I can't get past the sun temple boss! (Spoilers?)
« on: December 07, 2008, 04:20:51 am »
Wahh. I can't do it. He is just so tough. I have no spicy rolls... which means no energy boost. Plenty of soups, but the defense and speed wears off. I have been trying for hours, but he never seems to die. So two questions:

1. What is this spider food I am hearing about? It sounds useful.

2. Are there any tried and true strategies? I know switching between nature/energy/beast is one way. Any other techniques I should try?

Thanks.

Answering Question # 1: The "spider food" is a.k.a. the spider roll, and its recipe is the hand roll + the spider egg.

Answering Question # 2: What really helped for me was eating a speed soup and a spicy roll then spamming the boss until he got really angry (turned red) then switch back to normal, use the shield spell and reflect all his blasts back. Make sure that you use the beast form when he exhales or inhales. I know some people had luck trapping the worm in a corral of spider silk, but it didn't really work for me.

Hope that helps.  :)

There's a video on youtube of someone beating him.

And thanks for the recipe Chibi!

No problem man. You might want to check out this link if you're having difficulties finding all the foods. (Aquaria Strategy Wiki).

I'll post an edit once I find the YouTube Google video.

[EDIT]: It's a Google video, not a Youtube one (although the two are the about the same now).

I use a soup swim fast and just spam like crazy, so I must succeed on pure luck each time? Well except for that time that I jumped out the top and had to find my way back up again to finish him of lol Well who would guess that  there was an exit right there and especially in the heat of a battle :D

Just don't give in halo because it sometime takes more than a few goes to beat them, Octopus Prime is the one that got me beat for weeks until someone finally made me see the solution  :-[

Lol. Yeah. I'll keep at it. Are the remaining bosses as hard as this one? (related question: are there any more that simply involve spamming the attack button?)

To keep the answer simple: yes.  :) Don't worry, there are several more incredibly difficult bosses to defeat.

To keep this answer spoiler-free: there are about three more bosses that only involve spamming the fire button (in the beast, energy/**al, and sun forms.)

^ Oh boy. I can hardly wait (can you feel the sarcasm running through your veins?). Anyway, I just beat the boss, but I feel like a cheater because he got stuck on one of the spiny ledges up above. I just kept shooting, and that was about it. Oh well. lol.

Anyway, now it's on to Octopus Prime, then I am going to backtrack a bit to get some food/treasures before I move on to the abyss. I may even try the Simon Sezz boss a couple of times.

You are going to LOVE Octopus Prime and Simon Sez. XD /  ;D Make sure that you spend some more time in the Veil and sunlit regions: the Abyss and lower regions are large and very, very dark.  :)

This game just keeps astounding me with it's sheer size... It is just so BIG.

I beat octopus Prime and got the cute little octopus pet. I think I am going to make my way into the dark regions now... Also, I FINALLY killed that little guy with the dark purple shell... and got the divine soup recipe as a reward! Yay! :)

^^ Lol, yeah, I found that little phrase in a fortune cookie, and I just like it.  ^-^

^ OP took a while, but it was pretty easy once I got the pattern.
