Water Vellumental - Battle Strategy & Tips
Water Vellumental Overall Tips
- Waterspouts wash away panels
- Jump attack when the boss takes flight
- Use Vellumental Power when the boss's belly is full
- Use 1000 Fold Arm after Mega Wave
Waterspouts Wash Away Panels
The waterspouts placed on the puzzle will push out all icons in front of them - avoid using panels located in the path of these spouts!
Use Jump Attacks To Bring It Down To The Ground
The Water Vellumental has a tendency to stay in the air, making it impossible to hit with the hammer. Bring it down to the ground first by using a jump attack on it, such as with the Shiny Boots.
Stores Water For 3 Turns, Then Unleashes It
Make sure to keep your health up during the 4th turn of the Water Vellumental because it will unleash a huge wave of water that surrounds the whole arena!
Use Vellumental Power When Boss Is Full Of Water
When Water Vellumental's belly is completely filled up with water, it will use Big Wave (and eventually Mega Wave, Giga Wave, and Ultimate Wave), all of which deal devastating damage. You can dodge these move by stepping on the green Vellumental Power magic circle and summoning a slab of rock to stand on.

Use 1000 Fold Arm Right After Big Wave
The best timing to use 1000 fold arms is right after the Water Vellumental uses Big Wave and become drained. Activate 1000 Fold Arms by picking up "On" icon and use 1000 Fold Arms by reaching 1000 Fold Arms magic circle.
