Bound Apostles are a Elite variant of the Retainers. They act almost identical to regular Apostles, the only difference being that they are bounded with Prismatic protection.

Gameplay

Bound Apostles are encountered multiple times throughout The Final Shape's storyline and the Pale Heart itself, usually accompanied by weaker enemies. They play similarly to their regular counterparts, with the only difference being a Prismatic Protection trait that blocks all incoming damage the player deals. The only way to break this protection is to enter Transcendence, which can either be done by killing enemies with Light or Darkness-aligned damage, applying Light or Darkness-aligned buff or debuffs, standing in Prismatic Wells or shooting at Bounded enemies themselves if a player's Transcendence bars aren’t filled. Once this protection has been broken, the Apostle cannot regenerate it, making them permanently vulnerable until killed.
