Boss Battle
: Hewdraw Reborn


A relatively simple boss compared to what has come before, Hewdraw Reborn is primarily a ranged combatant. He swims around in the lake, occasionally leaping out to take a bite at you, or he rears back and uses one of his many ranged attacks on you.

Hewdraw Reborn’s ranged abilities come in several varieties. He will fire a homing scatter shot, missiles from the scales on his back, a series of water spheres that bounce around Pit’s spot on the shore, or basic fireballs that come straight at you. Staying on the run isn’t always good enough, so be ready to dodge at a moment’s notice.

After doing enough damage to Hewdraw Reborn, he will dive under the water, flinging orange energy spheres into the air as he swims around the lake. Shooting these causes them to dive straight into the water, and if they hit Hewdraw, they send him flying out of the water and onto the shore, giving you a chance to lay into him with your melee abilities. He eventually recovers from this and slips back into the water. However, be mindful of the purple energy spheres, as they turn into scatter shots that are aimed directly at you!

Defeating Hewdraw Reborn is not a difficult task if you have a weapon with reliable ranged attacks. As long as you take advantage of every opportunity to blast him out of the water, you can minimize your risk during this encounter immensely.
