Equip The Gas Mask
The Gas Mask is useful as the locations where you will face the Bombardier Beetle will be full of hazardous haze. Having the gas mask will filter out the haze, allowing you to negate the damage-over-time the haze deals.
Get The Spider Armor
Ideally, you would want to have spider armor equipped on you during this fight. It will give you a huge defense boost, and increase your stamina, allowing you to keep up with the Bombardier Beetle during the fight.
Use Tier 2 Axe
The Insect Axe is a tier 2 Axe that excels in stunning enemies in addition to its good damage and speed. It is a good weapon to have with you when facing off against the large enemy.
Battle Tips
Stay Clear Of The Ranged Attack
The Bombardier Beetle will sometimes point its rear end at you and spray a gas. This lingers in the area and deals damage over time. Make sure to steer clear of this by moving to the sides of the beetle to avoid taking hits!
Block During Beetle's Wind Up
The Beetle will try to close the gap between you two. It will then back up to wind up its attack. You will notice its mandibles twitching. Put up your block to negate the beetle's attack. You can also opt to dodge out of the way.
Counter During Attack Animations
The Bombardier Beetle is susceptible to counterattacks during its attack animations. If you keep moving around the enemy, you will get tons of free hits on the enemy!
