Survive the Big Kong's Leap Attack and Close the Distance

Recognize the Leap Attack Startup

The boss performs a big leap to close distance quickly. Watch for the boss to crouch or prepare itself before launching into the air. This attack covers significant ground and lands with impact.

Dodge the Landing

When the boss leaps toward you, sprint sideways perpendicular to its trajectory. Don't run directly away—the boss covers too much distance. Moving left or right gives you the best chance to avoid the landing impact. Jump if needed to gain extra clearance.

Capitalize on the Recovery Window

After landing, the boss has a brief moment of recovery before it can attack again. This is your window to deal damage. Close in quickly and land several hits before backing away to avoid its next attack.

Use Terrain Strategically

If your arena has slight elevation changes, use them to your advantage. The boss's leap attack is less effective on uneven ground, and you can use small obstacles to break line of sight temporarily.

Stay Aware of Your Position

Always know where you can run. Keep your arena clear so you have escape routes. If the boss leaps and you're cornered, you'll take damage and potentially get caught in a follow-up combo.
