Attacks
| Attack | Power | Element | Status ailment |
|---|---|---|---|
| Contact | 150 | Holy | — |
| Pounce Used while gray (its starting state). The pounce distance depends on Nathan's position: when Nathan is on the ground it only hops forward a little; when he is in the air or on an upper platform it leaps high to pounce on him. Stay on the ground some distance away and it won't reach you. | 150 | Holy | — |
| Lightning Ball Used while blue: lightning falls in front of and behind it while its body stays still. Keep some distance to avoid the bolts, then look for an opening to attack. | 200 | Thunder | — |
| Laser Used while red. It first jumps under a distant platform, then up onto it, sweeping a laser forward from bottom to top. When it turns red, back off a little and crouch to avoid the first jump, then run under the platform it's on as fast as you can to hide from the laser. | 220 | Fire | — |

Strategy
- Recommended sub-weapons: Holy Water or Axe, though getting the Holy Water takes a detour.
- Recommended DSS: Fire Whip for more damage.
- Attack pattern: it opens with Pounce, then uses Lightning Ball and Laser in random order so all three have been used; after that it picks randomly from anything except the attack it just used.
- Each attack has its own body color: gray is Pounce (it starts gray), blue is Lightning Ball, red is Laser. Check the color before deciding whether to attack or dodge.
- One Holy Water at a time is enough; throwing several at once doesn't increase damage.
- During the laser you can keep throwing axes from below it.
