The Never-ending Arachne
The Ground Terror
The Never-ending Arachne is a boss in New Herland District known for shockwaves and lasers that travel along the ground. Jumping is an effective dodge for ground-based attacks, and Parry Attack can halt its combo strings.
Attack Patterns
The Never-ending Arachne specializes in ground-based area attacks that cover large portions of the arena. Understanding which attacks travel along the ground versus which target the player directly is key to efficient dodging.
Ground-Based Attacks
The majority of Arachne’s attacks are shockwaves and lasers that spread along the ground surface. These include:
- Shockwave Rings — Expanding rings of energy along the ground
- Laser Sweeps — Linear lasers that travel across the floor
- Ground Eruptions — Delayed explosions at marked ground positions
The critical insight is that jumping avoids all ground-based attacks. When you see energy gathering on the floor, jump to avoid damage entirely without needing precise dodge timing.
Combo Strings (No Visual Effects)
Some of Arachne’s combos have minimal or no visual effects, making them harder to anticipate. These combos can be interrupted with Parry Attack, which halts the combo string and creates a counter-attack window.
Strategy
| Priority | Action |
|---|---|
| 1 | Jump to avoid ground-spreading shockwaves and lasers |
| 2 | Use Parry Attack to interrupt combo strings |
| 3 | Use Critical Dodge for non-ground attacks |
| 4 | Stay airborne during intense ground barrage phases |
