Lord of Pain Valak

Background

Valak roamed around Velder in his heavy armor. In fact, we don't think he takes it off when he showers. He believed everyone was jealous of his powers and keeps it on in order to protect himself if he's ever ambushed. The demon that bonded into the armor has taken over his true personality. His armor can be damaged but his claw can still tear enemies apart. One day, he encountered Edan in the forest and they fought day and night. No one dared enter the forest until the clashing sound of swords stopped. Now... there is a search party looking for Colonel Edan.

Combo Modifications

Valak has access to all of the Reckless Fist combos with the following modifications:

Over Taker's XXvX is converted to a flurry of X-Crash-like claw hits before launching with two Nasod Claw spikes.

Wild Charge

30 Seconds

| Valak summons a Nuclear Missile in front of him, creating a giant mushroom cloud that obliterates everything caught in it. | Much weaker than the Over Taker equivalent of Nuclear. |- |}

Strategy

Valak's passive "Scar of Pain" makes him a huge threat. With it, he essentially Pierce Procs at all times. Compounded to that, he is able to roar, forcing you to stay within his range. Catch him or die.

Valak's skills do not pose as much threat as his combos. He will spam Valkyrie's Javelin mindlessly even if you are on a platform below him. He also likes to use Charged Bolt, however due to its size it is likely you won't get the full damage as you are knocked out of it.

Avoid hitting Valak when he is in the air, he will always retaliate faster than you can react.

Gameplay

Trivia

Valak was once the Royal Knight of Velder, under Noah's team.
When fighting Spriggan, Valak was able to obtain Spriggan's armor. However, the armor was cursed, controlling Valak and leaving him in a state of extreme eternal pain.
The cursed armor caused him to develop a hatred of the world, believing that everyone should ought to feel the same pain as him.
His attacks, which can pierce all defenses, are called the "Scar of Pain". With this power, he became the Lord of Pain.
Valak has a deep desire for a rematch with Edan, who were rivals prior to the two of them becoming cursed. Edan and Valak had agreed to fight, but Edan disappeared due to the curse of his sword. Valak has a desire to find his old friend to continue the battle.
- He joins the arena to fight Edan, who agrees to meet him there.
The Evil Tracer Ice burner set (Raven), is the outfit Valak wears, though the weapon is modified, along with recolored Arch Devil wings that are in their "open" state.
