Stage 17: The Sword of Music

Video Guide

Note

This guide assumes that you have read the Basics & Spell Recommendations page and have the baseline spells recommended there.

Act 1

In Act 1 we have two Claw enemies to defeat. The Left Claw has a Repelling Spray buff that reflects magic damage, and the Right Claw has a Repelling Spray debuff that reflects physical damage (yes, they’re both called Repelling Spray). Use the opposing damage type to defeat each Claw and be careful about AOE to avoid reflecting damage back onto yourself. The Claws will cast some short-range line and cone AOEs that are easily avoided, so they’re not too scary overall.

Act 2

Kreios from Stage 2: Much Ado About Pudding returns for this stage and does the same stuff as before. Avoid his AOEs while killing him. Eventually he will spawn the Claws from Act 1. Kill the Claws while avoiding the AOEs and then go back to Kreios himself. Kreios casts Magitek Ray, which is a ground-targeted AOE that leaves behind a fire puddle. Magitek Ray can be interrupted with Flying Sardine or it can just be dodged entirely.

All enemies in this stage can be Vibe Checked, including Kreios in Act 2.
