Destroy Bionic Pooch in Risk of Rain Returns

AntMag.NET

Alright, so you're looking to take down the Bionic Pooch and snag that sweet 600 gold? This is one of the first real bosses you'll encounter, and it's a good way to learn how tank combat works in this game. Don't worry, it's not too bad once you know what you're doing!

Walkthrough

1
You'll start off in Riorad Village. Make sure you've grabbed any items from the wooden boxes and drawers around town – you never know what you might find!
2
Head southeast from Riorad Village until you reach the South Cave.
3
As you make your way through the cave, keep an eye out for more wooden boxes to loot.
4
When you get down to B2, you'll find the Bionic Pooch. Talk to it and when it asks if you want to fight, just say "yes."
5
During the fight, Red Wolf's tank will show up to lend a hand. Stick with it and focus on taking down the Bionic Pooch.
6
After you beat it, Red Wolf will chat with you. Just reply "yes" to whatever he asks.
7
Now, head over to the computer. Access the menu, select "search," and then "gate control." Choose "OPEN" and hit the A button twice.
8
Once the gate is open, go to your tank, Mosquito. Access the menu, select "get on and get off," then "get on," and finally "end."
9
Drive Mosquito out of the cave and head northwest towards the North Cave.

Tips

Always make sure your tank, Mosquito, is in good repair and has enough ammo before heading into a new area or boss fight.
Don't be afraid to backtrack to Riorad Village if you need to resupply or repair. It's better to be prepared!
Pay attention to Red Wolf's tank during the fight; it can help draw some of the boss's attention.

Defeating the Bionic Pooch will net you 600 gold, which is a nice chunk of change early on to upgrade your tank or buy new equipment.
