Sabasa is a giant witch that guards the Pumpkin Zone's Golden Coin. The battle takes place in a small room. Sabasa will fly around on her broomstick, occasionally swooping down or throwing potions that create small, damaging explosions on the ground. To defeat her, you need to jump on her head three times.
Phases & Attacks:
- Flight Pattern: Flies in a figure-eight or circular pattern.
- Potion Toss: Throws potions that explode on the ground, creating a small area of effect damage.
- Swoop Attack: Occasionally swoops low to try and hit Mario directly.
Weakness:
Sabasa's head. Three stomps are required.
Recommended Power-up:
Superball Flower: Extremely effective. You can hit Sabasa with Superballs from a safe distance, making the fight much easier and less risky. Three Superball hits will defeat her. Bunny Mario (Carrot): Useful for dodging potions and swoops, and for precisely landing on her head when she flies low.
Strategy:
- Prioritize Dodging: Sabasa's potions are her main threat. Observe their trajectory and move to avoid the explosions.
- Wait for Openings: She will occasionally fly low enough for Mario to jump on her head. This is your primary window for stomping.
- Superball Offensive: If you have Superballs, keep firing them at Sabasa. You don't need to wait for her to be low; Superballs can hit her at various heights.
- Stay Centered: Try to stay in the middle of the arena to give yourself room to react to her attacks.
Reward:
Golden Coin #3
