Megasparkle Goomba Battle Details:

  • HP: 90
  • Attack: ~5 (3 when blocked)
  • Defense: 7
  • The Megasparkle Goomba is a significant challenge due to its high defense. Use all your shiny/special/awesome stickers.
  • Before it assembles, use strong jump attacks like Shiny Hopslipper or Shiny Slaphammer.
  • Once assembled, use Flashy Jump(s), Shiny Jump(s), Scissors, or other powerful attacks. Weak attacks will have no effect.
  • The Goomba's attacks include a high jump for ~5 damage, rolling for ~7 damage, and sending shreds for ~3 damage each. These are avoidable.
  • Healing will likely be necessary.
  • After depleting its health, deal one more point of damage to defeat it.
Tips
  • You may need to ditch stickers like bombs if they become too burdensome.
  • Use the bomb's overworld explosions to destroy gates and fences.
  • The stickers collected on the walkway ([Fire Flower], [Hurlhammer], [Ice Flower], [Fire Flower]) are well worth the extra maneuvering.
  • Choose a good sticker to upgrade to "Shiny" or "Flashy" in the staircase zone.
  • Be sure to pick up the [Trumpet] outside the tower.
  • Make sure your stickers are ready before the Megasparkle Goomba battle.
  • DO NOT USE WEAK ATTACKS against the Megasparkle Goomba; they will have no effect.
