“The Rock Centipede, the Dream Lord of the Centipede Tunnel, is feared by many adventurers for its charge, unleashed with that enormous body, and the speed of its automatic regeneration. No, you did well to defeat it with a Heavy Knight and a Jester, neither of whom had a decisive attack.”
“S-So it really is usually that difficult...”
At Haraine’s words, Luche wore an expression that was hard to read.
...She was probably remembering our rather anticlimactic battle against the Rock Centipede.
By using the boulders in the boss room to catch the Rock Centipede’s body between its segments, you could rob it of its prized mobility in one fell swoop.
Its automatic regeneration was only a threat if you chipped away at it with ranged Skills or let the fight drag on because you couldn’t create an opening to attack.
As long as you could find a way to get on top of it, you could easily whittle down its HP by unleashing combo Skills, then dismounting and repositioning before it could thrash around, and repeating the process.
As for the Heavy Knight, now that I had 〈Deathline Rampaging Dragon〉 and 〈Desperate Resolve〉, I had nothing but decisive attacks. Haraine’s comment was just as off the mark there.
