#14 - Last Giant (Trophy)
~Defeat the Last Giant~

This is the first real boss you will encounter in the game, the best strategy for beating him is staying between his legs and attacking his feet. This will avoid his sweeping attacks with his hand. Just keep your stamina at 25% or higher at all times so you can dodge roll away if he decides to stomp his foot or run up to him again if he jumps back to get away from you. Very simple and easy boss fight. If you talked to Pate while progressing through the level and exhausted all his dialogue options you will be able to summon him as an NPC helper with the fight.
