vs. Vepar Boss Fight Tips
Equip The Claymore For More Damage
The Claymore is recommended for this fight since it deals the most damage, and the enemy is mostly stationary.
Occasionally Shoots Seama Pods
It will open up its mouth and shoot Seama pods. Make sure to take them out early so you can focus on the boss.
Also Shoots Ball of Water
The Vepar also shoots balls of water splashes that can deal significant damage. Make sure to evade using dodge or move away.
Lead The Balls Where You Want Them To Land
When you see this attack, you can lead them where you want to land, and then run towards the opposite direction to give you space to evade.
When Tentacle Lands, Jump To Evade
The tentacle can deal a lot of damage on Miriam and the timing can be tricky. The key is to wait for it to land first, and then jump as it sweeps.
Vepar Moves To Middle To Attack
Vepar will move towards the middle area and perform a sweeping water beam attack.
You Can Jump Through Beam
You will only take damage when hit at floor level. You can jump through the beam safely while attacking Vepar.
Can Tilt Ship Up & Down
The Vepar can also push the ship up and down. This allows you to reach her at certain parts however, some of her attacks can easily hit you if the ship is tilted up.
Use Your Directional Shard For More Damage
Your Directional Shard attack can deal much more damage than your weapons, so make use of them whenever you can.
