	Ancient Warrior is located at the top of the ~~Blue zone~~.		Ancient Warrior is located at the top of the [[Pillars]] location.

	Its arena consists of a large rectangular room with four pinwheels, two on each side, and three platforms.		Its arena consists of a large rectangular room with four pinwheels, two aligned vertically on each side, and three platforms.

	The outer platforms are larger than the middle, at a ratio of 3 to 2. These platforms are at a height where they can only be reached from the ground via a double jump into ~~either~~ a spin attack or pogoing Ancient Warrior. They are one dodge of distance apart, so a dodge at the edge of one will have you land on the next.		The outer platforms are larger than the middle, at a ratio of 3 to 2.

	Energy Ball: Fires a single large energy ball toward the player. This ball has seeking properties. The "core" of the energy ball moves toward the player, emitting energy around it. This core moves faster in phase 2.		Energy Ball: Fires a single large energy ball toward the player. This ball has seeking properties.

	* This attack cannot be parried.		* Like the flame balls, the energy ball cannot be destroyed with the player's sword. However, if the core contacts the player, even if the player is invincible (via Homing Dash, Roll, or i-frames from taking damage), the core and energy field will disappear.

	It's critical to get good at either ~~charged~~-~~slashing~~ or ~~dodging~~ through the energy ball attack, especially in the second phase when it's ~~exponentially~~ harder to ~~dodge~~.		It's critical to get good at either Homing-Dashing or rolling through the energy ball attack, especially in the second phase when it's much faster and harder to avoid.

	The ~~first set of~~ flame balls ~~is much~~ easier to avoid ~~moving vertically than horizontally~~. ~~Falling or using~~ the ~~pinwheels to rise is recommended as opposed to moving side to side, due to being quicker to entirely escape the scope of the attack. If~~ you ~~can time it well,~~ you ~~can try to circle Ancient Warrior, getting it to release the flame breath~~ only ~~when you~~'re moving ~~up and down~~.		The more space you have from the flame balls, the easier they are to avoid as they spread out. Note that the first set's 45 degree balls move at such a speed that they will hit you directly if you move only laterally in one direction. Don't hold in one direction, either stop moving for a second or dodge through them to avoid damage.

	~~If you can't avoid the~~ flame balls ~~vertically, note that~~ the ~~first set's 45 degree balls move~~ at ~~such~~ a ~~speed that they will hit you~~ directly ~~if you move only laterally in~~ one ~~direction~~. ~~Don~~'~~t hold in one direction~~, ~~either stop moving for a~~ second ~~or dodge through them~~ to ~~avoid~~ damage.		The first set of flame balls is much easier to avoid when the attack is aimed at a wall. The player can either fall to get outside the arc of travel, or use the pinwheels to rise. Pausing is still recommended, to prevent pinwheeling directly into one.

			During Ancient Warrior's second phase, the second swing of the player's horizontal strike becomes more dangerous to use, as the knockback can easily push the player off their platform. Similarly, using one's double jump too early can leave the player bereft of mobility to return to a platform. Careful positioning will prevent needless damage from the fiery floor.
