For the life of me this boss just keeps getting the better of me. I tried "spike boosting", crowd controlling and flailing like an idiot. It still kicks my behind

I need help with it

There is one tactic that is relatively glitchy on consoles, haven't tried it on Mac or PC yet, but it's the jump attacking. In a good 2D game, the jump attack consists of the player's character holding their weapon down until they strike an enemy. However, Rogue Legacy has a glitchy and really stupid jump attack system. The animation where you can perform a jump attack is about 0.4 seconds, about as much time as a dodge roll I-Frame period in Dark Souls 2. So when jump attacking, the game either doesn't count the attack as a jump attack, or it just doesn't work. 

Just plain flawed mechanic here.

RL Japanese edition has been released for PS4/PS3/Vita few days ago, so I will try to translate this wiki to Japanese, can I make a copy some images/words for Japanese?  

Planning Japanese Start page will be added to http://rogue-legacy.wikia.com/wiki/Rogue_Legacy_Wiki/Ja

thanks. 

Has the level of the hero (the playable character) an impact on his abilities/power/life/etc ?

Not sure if this is a bug or what, but just as the title says, when I have the flexible trait dashing is supposed to allow access to areas where normally you could only get with dwarfism, but it doesn't work.

I played for a little while this game and got all the runes (not bought but unlocked) and after opening fairy chest there are stats upgrades and I wanted to know if it's permanent for other character or only for one run?

This question is regarding the item "Calypso's Compass". I used this item and followed the directions and got to a secret room. When I entered the secret room I got kicked out of the room 2 seconds later.

Does any of this happen to you? Is there any way to prevent this from happening?
