leader Kemi Badenoch has also commented, saying the BBC, which broadcasts the festival, should not show them. Some 30 music industry bosses asked organisers to pull Kneecap from the line-up, according to a letter leaked by the DJ Toddla T, cited by the Guardian. In response, more than 100 musicians have signed a public letter in support of the group. Kneecap's manager Dan Lambert said the group had expected calls for the group's performance to be cancelled. "We knew that the biggest pressure would come on Glastonbury because Glastonbury's an institution," he told Reuters. But it had not been an issue for organisers. "We didn't bring it up and they didn't bring it up," he said on site at Worthy Farm. "They treated us professionally." Organiser Emily Eavis said on Wednesday the festival was a platform for artists from all over the world, adding that "everyone is welcome here". The footage of O'Hanna displaying the flag came to light after the Northern Irish trio projected pro-Palestinian messages on stage at the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival in California in April, ending with: "Fuck Israel. Free Palestine." Kneecap, whose other members have the stage names Móglaí Bap and DJ Próvaí, have said they do not support Hamas or Hezbollah. O'Hanna said on Friday the group were "playing characters" on stage, and it was up to the audience to interpret their messages. "Take what you want from it, but we're not going to change in that way," he told the Guardian newspaper. This article was generated from an automated news agency feed without modifications to text.

Director of ‘the greatest film ever made' died alone and broke, was forced to beg for money from his peers: ‘Erratic, self-destructive, egotistical'

After a decade of self-imposed exile, the great actor-filmmaker Orson Welles attempted to make a comeback. He wanted to make a movie about his old friend, writer Ernest Hemingway's suicide. But no studio wanted to foot the bill. Welles was hailed as a wunderkind after Citizen Kane, often regarded as the greatest movie ever made. But his career was marked by a certain adventurousness that left him struggling financially, off and on, for the vast duration of it. He cobbled together money for his comeback project using foreign financiers (including the Shah of Iran's brother-in-law), but he ran out of funds midway. Accepting a lifetime achievement award in 1975, he made the most of his stage time by essentially asking the august gathering to give him the funds necessary to complete the movie. The industry that once hailed him as a legend, the finest filmmaker to ever exist, discarded him when he had outlived his usefulness. Welles never directed a successful film during his lifetime, even though many of them are now hailed as classics. Citizen Kane, inarguably his most admired creation, was the number one film of all time according to the British Film Institute's Sight & Sound decennial poll of critics. It was nominated for nine Oscars, winning in the Best Original Screenplay category. Only in his mid-20s and already at the top of the world, he developed a reputation for being a spendthrift. Also read – Legendary Bollywood music composer lived as paying guest in final years, banned family from attending funeral Writing for Guardian in 2009, the film historian David Thomson described Welles as 'most glorious film failure of them all.' According to Thomson's essay, Welles 'died, alone and broke, in a cottage in the Hollywood hills on 10 October 1985, at which point his affairs and his estate passed into a chaos that he had known and engineered for most of his life. In his youth, Thomson wrote, Welles 'worked 20 hours a day, ate double meals to keep going, pursued pretty young women like a demon and lived as if he had no tomorrow.' Welles spoke about his financial struggles in an interview with documentarian Leslie Megahey. 'I think I made, essentially, a mistake staying in movies. But it's the mistake I can't regret because it's like saying I shouldn't have stayed married to that woman, but I did because I love her. I've wasted the greater part of my life looking for money and trying to get along, trying to make my work from this terribly expensive paintbox which is a movie. I've spent too much energy on things that have nothing to do with making a movie.' Also read – Bollywood's most celebrated Golden Age writer died penniless, burdened by heavy debts; Javed Akhtar blamed Raj Kapoor In 1982, addressing a group of film students in France, Welles said according to a New Yorker article, 'You are people who have fallen under the spell of the most wicked of all the muses, because it's too expensive.' Asked what the greatest feeling a director can experience is, Welles replied, 'The greatest moment is always when you know the money is in the bank… It's exactly the way you would feel if you were a painter and you had to wait for some fairy to come in the night and give you some paint. Every morning, you wake up and the box is empty. Now, naturally, when you see all those colours in front of you, it's going to be a big moment in your life.'

To make ends meet, he'd take up acting roles. Famously, he voiced a character in the 1982 animated Transformers film. Once, Welles was hired by director Mel Brooks to narrate some portions of a documentary. He agreed to do it for $25,000. When Brooks asked what he'd spend the money on, Welles replied, 'Cuban cigars and Sevruga caviar. I would have included women, but I'm getting just a little too heavy for that kind of athletic endeavour.' While being honoured with a lifetime achievement award by the American Film Institute, Welles was reduced to asking his peers for money to complete his unfinished film. 'A maverick may go his own way but he doesn't think that it's the only way or ever claim that it's the best one, except maybe for himself. And don't imagine that this raggle-taggle gypsy is claiming to be free. It's just that some of the necessities to which I am a slave are different from yours. As a director, for instance, I pay myself out of my acting jobs. I use my own work to subsidise my work. In other words, I'm crazy. But not crazy enough to pretend to be free. But it's a fact that many of the films you've seen tonight could never have been made otherwise,' he said in his speech. He proceeded to show the crowd a scene from his unfinished film, which revolved around a character needing money.

As per his wishes, he was cremated. Only a handful of close friends attended his funeral. Joseph Cotten wrote, 'He did not want a funeral; he wanted to be buried quietly in a little place in Spain.' He had been under treatment for diabetes as well as a heart ailment, The New York Times noted in its obituary, adding, 'For his failure to realise his dreams, Welles blamed his critics and the financiers of Hollywood. Others blamed what they described as his erratic, egotistical, self-indulgent and self-destructive temperament. But in the end, few denied his genius.' Writer Stephen Farber noted, 'Looking back over American movie history – a history of wrecked careers – you begin to see that the critics have a lot to answer for. The classic victim is Orson Welles.'

New Baba Vanga Prediction: Countdown Begins! Catastrophe in next 20 days, mega disaster to hit THIS country, Tsunami likely to...

New Baba Vanga Prediction New Baba Vanga Prediction: Ryo Tatsuki, a mysterious Japanese manga artist who claims that she can see the future through her dreams, in her book The Future I Saw, drew and wrote about events that later came true. It's worth noting that many of her predictions have proven to be 100% accurate, which is why more and more people are now closely following her statements. She first gained attention when readers noted that her 1999 prediction of a 'great disaster in March 2011' aligned almost exactly with the real-world Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami that struck on March 11, 2011. What did she predict for July 5, 2025? The New Baba Vanga, in her updated book, made a strange and frightening prediction. According to her new book, a huge disaster will strike Japan on July 5, 2025. However, she did not explain what exactly will happen, but her words have now gone viral. On social media, people are sharing the date and talking about it with a mix of fear, curiosity, and worry, turning it into a trending topic. Ryo Tatsuki predicted a devastating disaster on July 5, 2025, with some interpreting it as a tsunami or earthquake triggered by an undersea split between Japan and the Philippines, the Guardian reported. Here are some of her past predictions: She had predicted the death of Princess Diana The death of singer Freddie Mercury Even a global disease in the 2020s similar to COVID-19. Because of these accurate predictions, many now believe she might be right again, and that's causing panic for some. Massive Drop in Flight Bookings: After Tatsuki's predictions, Japan has reportedly witnessed a 83 percent drop in flight bookings. Tourists from East Asia cancelled trips due to fears of the impending disaster. According to Bloomberg Intelligence, average bookings from Hong Kong are down 50 percent year-on-year, with bookings between late June and early July plummeting by as much as 83 percent. A travel agency in Hong Kong reported a 50 percent drop in bookings to Japan during the April-May spring break, with many travellers cancelling existing summer bookings or postponing trips due to the terrifying prediction. Japanese officials have urged the public to disregard Ryo Tatsuki's predictions, stating they are entirely unfounded and lack any scientific basis. 'It would be a major problem if the spread of unscientific rumours on social media affected tourism. There is no reason to worry because the Japanese are not fleeing abroad … I hope people will ignore the rumours and visit,' said Yoshihiro Murai, governor of Miyagi prefecture.
