Overview
Wan Jun “Coppermaul” appears in the recorded demo content as an imposing boss built around a massive hammer. His scale and attack commitment make the encounter a useful illustration of Phantom Blade Zero’s defensive combat; survival depends on reading the actual swing rather than assuming every animation is immediately punishable.
What preview combat teaches
The large hammer tells suggest watching for delayed finishes and avoiding attacks while the boss is still active. This is a tactical reading of demonstration footage, not a definitive frame-data guide. In the final release we will document each named attack and the safest parry or dodge response after hands-on verification.
Bashpole and exploration
The demo shows the Bashpole Phantom Edge in connection with the Coppermaul encounter. It is depicted as a heavyweight attack option, and preview references also associate it with breaking certain environmental surfaces. Exact obstacle lists and the final reward screen are not yet confirmed.
What is still missing
The complete location route, all attacks, damage numbers, arena tricks, mandatory/optional status and retail difficulty differences still need capture from the launch version.
