The Bramble Ram
A charging mid-boss behind bark plates. Its bark shrugs off weapon fire. Loop it.
Tip
Dodge the charge, then loop it to crack a plate. Its bramble walls cut your trail.
Bark
While a plate stands, everything but a loop’s flare deals only a trickle: weapons, charms and trail burn together, saved up for a few seconds at most. Each loop cracks a plate and hits it hard.
Everything but flares: at most 2% of max HP a second · saved up to 4 s
Plates 3 · Loop hit at most 30% of max HP · Reel 4 s
After a loop’s hit a boss reels: no other loop can hurt it until the reel is over.
Gardening, but violent.
