Monoliths are used by [[Zeus]] to test [[Pit]]'s mettle in a [[Sacred Training Chamber]]. A monolith is an iron plate that falls down, some at various diagonals, others at more extreme veering paths. These training tools can [[Enemy Tactics#Swarm|quickly swarm]] all over the angel, so Pit must be at the top of his game to avoid getting badly beaten

Monoliths, now decorated with unique markings are present in multiple chapters of the game. Rather than being simple training devices this time around, they actually serve as enemies and are now interestingly affiliated with the Underworld Army. Monoliths try to block Pit's way by moving in a set path. Some Monoliths also serve as mobile platforms for grounded enemies to stand on during some air battles, which were first seen in ''[[Pandora's Labyrinth of Deceit]]''.  They cannot be hurt by any of Pit's attacks, but their predictable movement patterns make it simple to slip past them without being hit. Occasionally, they may orbit around other enemies, acting as an invulnerable shield for their allies.
