How to beat Hollow Archon
Holy damage and patience. Only the centre clone deals damage — track lighting cues. Stop briefly during the mirror phase to break the link, and save heavy Divine Arts for the second mirror cycle.

Quick answer
Holy damage. The clone-split sub-phase has only one real Archon — the centre clone. Run perpendicular through beam sweeps. In the mirror phase, stop briefly to break the mirror link; do not move diagonally.
Step by step
- Equip a Holy-infused Divine Weapon. Dark damage is resisted.
- When he splits into 3, ignore the side clones; commit damage on centre only.
- On beam sweep, sprint perpendicular or roll-iframe at the last frame.
- In the mirror phase, freeze for half a beat to break the link, then resume.
- Save Divine Art bursts for the second mirror cycle.
Common mistakes
- Attacking side clones in the split phase — wasted DPS.
- Diagonal kiting in the mirror phase — your own attacks come back at you.
