Galiant the Paladin

Galiant the Paladin is a ZPCI with the title of Paladin. He is the final boss of Gadi'Kala in Sonny. He is also a temporary teammate of the player in the battle against Baron Brixius in the previous stage.
He is a powerful ally and enemy with 4000 Focus Points and the ability to heal his entire health in a single turn.
==Involvement==
===As an Ally===
When Sonny first encounters him, he is about to begin his battle with Baron Brixus, a powerful zombie overlord. The Paladin mistakes Sonny and Veradux for his reinforcements, whom the protagonists had defeated just before. Sonny and Veradux decide to play along in order to more easily defeat the Baron. However, during the fight, Galiant begins to question whether they are really his reinforcements, as his real reinforcements consisted of a group of three.
===As an Enemy===
After Brixius has been defeated, Veradux persuades Sonny to attack the Paladin, much to the Paladin's surprise. Veradux says humans view Sonny and Veradux as "monsters", and that they can either be "alive monsters" or "dead monsters". Sonny is reluctant to do so since the Paladin helped them defeat the Baron, but he does it anyway.

==Tactics==
In order to defeat Galiant, you must weaken him so he heals. Because his heal requires a quarter of his total Focus, he should quickly run out of Focus to the point that he will no longer be able to heal himself. Another method is to attack him to point of when he would heal, then using Subversion. The player can also choose to exterminate the Paladin before he can even attempt to heal, but this option is hardly viable as the Paladin's healing has zero cooldown duration, and the attempt itself will cost too much Health and Focus in response. While fighting the Paladin, the player should also ensure that he and Veradux are able to survive until the Paladin's Focus is depleted. His damage input is fairly high and he can also use Electro-Bolt to nullify the player's buff. It is thus advised that the player prepare some additional defensive abilities beforehand to counter the Paladin's attacks, all the while having a good balance of the offensive abilities to force the Paladin to heal.
Alternatively, as a Gunslinger, having very high magic(~175) magic, using the combination 'Magic Bolt, Shatter Bolt, Magic Bolt, Magic Bolt' is almost guaranteed to kill the Paladin with very low damage being taken, even if you only put 1 point into those skills.
