Strategy:

Abaddon is a large, insectoid boss that controls swarms of locusts. The key to this fight is managing the locusts. They come in various patterns: horizontal swarms, diving attacks, and charges. Use your backdash and jumps to avoid them. Abaddon himself is a large target, so focus your attacks on him when the locusts are manageable. He occasionally performs a body slam; move away from his landing zone. This fight can be overwhelming due to the sheer number of projectiles, so stay calm and prioritize dodging. After defeating him, you gain the Abaddon Soul (Bullet), which summons a swarm of locusts.
