How to defeat The Song boss in Furi?
Last update: 25 July 2016
Hold the Song at a safe distance and constantly fire at it. At first, the fight will be rather easy but it will get much harder as the battle progresses.
Phase 1
1. Two basic attacks are blue energy waves and indestructible waves of orbs. You need to dodge both of them.
2. Once in a while, the enemy will summon two large circles that will change into orbs. When that happens, get as far away from the opponent as possible. Only single projectiles will reach you.
3. The Song will fly to the arena and immediately swoop upon you. You can dodge or block the strike.
4. After some time, the boss will create several orbs (some of which are green) with a single safe zone in the middle. Get there and avoid incoming waves.
Phase 2
1. Additional attacks will consist of blue orbs and a large blue beam. Dodge or shoot the former and jump over the latter.
2. During the process of swooping down, the enemy will create huge shock waves which cannot be blocked. Instead, try to jump over them with a charged dodge.
3. During the phase of summoning orbs with a safe zone in the middle, the opponent will attack with a large blue laser. Dodge it and continue to fire back.
Phase 3
1. The Song will summon orange orbs that will divide themselves into smaller ones. Try to destroy as many as possible, as you will need some space to dodge incoming blue shock waves. After three waves, a forth, smaller one will come from one of the sides.
2. The boss will summon indestructible orbs that need to be dodged.
3. You can block the swooping strike which is a great way to heal. There will be three such attacks one after another.
4. Once in a while, two large circles made of blue orbs will be summoned. They can move close to the opponent (jump back) or far away (jump towards the boss using dodge).
Phase 4
1. The basic attack is a wave of orange orbs, with free spaces between them. You can easily get there using dodges if you place yourself at the very end of the larger arena just before the shot.
2. The melee attack will consist of three strikes: delayed, rapid, delayed.
3. When the boss begins to create a large energy circle, get to the end of the arena. Orbs that can be destroyed will appear in the middle. Apart from that, the boss can fire blue orbs and call orbs that will fall upon you. Blue circles will determine their location.
Phase 4.5
1. The melee attack will consist of three strikes: delayed, rapid, delayed.
2. The sequence will be preceded by red holograms.
3. A sequence of three yellow shots that can be blocked or dodged. The first one will be delayed, the second one rather quick and the last one delayed again.
Phase 5
1. The enemy will summon orbs falling from the sky.
2. The Song can fire blue orbs that can be easily destroyed and pink ones that will follow our hero. It’s better to dodge the latter.
3. During the second part of the phase, a blue layer will cover the outer part of the arena. You need to avoid it, so get to the inner part and dodge incoming blue waves and the energy beam.
Phase 5.5
1. A sequence of 6 rapid strikes.
2. Three slightly delayed shots that can be dodged or blocked.
3. A sequence of three blows preceded by a hologram.
Phase 6
Your task is to destroy 4 pillars at the end of the arena. With every pillar that you destroy, the enemy will gain an additional type of attack.
1. At first the Song will just use blue orbs.
2. Destroying the first pillar will add a large yellow beam that moves clockwise.
3. Destroying the second pillar will add red shock waves.
4. Destroying the third pillar will add projectiles falling from the sky.
5. Don’t rush and focus on dodging incoming strikes. Try to predict which one is going to get to you first (the wave or the beam). Don’t forget about the blue orbs. Dodge the waves by moving to the inner part of the arena and the beam by moving to the side. Destroy the green orbs to heal yourself.
6. Destroy the last pillar to get to a short but hard part of the battle. The boss will create a blue layer that will constantly move around and create safe zones. You need to jump between them till you reach the boss. Hit it once to end the duel.
