- +Acid spit has tracking and poisons on contact
- +Phase 2 grab deals massive damage
Weaknesses
- -Fire damage is extremely effective in both phases
- -Back weak points take greatly increased damage
- -Phase 1 is slow and highly telegraphed
- -Specter aggro trivializes phase 2 positioning
Attack Patterns
- 1Holy Slam -- slow overhead slam with holy energy
- 2Tentacle Sweep -- creature sweeps tentacles across arena
- 3Phase 2: Acid Spit -- launches corrosive projectiles
- 4Phase 2: Charge -- rushes forward with full creature body
- 5Phase 2: Grab -- monster form grabs and slams player
Boss Tips
- 1Phase 1: attack the human body from behind -- the creature underneath is the weak point
- 2Fire damage (Flamberge, Fire Grindstone) is extremely effective in both phases
- 3Phase 2: the monster fully emerges -- target the glowing weak spots on its back
- 4Dodge through the acid spit projectiles rather than away -- they have slight tracking
- 5Keep the Specter alive as long as possible -- it draws crucial aggro in phase 2
