Kupolovrax, a formidable boss in *Project Tower*, can be quite challenging due to its projectile-based attacks. Players might face numerous deaths while trying to defeat this enemy, but with the right strategies, overcoming Kupolovrax becomes much more manageable. While the boss's design suggests targeting its illuminated segments, hitting its carapace also deals damage, providing an alternative approach.
Project Tower: Kupolovrax Boss Guide
Phase 1
The battle with Kupolovrax starts on the platform, where players should keep a safe distance and continuously fire at the boss. Here are the strategies to dodge its attacks:
Orb Ring Fall: Kupolovrax summons orb rings that descend from the platform's edge to its center. To avoid this, players should watch the rings as they fall and dodge roll right before an orb hits.
Orb Scattershot Fall: Similar to the orb ring fall, but with a scattershot pattern. This is easier to dodge; players can simply look up and strafe around the falling orbs, using a dodge roll if necessary to evade direct hits.
Orb Line Push: Perhaps the trickiest attack in Phase 1, where Kupolovrax sends lines of orbs directly at the player. Avoid these by strafing through the gaps, or wait for the first line to approach, then dodge roll forward and dash forward immediately.
Stomp: Occasionally, Kupolovrax will stomp, sending out a shockwave. Players can easily jump over this and continue their assault.
Phase 2
At around 66% health, Kupolovrax takes to the air. Players should maintain their distance and keep firing while using these tactics to avoid its projectiles:
Orb Scattershot Fall: Kupolovrax launches orbs that slowly descend. These can be easily avoided by watching the sky and strafing into the gaps between them.
Orb Ring Push: The boss pushes rings of orbs that close in on the player. Hold your position until the last second, then dodge roll to the left or right to evade.
Orb Line Push: Similar to Phase 1, players can avoid this by waiting for the first line to get close, then dodge rolling forward and immediately dashing forward. Alternatively, dodge roll left or right and dash in the opposite direction to avoid the first line.
Phase 3
When Kupolovrax's health drops to around 33%, the final phase begins, which is similar to Phase 2 but includes a modified attack:
- Modified Orb Ring Push: This attack consists of three parts: rings closing in on the player, followed by two quick ring pushes, and then falling orb rings. To dodge, hold your position until the last moment, then dodge roll left, dash right to avoid the quick rings, and walk forward to avoid the falling orbs.
