The Architect is a Boss in Salt and Sanctuary
Kaira, one of two twins. She is an unmatched wielder of Salt Alkymancy, crafting the sea itself, poison with life force of a myriad of souls, into abominations of her own twisted design. Order allows life to cycle through the sea, with birth, death, as threads in the grand tapestry of ocean; Salt Alkymancy is an unnatural perversion of this order."

If you’re a mage, DEFINITELY equip Storm Barrage & Arcane Torrent on a staff. Don’t use the Queen of Smiles outfit (low holy defense).

I dont know where yall got your info from....but I just fought this duo and I went three dang times with...bloodfeather charm and band...defenders band...plated band and endurance band. I drank golden wine and applied pitchfire to weapon and die every.single.time. Jump to attempt four and I switch to lightening instead of pitch....they were dead in maybe four/five hits. Wayyyy before the GW ran out(60secs) Lightening is TENFOLDS more powerful in this fight.

No comments on the his horrible poison resist?
The unskinned is poisoned with every hit of a poison dealing weapon, it stacks beautifully with the Pessklaw
This one can be for some people one of the worst bosses on NG+ , combination of Unskinned attacks, that throws u all over the map and Architect's magic circles, makes literally pinball from u. You get and than 1 2 3 hits by those orbs and u are dead.
Shield, trying to fight unskinned alone, are best options for me and ofc ATTACK POWER.

I'm betting the Architect and the Witch of the Lake are the Princess and the Princess's maiden respectivily.
Their lore kinda fits both characters either trough their role in the game or their looks.
The princess and her maid would lure unaware adventurers/ mercs to travel with her as their bodyguards and send em to their doom in the island in order to continue their experiments (please the nameless god ?)
I might be looking too much into it but it wouldn't be too far fetched would it ?

Any ideas how to deal with mines Architect lays without shield? On later playthroughs you can't really dps Unskinned down before some RNG bombs explode on you.

Even easier in co-op, where the other player distracts the witch.Rush down the big guy, and make sure to stay out of the way of the mage's traps. Used the last bosses' greatsword, arcane paper, and goldenwine. Dies in about 10-15 seconds. The run there is about the same + a few extra for buffs. Carry a decent supply of bells and make sure not to kill both at once. Only the big guy.
Found this one harder than people seem to talk about. Needed to upgrade my Kureimoa to V.
