Lies of P: How to Beat The Scrapped Watchman (Boss Fight)
One of the most difficult early bosses you fight in is the Scrapped Watchman, a giant police puppet charged with electricity that can be very difficult to beat. Split into two distinct phases, you'll have to master Pinocchio's movement and wait for the perfect times to strike. The limited gear you have at this point in the game gives you only a few options for taking down this giant automaton.
Make sure to upgrade at least one weapon or Legion Arm before reaching this boss fight to give yourself better damage on attacks. Unlike the Parade Master in , the Scrapped Watchman can take far more hits unless you improve your weapons. You can spend a Star Fragment outside the area with this boss to summon a Specter ally to help during the battle if you would rather save your upgrade items for later.
