If you are using Spirit Ashes for this fight, make sure to summon your helper as soon as you enter the boss arena because the enemies will start attacking you right after they appear. Ideally, you should allow your Spirit Ashes to distract one or both Banished Knights before attacking so that you can begin the fight more smoothly.
