Sun Temple Boss

[Alphasoldier]

Oh yeah AND 8 sea loaf, always, even if it costs me to sacrifice a stat booster cooking item.

Which is what I did with this boss, I sacrificed almost every stat booster item to get sea loaf that would heal me, a still pretty good solution if you ask me.

I found a very easy movement-limitation-exploit on this boss.

Where you come into the room, there's an area free of urchins. It's literally just the boss-side of the door.
Sit in there, switch to energy mode and keep right clicking. The boss cannot get to you there, the only thing you can be hit by is the energy blasts he emits when he gets pissed off. You don't even move when he sucks/blows the water because you are in a little dip.

I used like two eye cake things to replenish my health, and didn't have to move around at all ! Try if if all else fails, this guy was seriously hard when I tried to fight him normally.

just show me a pic about that place

I too would like a picture of the correct place to sit.  I hate that guy.

Same here Glamador, I didn't use too much of my heal items but the fight left me feeling very breathless trying to avoid hime and those poisonous corals

There is one thing that really puzzles me about this place, how come you land to the left of the 'Sun temple' when you jump out of the ceiling of the bosses room, surely it's on the right of the temple? That is just so weird lol

I've just read through this thread from the beginning, what a lot of different ways of killing him I must try some of them next time instead of going in gungho lol

Lol. I just used energy form and swam around in circles about the room. Health items and some speed boost items. And some defence items.
He didn't seem that hard to me.. o.o;

I had trouble with this boss too - I was trying to be "clever" and was switching between Nature, Beast and Energy forms... and at one point, the worm seemed to get kinda stuck on one of the walls :X That's actually how I killed it, I think.  I don't know if that's a bug or if it just wanted to hang around. 

My comp crashed a while ago, and while I finally got Aquaria working, it's had a few mini bugs that let me know something is still wrong... and I wondered if that was what this was.  Sometimes places on the map flash and they're not supposed to be there at all on that area's map, and sometimes the darkness effect/light effect is messed up.  Sometimes I could see what I wasn't supposed to, and the Sun Form's charged ability didn't always work right away.  Not bad enough that I can't play, it's just a delayed action.

If you notice weird bugs, you should sign up for the new beta. It'd be helpful to test on hardware that has shown bugs previously!

You can find the info here if you haven't seen it already!

[Sirensongstress]

I don't know that it's so much bugs in Aquaria as my computer bugging out in order to show it on the screen.  Originally it did not do this, pre-crash.  I think part of the hardware was fried a bit, although when I took it in to get fixed, they didn't figure this out.

About the Sun Worm; anyone find it really scary that there is a hint that the sun worm was the god of this race/species of mer people and got angry and decided to burst out of someone's head?  I'd totally not want to see that or live through it *shudders*.
