The game concludes with a duel against the Ancient Goop Monster, a swirling mass of fiery goo and machinery. This boss is notably more challenging compared to the others in an otherwise straightforward game. It features unpredictable attacks and a substantial health bar, making it a tough opponent.
Ancient Goop Monster Attacks
Unlike the typical boss fight that involves multiple phases with varied attacks, the Ancient Goop Monster relies on a consistent set of attacks throughout the encounter. It’s crucial to recognize and dodge them effectively. Here are the attacks you need to watch out for:
|
Attack |
How to Avoid |
|---|---|
|
Dual Fire Laser Guns |
A large red circle indicates where the beams of fire will strike. Simply sidestep this area. |
|
Rocket Barrage |
Three overlapping red circles will mark the ground where rockets will hit. Make sure to move out of these zones. |
|
Vertical Fire Guns |
After two red lines appear, the monster will shoot two flaming projectiles forward. This attack is easier to dodge compared to the circular one. |
|
Blight |
The monster calls down toxic blight, which deals damage upon contact. |
|
Slam Down |
The monster will slam down, creating a shockwave that you need to jump over to avoid taking damage. |
How to Beat the Ancient Goop Monster
Once you’ve mastered how to dodge the Ancient Goop Monster’s attacks, it’s time to focus on inflicting damage. First, activate your Focus to survey the area at the start of the battle.
This will reveal that the best approach is to target the joints on each of the monster’s legs. You have limited opportunities to land your attacks, so wait for the legs to glow blue and strike then. After hitting all four legs, the monster will topple, allowing you to deal significant damage while it’s vulnerable. Repeat this process until the battle concludes.
Additionally, when Blight appears on the ground, make sure to attack it as well. This will also inflict damage on the Ancient Goop Monster.
