------YOUNG LORENZO------ (HG10.5)

Struggling with the final boss, Young Lorenzo, in Haunting Ground? Learn his devastating attacks, weaknesses, and how to survive his deadly puzzle rooms.

Alright, so you've made it to Young Lorenzo, the final boss of Haunting Ground. He's a real pain, especially since he's immune to your usual tricks. But don't worry, I'll walk you through this. He looks tough, and honestly, he kind of is, but we can get through this together.

Young Lorenzo's Disadvantages:

• He's got a bunch of really nasty attacks that can end you quickly.
• He has a nasty habit of just showing up out of nowhere.
• You can't hurt him with weapons unless Hewie helps out.
• His puzzle rooms can be super confusing, and it's easy to get lost.
• He's just plain hard to take down.
• Seriously, this guy *never* quits. He'll keep coming at you even after some pretty crazy stuff, like crawling out of lava.

Young Lorenzo's Advantages:

• He does give you breaks sometimes and leaves you alone for a while.
• The good news is, it doesn't take long to get to his boss fight once you start the area.

As you can see, there aren't many upsides to fighting him. Let's break down his attacks so you know what you're up against:

Young Lorenzo's Attacks:

• POWER ATTACK — He'll slam his fist into the ground, sending shockwaves your way. If these hit Fiona, she'll fall over, leaving you vulnerable. Just try to dodge these.
• LETHAL ATTACK — This is the one you *really* need to watch out for. He'll wave his arm and create a blue light. If this beam hits Fiona, it's instant death. Your best bet is to just stay out of his direct path when he's winding this up. He can also grab Fiona by the throat. When this happens, you need to mash the buttons like crazy or, even better, call Hewie for help. If you don't get free, it's game over.
• EXPLOSION — I've only seen this happen on Hard Mode, but he can cause some kind of explosion. It seems pretty devastating, but Hewie was the only one hit when I saw it, so it's hard to say for sure how bad it is for Fiona.

Take this guy down, and you'll be that much closer to finishing the game. Almost there!
