'''{{PAGENAME}}''' is a Level 44 [[V Blood Carrier]].

==Location==
Vincent can be found patrolling the central region of the [https://vrising.fandom.com/wiki/Map:Vardoran?marker=90 Dunley Farmlands], starting and ending in the
[https://vrising.fandom.com/wiki/Map:Vardoran?marker=90 Militia Encampment] just north of [[Dunley Farmlands#Haunted Iron Mine|Haunted Iron Mine]]. His path proceeds southwest before turning north around the eastern side of [[Dunley Farmlands#Mosswick Village|Mosswick Village]], heading to the northern roads of Dunley, then turning south past the eastern side of the [[Dunley Farmlands#Dunley Farmers Market|Dunley Farmers Market]] to circle back to his starting point. He is guarded by two [[Enemies|Militia Crossbowmen]].

==Attacks==
*'''Double Swipe''' - His basic melee attack consists of 2 swipes with his mace that inflict {{Debuff|Chill}}.
*'''Frost Barrier''' - He creates a reflective shield that radiates a cone of frost damage which inflicts {{Debuff|Chill}} if hit. The shield does not deflect AoE attacks such as {{Ability|Bone Explosion}} or the crossbow's Rain of Bolts.
*'''Crystal Lance''' - He holds his shield in the air, then swipes it in front of him, firing 5 ice projectiles in a cone that inflict {{Debuff|Freeze}}. This ability is signaled by a distinct shrill sound effect.
*'''Chill Charge''' - He shouts "''I feel a chill coming on!''" and gains increased movement speed as well as ice particles around his feet. After running back and forth for a moment he will charge toward the player and inflict {{Debuff|Freeze}} if he hits them, then repeat this process 2 more times.
*'''Ice Vortex''' - He holds his shield in the air and conjures a large vortex of ice around him that inflicts {{Debuff|Chill}}. After a brief delay the vortex detonates, dealing massive damage to players inside it. The explosion deals damage a little further than the area indicates and the damage cannot be blocked by counter or barrier spells but can be dodged with a Veil dash.

===Brutal Difficulty===
Being in combat with him will cause the player to become snared (i.e. slowed) and lose 2 health per second. This health loss can be blocked by shields, such as those created by Frost Magic spells.
*'''Crystal Lance''' - This ability now fires 9 ice projectiles instead of 5.

==Strategy==
Vincent is an incredibly deadly boss that can easily lock players down with {{Debuff|Freeze}} while dealing massive damage to them. The threat of his freeze abilities means that using at least one defensive ability (such as a counter or shield spell) is highly encouraged to block them and prevent the player from being locked down. His '''Frost Barrier''' also makes minions (such as the skeletons from the Unholy spell tree) less desirable since they will often attack his shield and trigger the frost damage.

His '''Chill Charge''' is one of his most deadly abilities, since he can chain freeze the player or follow up with an '''Ice Vortex''' for massive damage. This attack can be dealt with by using a Veil dash at the last second to avoid it and hopefully trick him into using the 2nd charge on the player's afterimage. A barrier spell (such as {{Ability|Chaos Barrier}} or {{Ability|Ward of the Damned}}) can also block one or even 2 charges if he follows up very quickly. If all else fails then fighting him near a large physical obstacle, such as an indestructible rock, can allow the player to kite him around it while he wastes his charges.

As a member of the Militia, Vincent will be aided by any militia patrols or other allied V Blood bosses (such as [[Christina the Sun Priestess]]) who cross his path. This can make it difficult to fight him 1-on-1 while he is on patrol unless the player baits him away from the road or fights him at his Militia Encampment starting point after clearing it out ahead of time.

Alternatively, players can attempt to bait Vincent into fighting with [[Bane the Shadowblade]] if the two cross paths on their patrols through Dunley. One of them will likely kill the other while the survivor will be severely wounded and easier to finish off.

==Quotes==
===Sighting an enemy===

* "''Rally! Let's show them why you don't mess with the Militia!''"
* "''Don't you dare lay a finger on my people!''"
* "''Good luck getting through my shield, fiend!''"

===Death===

* "''You won't get away with this.''"
* "''The chill... of death.''"
* "''Not now... I have to keep going...''"
* "''I couldn't protect them...''"

==Trivia==
*The "sister" mentioned in his description is most likely [[Keely the Frost Archer]] since her description mentions being banished from the Dunley militia. Both characters have an affinity with frost magic.
*By extension, [[Sir Magnus the Overseer]] is most likely his father, as he also possess frost magic and is said to have been forced to banish his daughter.
*As of Patch 1.1, defeating him unlocks the {{Ability|Veil of Frost}} ability.
