Dodging Star Orb Missiles and Star Mines

Dealing with the Star Orb Companion

During battles featuring the Star Serpent boss, players must also contend with the Star Orb companion. This accompanying entity is far from passive; it actively launches dangerous missiles directly at targets during fights.

When you see the Star Orb preparing an attack, make sure to keep moving rather than standing still. Because the missiles it fires are powerful and hazardous, staying behind blocks or maintaining a wide distance can help you avoid taking direct hits while you focus your attention on the primary threats in the arena.

Surviving Environmental Star Mines

In addition to the attacks coming from the Star Orb and the boss itself, the environment poses its own dangers through detailed models for hazardous Star Mines.

These mines create dangerous terrain hazards that you must carefully step around during combat. Avoid walking directly into or near them, as triggering them will complicate an already intense encounter. Maintain situational awareness of the ground beneath you while dodging boss movements and projectile fire to successfully outlast the hazards.
