Act 1

Enemies

Arena Grenade

Strategy

You'll need to one-shot each of the sleeping bombs. Each one has about 760HP.

Use Bristle and any spell with 200+ potency on each bomb.

Alternately, attack with 1000 Needles on each bomb.

Act 2

Enemies

The Forefather

Strategy

Forefather will spawn in Arena Grenades by casting Bombshell Drop. Kill the Arena Grenade before Forefather casts Ignition. If you use 1000 Needles, make sure you don't hit the Forefather.

The second time he casts Bombshell Drop, he will summon an Arena Gas Grenade (blue) and immediately begin casting Burst which will cause wipe if completed. Use Sticky Tongue to pull the Arena Gas Bomb to the Forefather to stun him out of casting Burst. However, every spell that hits the blue Arena Gas Grenade will reset its cast time, so avoid using aoe spells after positioning it.

Get Forefather down to under 50% HP then use Off-guard, Moon Flute, Whistle, and Final Sting to finish him off before he casts Burst.
