Infinity Nikkiis all about styles and, sometimes, needs to exhibit a bit of that in the battlefield as well, as you need to defeat the toughest of enemies while you wear pretty clothes. The Thing In The Mist is the main boss that you will encounter on the Serenity Islands.
If you have dealt with the first phase of the boss, you’re able to’t take it easy as it will enter a much harder second phase. The boss, seemingly dressed as a conductor, doesn’t just send enemies, but will step into the field to take care of Nikki himself. You will need to be careful when you go near him to attack.
How To Unlock The Thing In The Mist Boss
The Thing In The Mist Boss unlocks during Chapter 2 of the Serenity Island’s exclusive quest. After completing the questContamination, Yet A Trace, you will unlock the Thunder Rumbles Through The Mist quest, where you find and explore a cavern. At the end of the cavern, you will be transported to a mysterious location where you will face off against the boss.
How To Defeat The Thing In The Mist
During the first phase of the battle, it willhurl some Esselings your waywhile also attacking you. So youneed to dodge the boss' attacks and also defeat all enemiesin the field. It will do that a couple of times, and after that Thing In The Mist will become corrupted, which is where the second phase of the battle starts.
The boss willattack you with long-range attacks during the first phase, which you can dodge by observing their trajectory. These attacks are in the form ofslashes, projectiles, tornadoes, and orbs.
Equip the Floral Gliding outfit before the second phase starts. You will definitely need it.
You now have to fight the actual boss instead of the mobs, but sinceit’s high in the skies, you will need to glide to reach it. Once you are directly above its head,plunge to deal damage. You have tohit it three times,but it’s easier said than done as the boss gets quite aggressive as well.
The best time to attack is when the boss stops after its attacking spree.
