Curse-Rotted Greatwood
The Curse-Rotted Greatwood is a unique and memorable boss encounter located in the Undead Settlement. Unlike many other bosses that rely on direct combat prowess, the Greatwood's primary weakness lies in the numerous egg sacs that adorn its body. The core strategy for this fight revolves around strategically popping these sacs. In the first phase, focus on attacking the egg sacs located on its front, limbs, and lower body. These sacs are relatively accessible and can be shattered with well-aimed strikes. As the fight progresses into the second phase, the arena undergoes a dramatic transformation. The floor collapses, revealing a massive, grotesque hand that emerges from the Greatwood's belly. This new phase introduces new targets: the egg sacs that now appear on this giant hand and on the Greatwood's back. Players must adapt their positioning and timing to strike these new weak points. Throughout both phases, it is crucial to be wary of the Greatwood's devastating slams and rolling attacks, which can cover a significant area and inflict heavy damage. Dodging these powerful assaults is paramount to survival. Successfully defeating the Curse-Rotted Greatwood yields the Soul of the Curse-Rotted Greatwood, which can be transposed into powerful items, and opens up new pathways within the Undead Settlement.
