Aquaria Boss Strategies

[silverflagon]

You do have to remove the claws before he starts jumping...but if you're clever you can find a way to kill him without doing so.

I can imagine a way now I've fought him once, perhaps if I play through it again I will try another way

I am stuck at the energy temple,
where can i find the energy god?

I you coul show me a part of the map it woul be great


thnx!!!!

[silverflagon]

If the door has shut behind you then you must of already met the energy god? But here is the part of the map with the Energy temple for you, just one thing, it isn't mine someone else created it so please don't give me the benefit will you



Those red lines? you need fishform to travel those but they aren't important at this stage, just keep moving to the left after that door closes and you can't miss the energy boss..

[Glamador]

Actually that's not correct.  Those red lines simply indicate that the part of the map shown overlaps with other parts of the map.  There is a fish form passage, but it is not marked on this map, it leads directly to the boss froom from the temple entrance.

[silverflagon]

Thank you Glamador I don't mind being corrected  I just hope it helps her ?

[QueenOfBipolars]

thanks anyway. I've just finished killing that three balls with lots of eyes, they took me a while.
This is a looooooooooooong game, i wonder if i will reach to the end...

[silverflagon]

Oh you will but enjoy the journey there I didn't want it to end at all, so once I manage to beat the end boss I am going to do it all again right from the start

Bump.

[Chibi]

What exactly are you doing, man? A forum search brings up this article easily enough. I wouldn't say this if you had written anything but "bump."    _{Sorry to chide you, that's really Alec's job and I'm not one to talk.} 

[EDIT]: Sorry for the nasty tone, I was woken up in the wee hours of the morning by my cat (he escaped, again).  / 

[silverflagon]

It doesn't hurt to bump a thread just once Chibi, though I think that everyone would object if it was done too often without some input. 

[Chibi]

Yeah, some threads do need to experience life again. Sorry man! 

[Nemo07]

Well, since this has been bumped I might as well get some help on a boss...

I'm on my second playthrough (my first was a 100% playthough) and I swear that Octopus Prime is by far the most difficult boss in the game. I know *how* to beat him, but I hardly ever get a chance because I'm constantly being hit due to the incredibly cramped arena and I run out of healing food incredibly quickly. Having to constantly retreat, switch to sun form, charge, and then go back to get rid of the darkness is pretty annoying too.

Are there any good strategies for this guy?

[silverflagon]

When I finally worked out that you had to stay near his mouth to keep his tongue out, I decided to just stay there firing blindly at it and just swoping to sun form when things got too claustrophobic, my health went down but strangly enough I didn't use up that much stock? I might of just found the spot where his tentacle couldn't touch me, because this would never work if he got a hold of me

[Xiagan]

Same for me. I stayed in front of his mouth and the other enemies weren't bothering me, and the tentacle was not bothering much. I lost like a quarter health max and he was dead very quickly. Easygoing.   

[Halo364]

If you look on youtube, you can see a guy play through that fight. He uses a safe spot, which is really helpful (that's how I beat him). You could try that: it makes the fight super easy.
