Boss strategies
Boss fights mix Asterion melee cadence with maze pressure. Bring tempo traps—doors, mind effects, tentacle zones—not only raw spike damage. Check Theseus for melee specifics.
Corpse of King Minos (pattern summary)
Expect ranged gravity-style hazards and melee swings. Prioritize defensive windows: parry melee telegraphs, reposition out of void pools, and keep a fallback corridor with crossbows aimed at recovery points. Shotgun / nailgun-style loadouts (if available in your build) reward aggressive parry cycles; validate against patch notes on Steam.
Brutal mode
Speed and damage multipliers punish greedy trap economies. Stack reliable plates, keep boulders for burst, and avoid three-step combos that break when one piece is dismantled.
