Conquering Kupolovrax: A Comprehensive Guide to Project Tower's Challenging Boss
Kupolovrax, a formidable boss in Project Tower, presents a significant challenge due to its projectile-heavy attacks. This guide outlines effective strategies to overcome this enemy and emerge victorious. While targeting the illuminated segments seems intuitive, damage is also inflicted by shots hitting the carapace.
Phase 1:
In the initial phase, Kupolovrax remains grounded. Maintain a safe distance, consistently fire upon the enemy, and employ these evasion techniques:
- Orb Ring Fall: As orb rings descend from the platform's edge, look up and execute a dodge roll just before impact.
- Orb Scattershot Fall: This scattershot attack is easier to navigate. Strafe while looking up to dodge the falling projectiles. A dodge roll provides additional safety.
- Orb Line Push: This is the most challenging Phase 1 attack. Instead of continuous strafing, wait for the first line to approach, perform a forward dodge roll, and immediately dash forward.
- Stomp: Kupolovrax's stomp generates a shockwave. Simply jump over the shockwave to avoid damage; you can even continue firing during the jump.
Phase 2:
Kupolovrax takes flight around 66% health. Continue maintaining distance and firing while using these avoidance tactics:
- Orb Scattershot Fall: The slow descent of these orbs allows for easy evasion by observing their trajectory and strafing into the gaps.
- Orb Ring Push: Hold your position until the rings are about to hit, then execute a dodge roll to the left or right.
- Orb Line Push: Similar to Phase 1, wait for the first line, perform a forward dodge roll, and immediately dash forward. Alternatively, dodge roll left or right, then dash in the opposite direction.
Phase 3:
Triggered at approximately 33% health, Phase 3 resembles Phase 2 but introduces a modified attack:
- Modified Orb Ring Push: This three-part attack consists of converging rings, followed by two rapid ring pushes, and finally, falling orb rings. Hold your position, dodge roll left just before impact, immediately dash right to evade the quick rings, and walk forward to avoid the falling orbs.
Mastering these strategies will significantly increase your chances of defeating Kupolovrax in Project Tower, available on PC and PS5.
