Castlevania: Lords of Shadow

Practically all of his attacks can be blocked. If you move close to him, he will use an attack that is incredibly easy to get a synchronized block on. Just block the moment you see him attacking and it will most likely be a synchronized block. Then, use the Direct Counterstrike combo while he is dazed and repeat the process. Once your attack is over, he will use the same strike as before, allowing you to block and attack almost indefinitely. This works for both the start of the battle and after you get your magic back. While this does take slightly longer than magic-infused attacks, this is useful if you are trying to finish the trial and want to prevent Pan from healing. Basically, just get close, attack and block.

Play Chapter 6-4, "The Refectory" and kill The Evil Butcher. Do not take his key. Press Start, and select the "Reload Last Checkpoint" option to resume at the Quick Time Event where you need to hit The Evil Butcher's helmet.

Begin the "Abbey Tower" level and immediately walk out to the left from the corridor you are standing in. Look for an old wooden cart against the side of the building. Destroy the cart, and there will be a fallen comrade on the ground underneath the debris whom has a note attached. Pick up the note. It makes reference to his sister Laverne and brother Bernard, and it is signed by "H.", which refers to the other main character known as Hoagie.
