he was your friend as the violin fencer but when escaping the brass castle you have to decide between him and bongo brigadier if you choose bongo the fencer is crushed under rubble and assumed dead but at the end of the game you find the violin fencer has become corrupted and is now working with the brass kingdom as revenge for being left behind after the battle its revealed he was being mind controlled and in his last moments he finds clarity again
@@larsthememelord3383 makes sense that he is mind controlled lest he is a pretty shitty friend considering he looks like a mature person who would nod and accept his end as you take bongo brigadier with you
" when the tuba king invaded the string isles the main string guards were first to go some died but some turned into what we see the power of vengeance and anger" the high arch mage of the brass highlands
@@justafriendlycrusader6550 Of course. I'd love to see a symphonic version of both phase one and two, blended together, with a bit more string and maybe even woodwind. I understand it takes quite a while to compose things such as that, which is why I am not forcing your hand if you refuse. Best of wishes, Daniel.
Sons_Of_Durin I’ll try to get that, but I am working with GarageBand, because I can not afford anything else. So it might be hard for me to do that for now, but I will try.
@@justafriendlycrusader6550 ever heard of a guy making themes foe Tuba bosses? Well he makes boss themes for the other instruments too! Mabey if you gave them the song you made so that they consider him a Secret Violin Class boss?
"No strings attached, dear. Although you might wanna need something to hold on to, for the climax is drawing nearer with every strike." The Corrupted Violin Fencer looks at you with a menacing grimace and starts playing an ominous melody. You smile, as you are proud of yourself for making it this far. "There is no going back now, i suppose", you convince yourself as you shrug. "The interlude is over", the fencer replies, "let the ballad begin."
I was wondering if i ever decide to create a boss out of this, can I use it with you in the credits(something like the name of the song in the bottom corner and in the after credits of the game)
I was talking about this entire 'brass kingdom' and everything related to it with some of my pals who are doing D&D... turns out the final boss for a campaign that got interrupted by the real world was in fact heavily inspired from this whole... I'm no longer calling this a meme... its evolved into something more..
“My intentions were given to you clearly from the start, yet you refused to hear them. My ideals laid before you with each second we spent together, every quest, every rest, every fight, every night. Yet, you chose to be blind to my goals, you pretended that I was someone I told you countless times I was not, I did not turn myself into what I am now, I always was. But only now, you decided to understand. Your journey ends here my friend, it’s time for you to become another note, in my endless symphony”
"These halls used to be filled with laughter, love, warmth, a home. Now the laughter has turned malicious, love has fled, the warmth grown cold in this ruin once called home."
@@KJ-ud9uf I cheered and went "fuck yeah!" but that's only because when I have a choice between good and evil and I can play through multiple times, I usually try to see how evil I can be first.
Here are the Music stats: *Brass:* Powerful medium range are attack. _They have as much attack variations as an army does._ *Woodwinds:* Precise long range attacks. _You can't see them, but they can see you._ *Strings:* Low area damage, high attack rate per second. _You're in trouble if you run into one of these._ *Percussion:* Medium damage single target short range attacks. _Great on the field. Good alone but great as a team._ *Composer:* Weak, High authority. _Is weak on it's own. Often intimidating, controls time and strength of all instruments._ *Choir:* High area damage. _Just one can slow you and weaken your attacks, a whole choir can do a lot more._
Ok, but in all seriousness, we need a music based dark souls-esque game where music replaces sorcery, classical is miracles and hexes are synthesized music. Idc if the art is stick figures or 8-bit like enter the gungeon. So long as it is made.
A once promising member of the High Holy String Order and one of the most loyal defenders of the String Kingdom. Word of the Tuba King's deeds had spread quickly to the String Kingdom as well as the state of affairs in the Brass Kingdom. Determined to spare the String Kingdom and all those within it from the Tuba King's corruption, he attempted to assemble a group of his fellow High Holy String members and mount a defensive force to defend the kingdom. However; his comrades scoffed and stated that he need not worry as the corruption would be contained to the brass kingdom. Unconvinced the Violin Fencer set off to fight against the corruption for the sake of the kingdom. Alas, the corruption spares none that it touches, and the once valiant Violin Fencer succumbed to the corruption and became one with the force he had vowed to halt. Free his soul maestro, and carry out the mission that he himself could not accomplish.
Flute knight: tch... Speak for yourself and your corrupted piece you wretched instruments for i will make this your last play May the land of orchestra banish you and your darkness Tone your string violinist For this will be your last.....
Corrupt Violin Fencer: "Ah, you speak such bold words my dear knight but this tis a battle of music not words, So enough chit chat." *"Let's see who will win and who will be played like a fiddle!"*
Flute knight:LET THIS BE A DANCE OF A FALLEN GRACE PREPARE YOURSELF ONLY ONE OF US WILL OUT TUNE THE OTHER DRAW YOUR WEAPON TUNE YOURSELVES *LET THE ORCHESTRA BEGIN!!!!*
The Violin Fencer stood upon his greatest work of art, his sharp bow and violin discord clenched with tight, and yet delicate fingers. His boots, white as the mask he dawned, trampled over each body, uncaring for the blood that stained them. The royal regalia he wore, a true symbol of the string kingdom, was bloodied and torn, a silent but eerie vapor flowing off of it. The violinist twiddled his fingers around the bow as he walked off the piles upon piles of dead warriors, trampling each piece of “pure” and “harmonic” violin and bow he found. His eyes turned to his own violin and bow; the corruption had already dug itself into their core. His violin had already colored itself ash and blood, and the bow he had been bestowed upon from his promotion to Lieutenant bared no longer his kingdom’s proud maroon and chocolate class color, but now degraded to a blunt brass and shrieking silver. He looked to the sky, watching as fires fumed smoke into the air and listened to the crackle of each flare. Any screams that should’ve been heard were already silenced by his own music, his own tune. He leapt from his spot on top of a beheaded soldier and clinged onto a building, once beautifully crafted in stone now rubbled to nothing but debris and cobble. Latching onto whatever was left, he bounced off of its platform, launching him high into the air and destroying whatever as left of the kingdom he protected. Without hesitation, he latched onto another pile of rubble higher up, and leapt off of it too. If he remembered correctly that was the library of sheets and scrolls. Another building he toppled over; that was the hospital of rosin and tuning. Another; it wasn’t even a building, it was a park playground’s slide for children. His contionous leaps finally stopped as he stood on top of tallest tower in the kingdom, watching the fires scatter and smoke rise. If he were to use a metaphor for his ascent, he’d call the fire around him judgement, and the tower enlightenment. What was an orchestra if not a bloated band of idiots following the same tune? An orchestra, a kingdom, those were not known for who the players truly were, they were known for who they were an orchestra, not a musician. He lowered his head, surveying the bodies below him, the bodies of warriors that attempted to fight him off. They all wore the exact same regalia, the exact same bow, the exact same violin, and the exact same tune. Everything. Exactly. The. Same. They were not known as musicians, they were known as an orchestra. They were nothing but symmetrical duplicates of each other, and that was what the Violinist Fencer despised most. He grasped the bloodied white cravat around his neck. According to the culture of the string, those that had reached a military rank as high as his were to be gifted one by their parents. Of course, what that culture neglects to mention was that every cravat was the exact same; it was like receiving a medal for graduating high school. He tore it off, and wrapped it around his arm. Symmetry would not do in his world. Was his world a harmonious one of order and peace? Yes, and that was the problem. It was boring, it was monotonous, it...wasn’t living. It wasn’t being. It simply wasn’t. No matter how well he played, no matter the wars he fought, they would speak of the String Kingdom, the String Orchestra, the String-kind. He was strong, but all he was ever known as was string. And so, he grasped it in a dream. A dream where songs ruptured ears and music cracked mirrors. Harmony was replaced by chaos and Discord was all he oculd hear. Discord? *d15ç0®∂* Whether it was a dark power or his own choice, he grasped the power offered in his dream, a power that only defined itself as “†µßå”. Only then had he finally understood his troubles. Why his mind never truly grasped the concept of harmony and peace, why his accomplishments never truly shined. Harmony was no song of life. Harmony is predictable. Harmony is reliable. Harmony can be repaired and continued. But when Harmony is broken, all that is remembered is Discord. Discord will always be remembered, discord will always be first to be noticed, Discord cannot be broken for it has already shattered. Discord always continues for it never ends. Discord was the song of life, the song of pride, the song that screamed “I am me. All of you are not.” If life was in fact, one giant song of discord...The violinist saw no reason to show the world exactly what that meant. -END-? Hey y’all, just wanted you to know that Bread is a loaf of beer.
Oh man, three years ago I was obsessed with this, so much so that I literally joined Orchestra so I could someday play it. Now I finally return, a somewhat seasoned player of the viola, only to find out that the melody is mostly cello.
"I remember when I was like you, filled with the joy and harmony of the Grand Orchestra. Now my eyes are open, and I understand that discord is the true song of life.
My favourite voice line of his is "Projectiles are for little brass brats." It really shows how he is corrupted yet has a sense of pride in the art of Fencing. It also gives a hint he feels greif, and that he doesn't want the corruption on him and can be repaired and even taken as an Ally. This is one of many ways to beat the game with the best ending. He'll be alone after the war, you can meet him in a bar, contemplating in regret.
Ahhh my favorite character in all the T.U.B.A lore. A wonderful and graceful , respectful violin fencer whom was bested by the Tuba King, forced to wallow in shame of losing all he loved and held dear, he succumbed to the darkness to obtain the ultimate power for his revenge. The perfect foil to the main protagonist~
A lot of the ideas can be adapted into D&D. For example, I'm definitely using the comments here to construct a minor/sidequest antagonist for my campaign setting, and I'm probably going to convert the concept into a class somehow, if I can get it to be different enough from Bard.
Corrupted Violin Fencer Strength: B Speed:A Defense: C Magic: C Vitality: B Accuracy: A Passive skill (2 passive) *Corrupted Violin Strings* - every time he attack (hit or miss) his speed and accuracy increase 8% *Corrupted Might* - when his health at 40% it automatically activate which increase defense and strength 70% *Note* When the second passive skill active the first passive skill will wear off but the stat that add during a long battle still remain Be careful hero/player
Magic is actually B everytime it uses its Corrupted Violin at 40% HP Dark Homing Music Notes/Orbs fly towards the player dealing insane damage all together with Corrupted Might if all the Orbs hit its death if the player is able to dodge the Orbs then its passive procs increasing its speed which stacks with each miss or hit and the Orbs stay on the ground as Dark Flames which can potentially cage the player forcing them to fight in close distance another trick that it performs is it has a ability which the Corrupted Orbs can be absorbed back as it calls back the Corruption which it then heals itself within the fight although magic isn't its primary focus early to mid fight it is only when it is Near death it plays the Violin more and more
maybe change his first passive to only stack after every hit he lands, but increase the speed and accuracy to 12%/15%, he doesn't lose stacks if he misses as soon as he reaches a certain amount of stacks (maybe 5 stacks? aka 60%/75% bonus) he lets those gathered stacks burst into a attack, where he dashes to you and fends with his violin bow at you and deals both dark and physical damage afterwards the stacks get reduced to 3 or alternatively removing all gathered stacks (maybe removing all in NG and reducing to 3 in NG+?)
@@LuLu-uz3lg well the first passive is depend how long the battle is and beside his a boss. I mean if you play a lot of game in the past like rpg, mmo rpg even some turn base strategy. you know how hard to kill a some monster or boss that has high speed and accuracy almost never miss, And every long battle there always some worth it reward
The World's Smallest Violin should be an optional boss. Land one hit and you win, but it has super high evasion stats. Edit: This would be the theme czcams.com/video/8jJJM_WYEx0/video.html
This is actually A) A very good and interesting Character design. I would love to see a story behind it and B) An Incredibly good Theme song for him. I am so impressed, I would expect this kind of quality from guys like Riot Games. But not from a Random person on the internet. The fact that you (probably) comissioned an Artist to illustrate this, is even more amazing. Not only mad respect for you, but also your artist!
I love how sinister it is. As The Corrupted Violin Fencer plays you start to feel something, a lull as if there were a nice pause in the conversation, as your eyes start to droop, The Fencer strikes with one full swift cut, and you fall into a deep magical sleep before you even feel the pain of your own death...The Fencer has claimed another victim.
"You know, Crusader. you have something here... be it known or not. what you choose to do with it may shape your very life. so why limit yourself in times like these, where such strength is so hard to find in the land of bland and mediocrity..." "now i have spoken. if you listen, you will make it"
If you can free him from his corruption without killing him you can add him as a party member. Quite possibly one of the best party members ability wise. He has regular skills and limited use skills. The limited use skills can only be refreshed at a resting point, but they can do some serious status effects like sleep, freeze, toxic, silence, and more. The best part is the fact that unlike other party members who can apply status effects, not only is it a 100% hit chance, it's can also be applied to enemies with resistance to it and deals true damage! Not even Bosses are resistant to his status effects.
@@korpsmaninfantry7238 That's probably his only major disadvantage and was initially his only viable build. However, players created a sustain build for him, since his status effects are the most important aspect, so keeping him alive with a tanky regeneration build let's him dish out status effects more often compared to letting him do damage in his instead of defending.
Was the man (or woman) behind the mask once a beautiful spectacle to behold? Perhaps, but surely if one were to remove the mask, the only thing they'd see underneath is a twisted shadow of Violin Fencer's former self.
The truth is, there would be no twisted shadow. Instead, there would be an abyss... one their former self had tried to cleanse before the darkness had expanded it enough to consume them.
"You enter a large room. Its walls are out of white marble and it has golden decorations on the walls. A man stands in the middle, dressed in what you can describe as either noble or high ranking army clothes. He silently watches you through a white mask with two black eyeholes which are connected with eachother through something that seems to be the mouth of the mask. He has golden ornaments on his mask which fit perfectly with his clothes and the room. He stands up right, with both of his hands behind his back. He draws the rapier out of its sheath. The hilt is golden as well but it has a small hook at the end which has a few strings over it, reaching back to the hilt of his rapier. Black smoke engulfs his arm and as it disappears, an ashen violin fills his hand. He puts it up to his face and starts playing. A few short notes which he repeats until suddenly a second instrument joins in. You look around the room but it is empty. Then suddenly a new string instrument echoes through the room. Then another. Finally, the Violinists arm gets engulfed in black smoke and the violin disappears into the smoke but the music keeps playing as he puts his rapier up into a fighting position. He is now suddenly in front of you about to strike! Roll for initiative."
Plot twist: That black miasma radiating from him is not the corrupted energy. He just stink of sweat after continuously playing the violin non-stop for his whole life after the curse of King Tuba's wrath befell him.
ok, i didnt even have to think through this... just checked some vids, and im sure that you're worthy to get on my "most underrated CZcamsrs that need more recognition" list... the songs are fantastic, creative... i bow to thee
The kingdom of Strings - the only one with the Orchestral force to come close to the kingdom of brass as you arrive at the main palace you seek help from your old childhood friend Prince Strings IV however something was amiss with the prince. It was a trap set by King Tuba II, Prince Strings wielding his Violin blade strikes at you. The kingdom of string had already been taken over long before the kingdom of brass had waged war on the other 3 kingdoms, and the prince rhythmically controlled from within. As you prepare your instrument you take one last look at the prince a shadow of his former self and your goal to defeat King Tuba II is reassured you shall bring balance to all of Orchestra -EN GARDE.
This looks like the lv 100 post-game secret boss who wants to kill both the protagonist and the antagonist. Y'know... the one who you die a million times trying to defeat and will give you a few extra lines of dialouge if you do, sparking an endless tidal-wave of theories across the fandom. That one.
“Beware the corrupted violin fencer, who has forsaken his oath, and and uses his music to his heart’s desire. Unwise would it be to call their magic pallor tricks in comparison to a mage’s magic, as their music isn’t bound by the rules woven into existing spell’s matrix. Rather, they are powered by the power of discord, who follows no rules but their own. Woe to any who meet him, for he is the most powerful of them all. For while the others need an orchestra to truly wreak havoc, he has his own ethereal one at his beck and call, ready to play any tune he needs or desires.” -Federick Nolan, former grand conductor of the 3rd string republic before the coupe by the exiled royal family
“He was a one of the few remaining veterans of the 6th drum war. You must understand, string-percussion hatred for one another stems from all the way back to the 1st instrument war. It was bloody and catastrophic for both sides, but especially for us since we couldn’t push out as much numbers as they did, nor in such constant waves. He was so young at that time, much too young in our culture to be normally sent off to war, but we were growing desperate. By the gods, was he a master. You knew he was there the moment that a formerly crumbling line was suddenly routing the enemy in droves. As the war passed, the conductors began to use him more and more in a more solitary fashion, striking within the night, and leaving carnage at dawn. That probably should’ve been sending us red flags, for who knows what he’s seen and forced to do to come out of there alive. We didn’t care at that point, however, as we became addicted to achieving victory at any cost. The worst part was what they did to him after the war was won and over. You know what they did to him? Booted him out of the military into the provincial militia, with no thanks, gratitude, honor, or even an empty vapid medal for all his sacrifices. The reason? Because he became a ‘liability’ and an ‘unwanted loose cannon’. Yes, they said it directly to his face. It shouldn’t come as a surprise that they are were one of the first to die under his wrath. I don’t know what god he prayed to or made a bargain with, but that’s probably just for the better. Some things are better left unknown.” -Christopher Zeel, veteran violin fencer
Description: Once the General of the String Army in the Tuba Wars, the violin fencer was an incredible asset and went up against many of the Tuba King ll's elite guards. However after the Brass Kingdom won the war, he was taken hostage before the High Tuba Priest where he was... cursed. Now nothing but evil, the once proud general of the String Kingdom lurks around Ukulele Isles, doomed to destroy his very kind against his will. The only part of his personality remaining is his sophisticated flowery manner of speech. However now, it would be more properly described as cunning. He's not actually required for the main quest as he has crazy high stats for the String Kingdom, but he surprisingly does affect the plot at times, creating obstacles in your path or occasionally making you fight groups of enemies if you haven't defeated him yet. Extremely fast on his feet, he also has a lot of dialogue in the game for an unrequired boss. And he always has a plan for everything. He may be a corrupted puppet, but he's a battle-worthy corrupted puppet indeed.

As such I shall place an impenetrable barrier to block your progress against my... idiosyncratic leader. *Places boulder, blocking your path* Yes, you querulous infants shall kneel before my meritable power!" Enemy Group Encounter: "Well hello again, bipeds. It is I, the unparagoned Violin Fencer! Though I must say, it is quite fortuitous that you have managed to expeditate this far, but no more! I shall summon a brigade of enemy soldiers to utterly extinguish you all! The Tuba King ll shall never be conquered!" Boss Encounter: "Interesting... it appears so that you undeveloped doodads have somehow stumbled into my hideaway! Then I will make it so that none of you filthy instruments will leave without being adequately exterminated! Prepare to be jolted by my fearsome onslaught you revolting scum!" When Heavily Damaged: "Eerrrggghh... Impossible! No musician on Orchestria can possibly escape my eradicative wrath! You will pay for this biped!" When Killed: "It cannot be... A lowly musician like you defeating one as competent as me? Alas, my notes end here, my symphony destroyed. Farewell foul scum, but I shall have my precious vengeance. There's no half-notes you can sing to get away from the grand Corrupted Violin Fencer! Bwahahaha...
*Fights sword to sword until players stamina is low* “I see you can’t fight any longer, don’t threat, the performance has only just begun. I’ll make you dance.” *Starts playing theme with ranged attacks and opponents stamina only just high enough to dodge* “I realise the pun, bow, ranged attacks, but I assure you the subtlety of my performance has more hidden emotions than that, tugging on your heart strings, the sound I’ll play on them... Will bring you to your knees!” *Appears behind the player and attempts to slash the back of their legs unless partied at the right time, the music still playing in the background* *more interchanging fazes, getting harder with more witty dialogue, but then the finale, you strike him and the health bar shows empty as he slumps down, presumably dead, the music stops, just silence.* “I bring the mellow in melody, make you writhe with the rhythm and corrupt you to the core with...” *the music slowly starts picking up again, on its peak.* “... an encore!” *the violin quickly raises above his head and plays itself bring his body back to life and the fight repeats, unless you destroy the violin, the violin is automatically destroyed after the third encore.*
A man once held in high esteem among the occupants in the stringdom, is now exiled for his dabbling in the dark arts, Influenced by the ones that adorn themselves with brass. Forever he waits among the rats, for he seeks revenge.
_"How foolish of you to disturb me when i was enjoying myself. Now let me play the melody of your death in return"_ - *Some random villain who suddenly appeared behind you* -
I just read through alot of comments and I'm noticing a theme. With all of the instrumental bosses, I'd like the idea where this is a video game. And the main character is called maestro. And he/she would be able to conduct all music instrumental forms as a a way of battle.
This Violin Fencer originally was one of the Royal Guards that was tasked to set prosperity and safety inside Kingdom of Strings. Until, the forces of the corrupted Tuba Kingdom comes to conquer the remaining sides of many Kingdoms in Orchestral Continent - this poor fellow dragged to the dark, cursed abyss of evil malignant power that resides within King Tuba II's disposal of Evil Forces or 'Energy' that supposedly rest in another side of the Orchestral Continent that has been sealed for countless millenia. And so, the power he gains from the negative influence that the Brass Kingdom has set upon Kingdom of Strings made him quite hard to fight with. Don't be fooled by his easy-looking appearance, as he before was chosen as one of the Noble Violinist and the best of the bests in Royal Guard's Armies. May sheer lucks rest beside you, maestro.
btw, no standing in one corner does not avoid the cannonball barrage, your best option is to watch the ground for shadows and try not to get too far from the center.
There’s a very dark but surprised feel when fencer gets corrupted, before this he was a friendly npc who even joined your party for certain parts of the game while very lightly and increasingly hinting at them becoming corrupted (to bad the second fight only happens on very long the route to the true/ completionist ending).
You are inside a marble palace with gold trim, after a long tour (guided by the music of violins) you will find a large door adorned with a gold violin on each door. With every step you take the music starts to stop ... When you open the doors you enter a theater and on the stage is the violin fencer watching you, greets you and invites you to come. Upon reaching the stage the fencer bows and begins to play, at the same time creating copies of the one they also play, forming a violin concert The violin fencer is very fast and while playing his violin he can dodge anything, but in each pause he will attack with his sword, the pauses are very short but while attacking he will not evade
"ah finally, a stringer whom is worth a battle with me! Fiddle the fith!, Engarde!" - dialouge if you meet his level exactly, and use the string class mostly, this is his only piece of dialouge.
His leitmotif reappears in Track 114: "Forget Me Not," which most of you know as the Royal Graveyard theme. Speed up "Forget Me Not" by 4x and you'll clearly hear the first few measures. I think it's great that it's the game's music that gives you the first clue who he really is.
Once your ally, and your closest friend, now a dark foe corrupted by The Tuba King. ... It's that voice again... "Let's show them who's the real monster." You pull out your flute sword, and ready your drum shield Sighing, you go for the attack.
Long ago, a fencer belonging to nobility and whose hobby was the violin, was touched by darkness and corrupted by it. As he fell deeper into the clutches of the evil brass cult, which worshipped the self proclaimed heinous tuba king, his fascination with his instrumend grew, and he elegantly began terrorizing small villages by playing a haunting melody, which instilled fear so strong, it paralyzed all who could hear it, only to kill them mercilessly with his sword. This omen however, is a call for help, from the depths of his heart, that wished to be purged in order to halt this genocide, to be slain by a hero that is strong enough to overcome the paralysis, fight back and rid the world of him and the darkness which took over him.
I love this! Like you know your weaknesses but since you probably been grinding this whole time you're basically a like Tuba king || (but less frustrating to beat)
“You saw them, didn’t ya? Bet you feel off-put about the glorious and majestic warriors of the strings empire plagued. But we gotta little potion to help ya with that.” - Tuba merchant.
Long you stood there, gazing into the hollow eyes of the former Violin Fencer, best swordsman of the string kingdom as he stood in a field of casted down weapons and instruments, still playing that damn tune on his violin. It felt like hours before the silence was broken with a high pitched, howling laughter that sent shivers threw your spine as you tried so desperately to maintain your composure. "Where's that bravado, young Maestro? I trained you better than that when you were younger, you know. The Tuba King will crush you in an instant if you face him like this." This wasn't him, years of fighting against the brass kingdom had left his mind shot, his allies gone, and his figure burnt from countless battles. He had become corrupted from the well spoken trainer and father figure you knew him as, you couldn't raise your sword. You had to find a way to talk him down, you opened your mouth, hoping to lie well enough to convince the two of you there was no need for bloodshed. "Fencer, please! The Tuba King has done terrible things to you, but you've lost your way! Sheath your weapon and let us fight together once again as brothers in arms." He giggles and speaks again, his voice low but full of quiet malice. "A flattering poet as well as swordsman, your father would be proud, but I've heard that one before. I've lost friends and family using that same hopeless naivete before, you wish to move forward and slay the maddened Tuba king? Kill me, your former trainer, and you will finally prove yourself as worthy in our greatest performance yet!"
I need more like this. Anything similar would be amazing Its been FOREVER since I felt inspired by music like this, nothing hits quite like this. Amazing work
The String kingdom prides itself over their mastery of the arts. Music, painting, poetry, combat, magic, you name it The corrupted violin fencer has forgotten the beauty of his kingdom and what he was fighting for when he confronted king tuba ll. The fencer deals constant residual damage using the spell Harsh strums. His basic attack is nothing to write home about but beware of the Entangled status effect it has a chance of inflicting, as it will render afflicted party members useless. He can also use En guarde to counter melee attacks. Throughout the fight he will charge his special attack Corrupted finale which will deal massive ranged damage that pierces armour and shields. On the bright side his health pool and defence aren’t super high until you reach the final encounter with him. Good luck.
This would be an awesome boss if he constantly attacked to the rhythm of the song and occasionally changed the tempo which would in turn change his attack speed and pattern
Guys, this is a *Corrupted Violin* Fencer theme. This isn't just another enemy from the Brass kingdom. *This is one of your friends.*
he was your friend as the violin fencer but when escaping the brass castle you have to decide between him and bongo brigadier if you choose bongo the fencer is crushed under rubble and assumed dead but at the end of the game you find the violin fencer has become corrupted and is now working with the brass kingdom as revenge for being left behind after the battle its revealed he was being mind controlled and in his last moments he finds clarity again
@@larsthememelord3383 makes sense that he is mind controlled lest he is a pretty shitty friend considering he looks like a mature person who would nod and accept his end as you take bongo brigadier with you

Napoleon 10 months later:
A once promising member of the High Holy String Order and one of the most loyal defenders of the String Kingdom. Word of the Tuba King's deeds had spread quickly to the String Kingdom as well as the state of affairs in the Brass Kingdom. Determined to spare the String Kingdom and all those within it from the Tuba King's corruption, he attempted to assemble a group of his fellow High Holy String members and mount a defensive force to defend the kingdom. However; his comrades scoffed and stated that he need not worry as the corruption would be contained to the brass kingdom. Unconvinced the Violin Fencer set off to fight against the corruption for the sake of the kingdom. Alas, the corruption spares none that it touches, and the once valiant Violin Fencer succumbed to the corruption and became one with the force he had vowed to halt. Free his soul maestro, and carry out the mission that he himself could not accomplish.
This is awesome

The Violin Fencer stood upon his greatest work of art, his sharp bow and violin discord clenched with tight, and yet delicate fingers. His boots, white as the mask he dawned, trampled over each body, uncaring for the blood that stained them. The royal regalia he wore, a true symbol of the string kingdom, was bloodied and torn, a silent but eerie vapor flowing off of it. The violinist twiddled his fingers around the bow as he walked off the piles upon piles of dead warriors, trampling each piece of “pure” and “harmonic” violin and bow he found.
His eyes turned to his own violin and bow; the corruption had already dug itself into their core. His violin had already colored itself ash and blood, and the bow he had been bestowed upon from his promotion to Lieutenant bared no longer his kingdom’s proud maroon and chocolate class color, but now degraded to a blunt brass and shrieking silver. He looked to the sky, watching as fires fumed smoke into the air and listened to the crackle of each flare. Any screams that should’ve been heard were already silenced by his own music, his own tune.
He leapt from his spot on top of a beheaded soldier and clinged onto a building, once beautifully crafted in stone now rubbled to nothing but debris and cobble. Latching onto whatever was left, he bounced off of its platform, launching him high into the air and destroying whatever as left of the kingdom he protected. Without hesitation, he latched onto another pile of rubble higher up, and leapt off of it too.
If he remembered correctly that was the library of sheets and scrolls. Another building he toppled over; that was the hospital of rosin and tuning. Another; it wasn’t even a building, it was a park playground’s slide for children. His contionous leaps finally stopped as he stood on top of tallest tower in the kingdom, watching the fires scatter and smoke rise. If he were to use a metaphor for his ascent, he’d call the fire around him judgement, and the tower enlightenment.
What was an orchestra if not a bloated band of idiots following the same tune? An orchestra, a kingdom, those were not known for who the players truly were, they were known for who they were an orchestra, not a musician. He lowered his head, surveying the bodies below him, the bodies of warriors that attempted to fight him off.
They all wore the exact same regalia, the exact same bow, the exact same violin, and the exact same tune.
Everything. Exactly. The. Same.
They were not known as musicians, they were known as an orchestra. They were nothing but symmetrical duplicates of each other, and that was what the Violinist Fencer despised most.
He grasped the bloodied white cravat around his neck. According to the culture of the string, those that had reached a military rank as high as his were to be gifted one by their parents. Of course, what that culture neglects to mention was that every cravat was the exact same; it was like receiving a medal for graduating high school.
He tore it off, and wrapped it around his arm. Symmetry would not do in his world.
Was his world a harmonious one of order and peace? Yes, and that was the problem. It was boring, it was monotonous, it...wasn’t living. It wasn’t being. It simply wasn’t.
No matter how well he played, no matter the wars he fought, they would speak of the String Kingdom, the String Orchestra, the String-kind.
He was strong, but all he was ever known as was string.
And so, he grasped it in a dream. A dream where songs ruptured ears and music cracked mirrors. Harmony was replaced by chaos and Discord was all he oculd hear.
Discord?
*d15ç0®∂*
Whether it was a dark power or his own choice, he grasped the power offered in his dream, a power that only defined itself as “†µßå”.
Only then had he finally understood his troubles. Why his mind never truly grasped the concept of harmony and peace, why his accomplishments never truly shined. Harmony was no song of life. Harmony is predictable. Harmony is reliable. Harmony can be repaired and continued.
But when Harmony is broken, all that is remembered is Discord.
Discord will always be remembered, discord will always be first to be noticed, Discord cannot be broken for it has already shattered. Discord always continues for it never ends. Discord was the song of life, the song of pride, the song that screamed “I am me. All of you are not.”
If life was in fact, one giant song of discord...The violinist saw no reason to show the world exactly what that meant.

My favourite voice line of his is "Projectiles are for little brass brats." It really shows how he is corrupted yet has a sense of pride in the art of Fencing. It also gives a hint he feels greif, and that he doesn't want the corruption on him and can be repaired and even taken as an Ally. This is one of many ways to beat the game with the best ending. He'll be alone after the war, you can meet him in a bar, contemplating in regret.

Corrupted Violin Fencer
Strength: B
Speed:A
Defense: C
Magic: C
Vitality: B
Accuracy: A
Passive skill (2 passive)
*Corrupted Violin Strings* - every time he attack (hit or miss) his speed and accuracy increase 8%
*Corrupted Might* - when his health at 40% it automatically activate which increase defense and strength 70%
*Note*
When the second passive skill active the first passive skill will wear off but the stat that add during a long battle still remain
Be careful hero/player
Magic is actually B everytime it uses its Corrupted Violin at 40% HP Dark Homing Music Notes/Orbs fly towards the player dealing insane damage all together with Corrupted Might if all the Orbs hit its death if the player is able to dodge the Orbs then its passive procs increasing its speed which stacks with each miss or hit and the Orbs stay on the ground as Dark Flames which can potentially cage the player forcing them to fight in close distance another trick that it performs is it has a ability which the Corrupted Orbs can be absorbed back as it calls back the Corruption which it then heals itself within the fight although magic isn't its primary focus early to mid fight it is only when it is Near death it plays the Violin more and more
Sean Egli maybe...
maybe calling the player Maestro is fitting since its part of the music theme that this meme (masterpiece)is becoming..
maybe change his first passive to only stack after every hit he lands, but increase the speed and accuracy to 12%/15%,
he doesn't lose stacks if he misses
as soon as he reaches a certain amount of stacks (maybe 5 stacks? aka 60%/75% bonus)
he lets those gathered stacks burst into a attack, where he dashes to you and fends with his violin bow at you and deals both dark and physical damage
afterwards the stacks get reduced to 3 or alternatively removing all gathered stacks (maybe removing all in NG and reducing to 3 in NG+?)
@@LuLu-uz3lg well the first passive is depend how long the battle is and beside his a boss. I mean if you play a lot of game in the past like rpg, mmo rpg even some turn base strategy. you know how hard to kill a some monster or boss that has high speed and accuracy almost never miss, And every long battle there always some worth it reward

Dont you mean, strats?
You know like stratavarius? Is that a violin?
This is actually A) A very good and interesting Character design. I would love to see a story behind it and B) An Incredibly good Theme song for him. I am so impressed, I would expect this kind of quality from guys like Riot Games. But not from a Random person on the internet. The fact that you (probably) comissioned an Artist to illustrate this, is even more amazing. Not only mad respect for you, but also your artist!
I love how sinister it is.
As The Corrupted Violin Fencer plays you start to feel something, a lull as if there were a nice pause in the conversation, as your eyes start to droop, The Fencer strikes with one full swift cut, and you fall into a deep magical sleep before you even feel the pain of your own death...The Fencer has claimed another victim.
"You know, Crusader. you have something here... be it known or not. what you choose to do with it may shape your very life. so why limit yourself in times like these, where such strength is so hard to find in the land of bland and mediocrity..."
"now i have spoken. if you listen, you will make it"
If you can free him from his corruption without killing him you can add him as a party member.
Quite possibly one of the best party members ability wise. He has regular skills and limited use skills. The limited use skills can only be refreshed at a resting point, but they can do some serious status effects like sleep, freeze, toxic, silence, and more. The best part is the fact that unlike other party members who can apply status effects, not only is it a 100% hit chance, it's can also be applied to enemies with resistance to it and deals true damage!
Not even Bosses are resistant to his status effects.
but his true damage isn't that high and you need a full crit build for him to work
@@korpsmaninfantry7238 That's probably his only major disadvantage and was initially his only viable build.
However, players created a sustain build for him, since his status effects are the most important aspect, so keeping him alive with a tanky regeneration build let's him dish out status effects more often compared to letting him do damage in his instead of defending.
I wanna know who this guy is and where he comes from, if OP and the comments on this thread aren't stringing me along.
Was the man (or woman) behind the mask once a beautiful spectacle to behold? Perhaps, but surely if one were to remove the mask, the only thing they'd see underneath is a twisted shadow of Violin Fencer's former self.
I'm the 69th like

That’s a nice quote right there
"You enter a large room. Its walls are out of white marble and it has golden decorations on the walls. A man stands in the middle, dressed in what you can describe as either noble or high ranking army clothes. He silently watches you through a white mask with two black eyeholes which are connected with eachother through something that seems to be the mouth of the mask. He has golden ornaments on his mask which fit perfectly with his clothes and the room. He stands up right, with both of his hands behind his back. He draws the rapier out of its sheath. The hilt is golden as well but it has a small hook at the end which has a few strings over it, reaching back to the hilt of his rapier. Black smoke engulfs his arm and as it disappears, an ashen violin fills his hand. He puts it up to his face and starts playing. A few short notes which he repeats until suddenly a second instrument joins in. You look around the room but it is empty. Then suddenly a new string instrument echoes through the room. Then another. Finally, the Violinists arm gets engulfed in black smoke and the violin disappears into the smoke but the music keeps playing as he puts his rapier up into a fighting position. He is now suddenly in front of you about to strike! Roll for initiative."

The kingdom of Strings - the only one with the Orchestral force to come close to the kingdom of brass as you arrive at the main palace you seek help from your old childhood friend Prince Strings IV however something was amiss with the prince. It was a trap set by King Tuba II, Prince Strings wielding his Violin blade strikes at you. The kingdom of string had already been taken over long before the kingdom of brass had waged war on the other 3 kingdoms, and the prince rhythmically controlled from within. As you prepare your instrument you take one last look at the prince a shadow of his former self and your goal to defeat King Tuba II is reassured you shall bring balance to all of Orchestra -EN GARDE.

“Beware the corrupted violin fencer, who has forsaken his oath, and and uses his music to his heart’s desire. Unwise would it be to call their magic pallor tricks in comparison to a mage’s magic, as their music isn’t bound by the rules woven into existing spell’s matrix. Rather, they are powered by the power of discord, who follows no rules but their own. Woe to any who meet him, for he is the most powerful of them all. For while the others need an orchestra to truly wreak havoc, he has his own ethereal one at his beck and call, ready to play any tune he needs or desires.”
-Federick Nolan, former grand conductor of the 3rd string republic before the coupe by the exiled royal family
“He was a one of the few remaining veterans of the 6th drum war. You must understand, string-percussion hatred for one another stems from all the way back to the 1st instrument war. It was bloody and catastrophic for both sides, but especially for us since we couldn’t push out as much numbers as they did, nor in such constant waves. He was so young at that time, much too young in our culture to be normally sent off to war, but we were growing desperate.
By the gods, was he a master. You knew he was there the moment that a formerly crumbling line was suddenly routing the enemy in droves. As the war passed, the conductors began to use him more and more in a more solitary fashion, striking within the night, and leaving carnage at dawn. That probably should’ve been sending us red flags, for who knows what he’s seen and forced to do to come out of there alive. We didn’t care at that point, however, as we became addicted to achieving victory at any cost. The worst part was what they did to him after the war was won and over. You know what they did to him? Booted him out of the military into the provincial militia, with no thanks, gratitude, honor, or even an empty vapid medal for all his sacrifices. The reason? Because he became a ‘liability’ and an ‘unwanted loose cannon’. Yes, they said it directly to his face. It shouldn’t come as a surprise that they are were one of the first to die under his wrath. I don’t know what god he prayed to or made a bargain with, but that’s probably just for the better. Some things are better left unknown.”
-Christopher Zeel, veteran violin fencer
Description: Once the General of the String Army in the Tuba Wars, the violin fencer was an incredible asset and went up against many of the Tuba King ll's elite guards. However after the Brass Kingdom won the war, he was taken hostage before the High Tuba Priest where he was... cursed. Now nothing but evil, the once proud general of the String Kingdom lurks around Ukulele Isles, doomed to destroy his very kind against his will. The only part of his personality remaining is his sophisticated flowery manner of speech. However now, it would be more properly described as cunning. He's not actually required for the main quest as he has crazy high stats for the String Kingdom, but he surprisingly does affect the plot at times, creating obstacles in your path or occasionally making you fight groups of enemies if you haven't defeated him yet. Extremely fast on his feet, he also has a lot of dialogue in the game for an unrequired boss. And he always has a plan for everything. He may be a corrupted puppet, but he's a battle-worthy corrupted puppet indeed.

Dialogue:
First Encounter: "Behold! It is I, master of mandolins, destroyer of drums, the Corrupted Violin Fencer! You perfidious fools cannot hope to defeat this grandiloquent musician! As such I shall place an impenetrable barrier to block your progress against my... idiosyncratic leader. *Places boulder, blocking your path* Yes, you querulous infants shall kneel before my meritable power!"
Enemy Group Encounter: "Well hello again, bipeds. It is I, the unparagoned Violin Fencer! Though I must say, it is quite fortuitous that you have managed to expeditate this far, but no more! I shall summon a brigade of enemy soldiers to utterly extinguish you all! The Tuba King ll shall never be conquered!"
Boss Encounter: "Interesting... it appears so that you undeveloped doodads have somehow stumbled into my hideaway! Then I will make it so that none of you filthy instruments will leave without being adequately exterminated! Prepare to be jolted by my fearsome onslaught you revolting scum!"
When Heavily Damaged: "Eerrrggghh... Impossible! No musician on Orchestria can possibly escape my eradicative wrath! You will pay for this biped!"
When Killed: "It cannot be... A lowly musician like you defeating one as competent as me? Alas, my notes end here, my symphony destroyed. Farewell foul scum, but I shall have my precious vengeance. There's no half-notes you can sing to get away from the grand Corrupted Violin Fencer! Bwahahaha...
i love this.
Dude wrote a whole novels worth of information
i dunno, the dialogues kinda feel wrong. i dont think he would speak like that
*Fights sword to sword until players stamina is low*
“I see you can’t fight any longer, don’t threat, the performance has only just begun. I’ll make you dance.”
*Starts playing theme with ranged attacks and opponents stamina only just high enough to dodge*
“I realise the pun, bow, ranged attacks, but I assure you the subtlety of my performance has more hidden emotions than that, tugging on your heart strings, the sound I’ll play on them... Will bring you to your knees!”
*Appears behind the player and attempts to slash the back of their legs unless partied at the right time, the music still playing in the background*
*more interchanging fazes, getting harder with more witty dialogue, but then the finale, you strike him and the health bar shows empty as he slumps down, presumably dead, the music stops, just silence.*
“I bring the mellow in melody, make you writhe with the rhythm and corrupt you to the core with...”
*the music slowly starts picking up again, on its peak.*
“... an encore!”
*the violin quickly raises above his head and plays itself bring his body back to life and the fight repeats, unless you destroy the violin, the violin is automatically destroyed after the third encore.*
A man once held in high esteem among the occupants in the stringdom, is now exiled for his dabbling in the dark arts, Influenced by the ones that adorn themselves with brass. Forever he waits among the rats, for he seeks revenge.
_"How foolish of you to disturb me when i was enjoying myself. Now let me play the melody of your death in return"_
- *Some random villain who suddenly appeared behind you* -
I literally checked my back and saw my mother with a slipper
Favorite line from the game
"I dont fear the powers the corruption has gifted me" that entire seen was tence and awesome
I just read through alot of comments and I'm noticing a theme. With all of the instrumental bosses, I'd like the idea where this is a video game. And the main character is called maestro. And he/she would be able to conduct all music instrumental forms as a a way of battle.
“Yes... at last, I can abandon my veneer of sanity. Come, I’ll show you the true meaning of the C minor.”
holy crap design is absolutely gorgeous, fits with the music almost perfectly, amazing work with the art right there, I can't stop looking at it
The sad thing is that this got claimed from a loop that is free to use for everyone.
do you know where i can find this loop?
Choose uniform...
Organize Musicians...
Select movements...
Confirm?
Last call...
RECITAL
COMMENCE
"Feel free to dance to your own demise." The Corrupt Violin Fencer exclaims as you feel a sense of dread crawling up your back
This looks like something that Team Cherry would make.
It does doesn't it
IT DOESSSS
Your old ally, corrupted by the dark King Tuba to fight against you.
This Violin Fencer originally was one of the Royal Guards that was tasked to set prosperity and safety inside Kingdom of Strings. Until, the forces of the corrupted Tuba Kingdom comes to conquer the remaining sides of many Kingdoms in Orchestral Continent - this poor fellow dragged to the dark, cursed abyss of evil malignant power that resides within King Tuba II's disposal of Evil Forces or 'Energy' that supposedly rest in another side of the Orchestral Continent that has been sealed for countless millenia.
And so, the power he gains from the negative influence that the Brass Kingdom has set upon Kingdom of Strings made him quite hard to fight with. Don't be fooled by his easy-looking appearance, as he before was chosen as one of the Noble Violinist and the best of the bests in Royal Guard's Armies.
May sheer lucks rest beside you, maestro.
imagine walk into a boss room only to see the boss playing violin in the middle of room then charge directly at you playing the violin LOUDER
"aboard the ship, the crew is dead, but above it all, stands a lone fencer, a defect, a *TRAITOR*. Time to cut the strings on this madness."
btw, no standing in one corner does not avoid the cannonball barrage, your best option is to watch the ground for shadows and try not to get too far from the center.
Artorias if he was a violinist
Haha, I understood that reference.
What’s funny is this guy’s mask reminded me of Lord’s Blade Ciaran. Coincidence? I think not.
There’s a very dark but surprised feel when fencer gets corrupted, before this he was a friendly npc who even joined your party for certain parts of the game while very lightly and increasingly hinting at them becoming corrupted (to bad the second fight only happens on very long the route to the true/ completionist ending).
>goes to tuba discord
>reads, then agrees to rules
>scrolls further down
>dont groom minors
yep thats discord alright
You are inside a marble palace with gold trim, after a long tour (guided by the music of violins) you will find a large door adorned with a gold violin on each door.
With every step you take the music starts to stop ... When you open the doors you enter a theater and on the stage is the violin fencer watching you, greets you and invites you to come.
Upon reaching the stage the fencer bows and begins to play, at the same time creating copies of the one they also play, forming a violin concert
The violin fencer is very fast and while playing his violin he can dodge anything, but in each pause he will attack with his sword, the pauses are very short but while attacking he will not evade
"ah finally, a stringer whom is worth a battle with me! Fiddle the fith!, Engarde!" - dialouge if you meet his level exactly, and use the string class mostly, this is his only piece of dialouge.
As you enter into the chamber hall, a figure stands tall at the opposite end and a melodic tune fills the room. You are filled with...DETERMINATION
* heavy breathing *
* cough *
"Friend, I'm sorry."
"I was made a deal.."
* cough *
"I couldn't refuse."
* fight begins *
His leitmotif reappears in Track 114: "Forget Me Not," which most of you know as the Royal Graveyard theme. Speed up "Forget Me Not" by 4x and you'll clearly hear the first few measures. I think it's great that it's the game's music that gives you the first clue who he really is.
Once your ally, and your closest friend, now a dark foe corrupted by The Tuba King.
...
It's that voice again...
"Let's show them who's the real monster."
You pull out your flute sword, and ready your drum shield
Sighing, you go for the attack.
Long ago, a fencer belonging to nobility and whose hobby was the violin, was touched by darkness and corrupted by it. As he fell deeper into the clutches of the evil brass cult, which worshipped the self proclaimed heinous tuba king, his fascination with his instrumend grew, and he elegantly began terrorizing small villages by playing a haunting melody, which instilled fear so strong, it paralyzed all who could hear it, only to kill them mercilessly with his sword. This omen however, is a call for help, from the depths of his heart, that wished to be purged in order to halt this genocide, to be slain by a hero that is strong enough to overcome the paralysis, fight back and rid the world of him and the darkness which took over him.
“Listen to my symphony of destruction”
thank you wyrm, very cool
@Stanley Chen no I am the pale king simpleton
So this is what violin legionary boss looks like in his final form
In this battle, you take the role of your second party member, fighting yourself.
I love this! Like you know your weaknesses but since you probably been grinding this whole time you're basically a like Tuba king || (but less frustrating to beat)
“You saw them, didn’t ya? Bet you feel off-put about the glorious and majestic warriors of the strings empire plagued. But we gotta little potion to help ya with that.” - Tuba merchant.
Long you stood there, gazing into the hollow eyes of the former Violin Fencer, best swordsman of the string kingdom as he stood in a field of casted down weapons and instruments, still playing that damn tune on his violin. It felt like hours before the silence was broken with a high pitched, howling laughter that sent shivers threw your spine as you tried so desperately to maintain your composure. "Where's that bravado, young Maestro? I trained you better than that when you were younger, you know. The Tuba King will crush you in an instant if you face him like this." This wasn't him, years of fighting against the brass kingdom had left his mind shot, his allies gone, and his figure burnt from countless battles. He had become corrupted from the well spoken trainer and father figure you knew him as, you couldn't raise your sword. You had to find a way to talk him down, you opened your mouth, hoping to lie well enough to convince the two of you there was no need for bloodshed. "Fencer, please! The Tuba King has done terrible things to you, but you've lost your way! Sheath your weapon and let us fight together once again as brothers in arms." He giggles and speaks again, his voice low but full of quiet malice. "A flattering poet as well as swordsman, your father would be proud, but I've heard that one before. I've lost friends and family using that same hopeless naivete before, you wish to move forward and slay the maddened Tuba king? Kill me, your former trainer, and you will finally prove yourself as worthy in our greatest performance yet!"
I need more like this. Anything similar would be amazing
Its been FOREVER since I felt inspired by music like this, nothing hits quite like this. Amazing work

このステータス表記、『転生したらドラゴンの卵だった』に似ているね｡
森月総一郎 もちろん、それは私がそれに基づいているものです。
Rumor has it that it can be seen out of bounds in the final boss fight in the game but i cannot confirm.
There’s a few parts where i swear i’m listening to pirates of the Caribbean. But this is amazing, jokingly made or not.
The String kingdom prides itself over their mastery of the arts. Music, painting, poetry, combat, magic, you name it
The corrupted violin fencer has forgotten the beauty of his kingdom and what he was fighting for when he confronted king tuba ll.
The fencer deals constant residual damage using the spell Harsh strums. His basic attack is nothing to write home about but beware of the Entangled status effect it has a chance of inflicting, as it will render afflicted party members useless. He can also use En guarde to counter melee attacks. Throughout the fight he will charge his special attack Corrupted finale which will deal massive ranged damage that pierces armour and shields.
On the bright side his health pool and defence aren’t super high until you reach the final encounter with him. Good luck.
That artwork tho, Epic. He looks like a naval officer. Would be a nice friend i think. Good video
"My strong and sleek blade will put an end to your pathetic quest."
"The music, the music! It plays on and on in my head, and only your screams silence them."
This would be an awesome boss if he constantly attacked to the rhythm of the song and occasionally changed the tempo which would in turn change his attack speed and pattern
Yes
