BOSS BATTLE: HYDRATED SNAKE EELS

Struggling with the Hydrated Snake Eels boss fight in Child of Light? This guide breaks down their HP, weaknesses, and the best strategies to take them down.

Stats / Weaknesses:

• Fiery Snake Eel: 330 HP, Weak to Water
• Watery Snake Eel: 270 HP, Weak to Lightning
• Green Snake Eel: 220 HP, Weak to Fire (can inflict Paralysis)
• Recommended Level: 15

Phases:

1. The three snake eels appear. They are distinct visually and have different elemental affinities and HP.
2. Focus fire on one eel at a time. The fiery eel uses group targeting fire magic, but your party should have decent magic resistance.
3. The green eel's main threat is its ability to paralyze you.

Strategy:

• Start by having Finn use his supereffective magic on one of the elemental eels (fiery or watery) until it's defeated.
• Once one is down, switch your focus to the next weakest or most threatening eel.
• Consider taking out the lower HP eels first (watery at 270 HP, green at 220 HP) to simplify the fight quicker.
• The fiery eel has the highest HP at 330, so it might be a good candidate to leave for last if you're struggling with its group attacks.
• After the battle, Finn purifies the fountain.
