How to Defeat the Hunter’s March Boss (Easy Strategy)
Easy / “Cheese” Strategy
This strategy exploits the boss’s behavior by luring it between two specific points, forcing it into a predictable pattern.
1. The Locations:
You need to use two specific spots in the arena:
- Position 1: The entrance to the boss arena.
- Position 2: The hallway leading into the arena (just outside the main room).
2. The Strategy:
- Initiate the Pattern: Lure the boss to one side of the arena (e.g., the entrance).
- Bait the Attack: Get the boss to perform its grounded swiping attack.
- Trigger the Dig: After its combo, the boss will dig underground.
- Move Immediately: As soon as it digs, quickly run to the opposite location (e.g., if you were at the entrance, run to the hallway).
- The Loop: The boss will dig up where you previously were. As it emerges, you can safely land 1-2 attacks.
- Repeat: As the boss finishes emerging and is almost off-screen, start moving back to the other location to repeat the cycle.
3. Key Tips:
- Patience is Key: Only attempt 1-2 hits per cycle. Greed will get you hit.
- Timing: It may take a few tries to get the rhythm of the boss’s dig and emerge timing down.
- Consistency: Once the pattern is established, the fight becomes a simple, repetitive loop that minimizes risk.
This method effectively “cheeses” the boss by limiting its move set to predictable, easy-to-avoid attacks, allowing you to progress into Hunter’s March even if you find the fight difficult normally.
