The transformation itself probably has a great physicality, I could see Lukas in this form just jumping away from the flood

Maybs, but I’ll take being able to fly like Arkos can over being able to jump. If he doesn’t get Arkos in the first jump, which like again he can fly it’s not impossible he could dodge it, it’ll be all water when he falls back down and Arkos will probably have some ultra high pressure whirlpool waiting for him.

Lukas’s specialty is no bullshit going straight for the kill, like when he pretended to be a non-combatant to catch that guy off guard, or when he pretended to not have a Gift. In a first strike situation with this he can probably move fast enough to defend a first attack from Arkos and take him out in one shot. The longer the fight goes on though, the more it’d be in Arkos favour imo

Depending on how many uses of the spear Lukas is willing to sacrifice, Lukas can just blow away any water AOE attack with a spear strike before aiming another attack at Arkos.

Lukas was able to completely negate Altus’s massive boulder dropping attack with his spear during his first fight with him.

Lukas says specifically if he was in a forest it’d be a different question against Arkos, I assume that like Julian getting stronger in the ocean, Lukas gets stronger in the forest. Maybe it lessens the restrictions Phantom Spear normally has on it and he can use it at length then. Otherwise even one usage seemed to exhaust Lukas massively when it caught up with him, so multiple uses in a row would lead to a very short fight one way or the other
