Beneath, we’ll run by way of beat each boss in MIO. Nevertheless, we’re nonetheless placing our methods collectively, so we’ll add lacking bosses quickly that can assist you out.
1. Egis
Merchandise unlock: Silo Entry Badge
The primary of the MIO bosses, Egis is not too robust, however he could be difficult sufficient to take you out on the primary attempt. In truth, the worst factor about these MIO bosses, Egis included, is that you do not all the time know they’re coming. The primary time we fought Egis, we unwittingly went in with only one layer of protecting coating left earlier than we would even began.
Fortunately, there’s a Nacre Basin simply above Egis’ battlefield, behind an icy gate, so remember to use it if you happen to’re low on well being. In any other case, it is only a case of getting used to Egis’ strikes and, for essentially the most half, staying above him. Probably the most troublesome transfer to keep away from is his fast dart throughout the display, however you may inform he is about to drag this transfer as he revs up, like a runner on their marks. When this occurs, simply keep put and put together to leap virtually as quickly because the enemy reappears. Keep in mind this, and you must make gentle work of the primary MIO boss – main you to the Silo Entry Badge.
2. Crow
Regardless of the potential to return throughout Crow fairly early within the recreation, they’re one robust enemy to defeat. It would take one or two goes to begin to be taught their motion sample.
The primary transfer in Crow’s moveset sees them drop to the bottom. So long as you keep away from their touchdown space, which is straightforward, that is the perfect time to deal as a lot injury as attainable to the Automated Reaper. Even when it stands up and spins, it would not deal any injury, so do not be afraid to maintain hitting till it disappears.
From right here, Crow has a sweeping in-air assault and throws projectiles, so throughout this part, don’t fret about combating; merely preserve your distance and prioritize evading Crow’s personal assaults. Keep this sluggish and regular rhythm to ultimately defeat the boss. Issues do velocity up within the second part of the combat, however the premise is similar.
3. Flora
Merchandise unlock: Aviaries Passepartout
Like Egis, Flora is a vital boss to defeat to progress within the recreation, as killing the sentient Pearltrap reveals the Aviaries Passepartout, a vital key for unlocking extra of the map and the Dodge means.
To get previous it, it is advisable keep away from its arms and a poison spit assault, each of that are foreseen by visible and audio cues. When Flora begins to boost its arms, vines, stalks, no matter you wish to name them, in the back of the display, you understand an assault is coming. Once you hear a screech, it is a good signal {that a} poison assault is on the way in which.
For vine assaults, it is best to maneuver to the left of the display and be ready to leap. These strikes fluctuate all through the battle, however that is the perfect methodology to keep away from all of them. Staying to the left must also work for many poison assaults, however be cautious of those who challenge additional alongside the battleground.
Like with many of those MIO bosses, deal as a lot injury as attainable to Flora between their assaults, maybe even with the Kinetic Thrust Modifier outfitted.
4. Acat
In your combat with Acat, remember to have the Dodge means unlocked, which is obtained from the Unusual Tube within the Aviaries. When you’ve already fought Flora, you may have the important thing to the Avaries, however you may nonetheless get there with out it.
With Dodge outfitted, bait Acat into attacking by shifting side-to-side, and deal injury whereas he is on the bottom. For essentially the most half, you wish to leap whereas Acat prepares his subsequent assault. The primary exception right here is when he jumps within the air. Throughout these strikes, keep on the bottom till he assaults, after which leap. Strive to not waste your double leap, so you may keep within the air so long as attainable, and use Hairpin if you happen to come unstuck.
5. Calderon
When you’ve performed Silksong, Calderon’s boss battle performs out equally to that of Fourth Refrain in that you need to assault its shifting head whereas it assaults with its 4 arms. The trick right here is to maintain your eyes on the machine’s claws whereas attacking its head. Once they flip pink, they’re about to hit, and you’ll inform the place from their present place.
When the grabbers are up excessive, they’re going to come down and hit the bottom. Once they’re to the facet of Calderon, they’re going to swing into the center. This info is actually all it is advisable familiarize yourself with – and defeat – this boss.
6. Atmos
To defeat Atmos as simply as attainable, you may most likely need the Sail means, which might be discovered within the Unusual Tube on the high of the Bell Tower.
Atmos begins as a snowman, and whereas he could look cute, he shortly transforms right into a extra lethal type. Do not miss your alternative, then, to deal some fast injury to him in his snowman state. As soon as he transforms, you may keep pretty near him, dealing as a lot injury as attainable whereas he is nonetheless, and leaping up and over as he assaults.
Whereas Acat appears to be like to have fairly an advanced moveset, it is all largely innocent – he simply strikes round loads.
Acat’s most threatening assault, nonetheless, is when he strikes to both finish of the battlefield and shoots a rapid-fire projectile assault. That is when it is advisable use Sail. When you can merely leap over most of Acat’s projectiles, or evade those dropping from above, this fixed stream of ice bullets would not offer you an opportunity, so leap above it and keep there, touchdown close to Acat to deal some injury when he is finished.
7. Nabuu
Nabuu is as lethal as it’s stunning, and that is most likely essentially the most complicated battle you may have confronted thus far, due to its altering nature.
The phases the place Nabuu is on the bottom are comparatively simple, as you must simply keep beneath the deer-like creature, attacking its chest from under. This retains you out of the way in which of most of its assaults.
Nevertheless, Nabuu will transfer to the again of the display for the second part, throughout which era you need to as an alternative keep away from dropping explosives and a rising flood. For this, you may wish to assault the purple flowers to remain within the air, whereas using your Sail means between assaults.
The one different assault to pay attention to is when Nabuu channels its horns into the bottom, utilizing them to assault from different elements of the display. These can come from the bottom or from the perimeters of the sector, however the white glowing strands offer you loads of warning.
8. Sawlong
Sawlong is not a boss within the technical sense of getting to combat it. As an alternative, this harmful creature is to MIO what a boulder could be to Crash Bandicoot – you simply need to preserve from winding up beneath it.
The primary factor to bear in mind right here is that you’re going to want to make use of most of your unlocked skills, and if Sawlong does meet up with you, it is only a case of memorizing the route forward.
