EDIT: I just realized you have to HOLD "x" on the pentagram to activate it. I had no idea that you could interact with it.

I'm not too experienced with this game, after inputting the ritual code. I moved the way you did, but the boss didn't spawn the first time when I got to the room with the Red Star and the numbers on each points. Do I need to kill a mob in that room (like you did on 18:12)? Or do I need to hit a specific button when I get to that room? Thanks!

A nice strategy I just figured out that can help with all the characters is find the bull looking creature with red eyes that follows you into rooms. Go back into the room you came from and farm gold and orange upgrades off him. Having max upgrades for armor makes beating the boss much easier.

This character is the worst, is there a pattern to where he shoots his attacks?

Enter the following Ritual from the main menu:

This will spawn you as the Cardinal with everything you need to beat the game. Check a handful of the neighboring rooms from where you spawn to find a shimmering orange thing in the center of a random room. Walk into this to be teleported to the boss room. Press button-x.png when standing on the symbol on the floor to initiate the boss fight. If you can't find the orange glimmer after five or six rooms, feel free to quit out (button-page.png) and restart a new run with the same ritual above, and you may have better luck with one spawning nearby.

The Cardinal is a pretty decent character, but unfortunately his regular button-a.png attack shoots out at a random angle. If you stay near the boss, this isn't really an issue, but that leaves you vulnerable to his dash, which you're unlikely to be able to avoid if you're that close. So for the first and second phases where he chases you and dashes, I recommend utilizing your button-b.png attack as much as possible. This shoots three projectiles, and while the two outer ones will likely never hit the boss, it at least guarantees the center one will always shoot straight. This allows you to keep your distance and always hit him straight on during the first two phases. The third phase is identical for all characters, meaning attack as much as possible and do your best to dodge the random fireballs. Here, you can just spam your regular button-a.png attack near him since he doesn't dash. Shoot him over and over and then just avoid him when he spirals, dodge the fireballs, and repeat until you beat him.

One important thing I struggled with was, after the boss turns blue and spirals around the room and then blasts back into the center of the room, sometimes I would take damage when he reappeared in the center for no apparent reason. This seemed to happen whenever I was standing in the bottom half of the room. I switched to always waiting in the upper left corner for him to reappear and never ended up taking random damage in that corner.
