Combat[edit | edit source]
This section describes how to fight against the Megapithecus Pestis.
General[edit | edit source]
The arena is divided into 5 different sections by rocky outcroppings that jut from the floor. There is enough space between the walls and the rocks that the boss, as well as the survivor, can move through them. The Megapithecus Pestis possesses two attacks, a smash which causes a large knockback and a ranged attack where it tosses a large boulder at the survivor. The boulder deals a significant amount of damage upon impact. The Megapithecus Pestis can summon Gigantopithecus, which will chase after the survivor and attempt to cut them off, and
Mesopithecus, which will throw
Feces to trigger a slow effect as well as drain
Health over time.
Strategy[edit | edit source]
The Megapithecus Pestis can be easily confused by the large rocks, which may block its direction. The bulky body of the Megapithecus Pestis sticks out, allowing it to be shot at.
Weaponry[edit | edit source]
Using a Compound Bow can deal decent amounts of damage and keeps the survivor at a reasonable distance. Using a
Shotgun will deal greater damage, but it can put the survivor dangerously close to the Megapithecus Pestis.
Dangers[edit | edit source]
The Megapithecus Pestis will attempt to hurl enormous rocks at the survivor. The Mesopithecus minions it summons inflict
Torpor that can put a survivor to sleep. Multiple hits from the large boulders can catch an unsuspecting survivor off guard, as the sudden, collective damage may be fatal.
Weakness[edit | edit source]
A good ranged weapon like compound bows can do lots of damage to it or a pump shotgun
