Gameplay Mechanics:

This event features simulated beetle battles within your Serenitea Pot. Using simple controls (Forward, Backward, Jump), you'll command your Onikabuto against various enemies. Careful stamina management is key, as movement and attacks consume stamina. Master the timing of your Piercing Strike for maximum damage.

Battling the Beetles:

The five stages present unique challenges:

  1. "Staff Master Who Only Uses Basic Horizontal Sweeps": A basic Hilichurl; focus attacks on its head, dodging its predictable attacks.
  2. "Staff Master Who Waves a Torch About Non-Stop": A Hilichurl Berserker with a Pyro Slime; target its head and the Pyro Slime, particularly when it's preparing to throw it.
  3. "Mumbly-Bumbly Red-Hot Mage": A Pyro Abyss Mage; interrupt its attacks, then unleash a flurry of attacks.
  4. "Bouncy, Energetic Mage Who’s Actually Freezing Cold": A Cryo Abyss Mage; employ the same strategy as the Pyro Abyss Mage.
  5. "Big Guy Said to be Solid as a Mini Mountain": A Stonehide Lawachurl; attack swiftly, dodging its attacks. A Geo Slime will appear; use a Piercing Strike for significant damage.
