Note

• They respawn indefinitely, as they are needed to open the soul-devouring doors.
• Their flashy spear routines hit hard and in very quick succession, but they spend much longer recovering from a completely missed swing as opposed to a blocked one. Don't tank all of their hits, dodge them instead to gain an attack window.
• One of each pair ceases spawning after the door behind the pair is opened. It is not dependent on which one provided the soul to open the door, as even using a Ruin Sentinel's soul to open the door result gives the same result and the said Ruin Sentinel still spawns as before.
• Immune to poison.
