The fight against Pandemonium is not very easy. There are quite a few attacks that can completely destroy you if you are not careful. In order to make sure that the fight against Pandemonium goes smoothly, these are the steps that you need to keep in mind:

Sanguine Rite: Pandemonium will summon large red circles on the ground with a massive orb of the same color above these. You need to ensure that you stand in the neutral zones once these red circles start appearing.

Explosive Mines: Pandemonium will often spawn mines on the ground that will explode the moment you touch them. You need to make sure that you stay aware even when you are dodging the enemy’s attacks.

Rictus of Horror: Pandemonium will release powerful beams of death and you need to dodge them. These beams are quite predictable and you can see the name of the attack appear on the screen. Make sure you sidestep whenever the warning sign appears.

Thus, once you get a hang of the enemy’s attacks and understand the timing windows, you should be able to deal with Pandemonium with ease.
