And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels. — Book of the Order 8:1
Archistrategos of the heavenly host. They say he was the first to stand against the rebellion and has not sat down since. An honest swordsman who punishes greedy strikes: learn his rhythm, hit the windows after a combo and never strike the raised shield.
Michael serves not a face but the Seal and the Throne. The Seven came bearing the true Seal, and the thought that the Throne might be taken without right is beyond him; he never saw the slaughter at the Throne — the inner court is closed to the host. His name means “Who is like God?”. That question he has never once asked of the Seven.
Phases
I · Warden of Eden — from the start. II · Wall of Light — from 60% health. III · Bladed Wings — from 25%.
Sword combo
A string of 2 blows, in wrath 3: the slash is wide, can't be jumped; the backhand is low, jump it; the cleave is narrow and long, step aside. After the string he is open for 1.5 s: hits on him deal 1.3x.
Three blows hath his sword — wide, low and far; for each its own escape.
Shield
The raised shield stops blows from a 150° arc in front. A hit on the shield triggers a counter of 30 with a strong push. Get behind him: with the shield up he turns slowly.
Strike not the shield of the righteous: he shall return the blow.
Judgement
Sword to the sky: 3 waves of 5 circles; 1.4 s later a pillar of light strikes each — 32, jumping won't help.
The pillar of light falleth upon the circle; come out of the circle before judgement.
Wingbeat
A gust blows everyone within 4.5 m away, followed by 9 feathers, in wrath 13, in a 100° fan of 14.
The wind of his wings casteth down, and the feathers cut.
Wall of light
A beam splits the hall in two for 10 s and slowly turns; inside it you take 12 every 0.45 s and get pushed to your side. At the start of the phase 2 seraphs rise beside him.
He divided the hall with light, and none may cross; walk thou on thine own side.
Bladed wings
In wrath he rises to 6 m and circles for 2.2 s; the dive circle freezes 0.6 s before the fall: 44 within 3 m. Then his sword is stuck in the ground for 1.5 s — your window.
The archangel falleth from heaven, and his sword entereth the earth; then strike.
