- Weaknesses:
- Resistances: Slow, Petrification, Paralysis, Silence, Blind, Stun, Sleep, Bind, Heavy
Strategy
You'll need to one-shot each of the bombs. Each one has about 800HP.
Buff up with Whistle then attack with 1000 Needles on each of the sleeping bombs.
Alternately, use Bristle and any spell with 300+ potency on each bomb.
Act 2
Enemies
The Forefather
- Endurance: Above Average
- Strengths:
- Weaknesses:
- Resistances: Petrification, Paralysis, Silence, Stun, Sleep, Bind, Heavy, Instant Death
Strategy
Kill the Arena Grenade adds spawned by Forefather before they explode. If you use 1000 Needles, make sure you don't hit the Forefather.
When Forefather is at low HP, he will cast Burst which will wipe.
Get Forefather down to under 50% HP then use Off-guard, Moon Flute, Whistle, and Final Sting to finish him off before he finishes casting Burst.
