How to Beat The Fengs

Learn how to defeat the Fengs in Nine Sols with this detailed boss guide. Discover their attack patterns, weaknesses, and effective strategies to overcome this challenging encounter.

Stats / Weaknesses:

• Essentially an enhanced Red Tiger Elite.
• Vulnerable to consistent, well-timed attacks.
• Environmental hazards (spikes) can be used against them if positioned correctly, but also pose a threat to the player.

Phases:

1. The fight begins immediately upon entering the designated arena in the Factory (Underground).
2. The Fengs will employ a mix of their standard attacks, similar to the Red Tiger Elite, but with increased aggression and damage.
3. Environmental hazards, such as falling red spikes, will periodically activate, forcing the player to constantly reposition.
4. The fight concludes when both Fengs are defeated.

Strategy:

• Maintain a safe distance initially to observe their attack patterns.
• Prioritize dodging their leaping crimson attacks and sword swings.
• Look for openings after they complete a combo, typically after three overhead hits or two sword swings, to land your own attacks.
• Be mindful of the red spikes that drop from the ceiling; dodge them as they fall.
• If possible, try to lure them near the spikes to potentially damage them, but be cautious not to get caught yourself.
• Use the charge attack effectively to stagger them or interrupt their advances.
• Patience is key; avoid being overly aggressive and focus on survival and counter-attacks.
• Defeating them yields a Standard Component.
