• Clipped-Wing Angel: Once the Ancestor gets out of his Mech, he is utterly pathetic. Not only is his damage output feeble, and his health only a third of his previous form, but his attack patterns are no different than the Iron Guards/Crusaders/Assassins you have been fighting the entire game. The biggest challenge is having enough health from the end of the Zero Mech fight.
• Game Breaker: Heal magic can be this, particularly with the last magic ring as it gives you full health and can recharge several times in the course of one fight.
• That One Attack: The God-King's Fury attack can very well end a Bloodline then and there. It's tricky to parry, very difficult to dodge, and is capable of tearing through your entire health bar. It gets even worse in the final round when he starts using it every other attack pattern.
• That One Boss: The God King is an intentional example of this trope. His lethal powers cause the entire storyline. He starts at level fifty when the player is level one. Every time the player beats him, he goes up another fifty levels.
  • The Deathless Kings. The weakest of them is level 150.
  • The sequel has a few of these, naturally, though the one that takes the cake is the Bog Giant, the tree trunk horror with the Vile Blade stuck in it that comes with the "Vault of Tears" expansion - thankfully, you can restart the fight if you die like a regular encounter. But it is horrifyingly fast for something so huge (you will need to get used to its speed to dodge and parry properly), has new attacks that can catch you off-guard, and when felled, it goes One-Winged Angel and transforms into the Moss Golem, a Monstrosity that will give you a hard time even if you mastered fighting the first form. Your reward? A sword that rivals the Infinity Blade in attack power.
• Unfortunate Implications: Oh, those poor wives/mothers/daughters of the Warrior character.
  • Imagine being a wife, watching your beloved husband trudge off to certain doom in his mid-20s, to fail where dozens of generations of his fathers had also met their end. Then having to tell your son to get ready for his turn.
  • Expanded upon in the novella where, at least in one case, it seems like the warriors only spend a month with their wives before going off to get revenge or so everyone is brainwashed to believe.
