BOSS MOVES:
- Web Spit: Joro spits a blob that creates a web on the ground, slowing your movement. She can spit one, three, or five blobs. Switch sides of the room to avoid large areas of webs.
- Leg Attack: A frontal lunge with her two front legs. This attack has limited range and is slow, allowing you to dodge and counter. She may perform a 1-4 hit combo.
- Slow String: A frontal attack that inflicts the "Slow" status. Evade left or right. If hit, stay defensive until the effect wears off.
- Jumping Slam: Joro jumps and slams down where you were. This is a slow attack, easily dodged if you have sufficient Ki (stamina).
- Lunge Attack: A straightforward frontal rush attack that can be evaded by dodging left or right.
- Defense Mode/Body Spin: Joro lowers herself and covers her rear. This enables the "Body Spin" move, a 360-degree spin attack with her behind. Only attack when she is not in Defense Mode.
