How to Beat “Chorus” Boss
Key Battle Mechanics & Challenges:
- Shattering Floor: The ground beneath you will periodically break apart, severely limiting your safe standing space and mobility.
- Descending Arms: The spider’s limbs will strike down from the ceiling, creating an additional layer of threat from above.
- These combined attacks create a chaotic and difficult environment, forcing you to constantly be aware of your positioning.
Core Strategy: Aim for the Head
Despite the chaos, the strategy for defeating this boss is straightforward:
- Primary Target: Your main objective is to aim for and attack the spider’s head. Dealing damage to its body or limbs is far less effective.
- Patience is Key: You will need to play defensively for a large portion of this fight. Your focus should be on evading the floor hazards and descending arms while waiting for a clear opening to strike the head.
- Capitalize on Vulnerabilities: The boss has two major moments of vulnerability:
- The Collapse: After a certain period or sequence of attacks, the spider will collapse onto the ground. While it’s down, its head is exposed and much easier to hit. Use this time to unleash as much damage as possible.
- The Dizzy State: The spider will occasionally become dizzy and disoriented. This is your prime opportunity to go on the offensive. Attack the head relentlessly during this state to deal massive damage and significantly increase your chance of defeating it quickly.
Summary and Tips:

- Survive First: Prioritize dodging over attacking. Learn the attack patterns to navigate the breaking floor and avoid the falling limbs.
- Strike the Head: Only commit to attacks when you have a clear and safe shot at the boss’s head.
- Exploit Openings: Be patient and wait for the boss to collapse or become dizzy before launching your full assault.
- Estimated Duration: If you efficiently target the head during its vulnerable phases, the fight can be concluded in approximately 1-2 minutes.

This fight tests your patience and precision. By playing a smart defensive game and capitalizing on the brief windows of opportunity, you will overcome this challenging adversary. Good luck!
