They will still disappear and chomp, but after chomping they will now linger on the field for a few seconds in between Tired Chomps. It will take a while for them to get their energy back, so make the most of their exhaustion and do your best DPS during the extended vulnerability window before they go back from Tired Chomps to Seeking Chomps! | ||

Reaperfish is so large, and attacks so frequently and charges so far, that it can be hard to avoid their attacks even when trying your best to do so. That, along with the Mini Reaperfish shooting their projectiles, makes this into a potentially very dangerous battle. Make the most of the underwater arena, and save your double jump for when its needed. Remember, you can hold your jump key when underwater to gain quite a bit of vertical distance. | Reaperfish is so large, and attacks so frequently and charges so far, that it can be hard to avoid their attacks even when trying your best to do so.

The hand deals contact damage but moves rather slow, meanwhile the Ghost Puppets can fly and ignore terrain as they shoot a spray of projectiles. In order to defeat this boss, you must reduce the hand's HP to zero. In the process of doing so, you will be killing every Ghost Puppet as well. | ||
This is because the hand doesn't take any damage while even one Ghost Puppet lives, and Ghost Puppets don't take damage if they're near the hand. | |||
Something that is not depicted in the images here is that there will be strings connecting the Ghost Puppets to the hand. Once the Ghost Puppets are dragged far enough away to be dealt damage, the strings will turn from white to red to signal that it's time to lay on the hurt! | But it's not as dire as it may seem. Something that is not depicted in the images here is that there will be strings connecting the Ghost Puppets to the hand. Once the Ghost Puppets are dragged far enough away to be dealt damage, the strings will turn from white to red to signal that it's time to lay on the hurt! | ||
So what you must do is find a way to separate the Ghost Puppets from the hand. The most common method is to divide the group into three roles: hand holding aggro, Ghost Puppet killing, and Ghost Puppet wrangling. | |||
The Ghost Puppets need to constantly be dealt damage, or they will try and return to the hand. And due to the way aggro works, Ghost Puppets are liable to switch targets and move around a lot if the group is not stacked together. So try to stay near each other, and try to have at least one player with large or far-reaching skills to wrangle any Ghost Puppets that lose interest and try to go back to the hand. | The Ghost Puppets need to constantly be dealt damage, or they will try and return to the hand.
