Weaknesses come straight from the game data (they match the in-game board preview). The star ratings the preview shows for Strength / Intelligence / resistances aren't decoded yet, and attack patterns beyond the signature action aren't in the data at all — that's what the write-up below is for.

Mechanics

Borgny Piece — boss.

Suggested trio: Coblyn, Diremite, Drake — poison mitigation — with poison resistance from a shop or chest (e.g. Angel Robe) swap Coblyn and Drake for DPS.

Abilities

  • Toxic Breath — backsteps, then a lingering poison cone — get to the wall behind and stand to the side
  • Toxic Vomit — four baited puddles — drop them on a wall; Vulcanize / Smoldering Scales or pet-tank if unresisted
  • Fuming Vomit — AoEs that spread into eight moving clouds (slight knockback)
  • Wriggling Phlegm — baited AoE that spawns a slime; it walks to the nearest puddle and explodes (damage + Damage Down)
  • Cauterize — flies to a side, line divebomb with clouds, then a knockback from the middle
  • Salivous Snap — tankbuster

How to handle it

Poison resistance trivialises this fight — take it whenever the board offers it. Root the Wriggling Phlegm slime with Diremite’s Silkscreen and burn it before it reaches a pool.
