Forspoken Susurrus final boss and endings guide – Phase 2
Let’s discuss second phase of the Susurrus final boss fight in Forspoken.
Cuff Susurrus Phase 2
Phase 2 of the Susurrus final boss encounter in Forspoken has you fighting his “bird ball” form. You’ll also gain a new spell called Skip (i.e., press the “G” key). It temporarily turns Frey incorporeal, letting you maneuver her while avoiding all damage. Likewise, Frey’s damage and recharge are boosted for this fight. You’ll want to watch out for the following:
- Holy Fire – Sends out dozens of fireballs that can be avoided.
- Stalagmite Smash – A small section of the ground will shake, and a stalagmite will erupt.
- Doom Quake – If you see the entire arena glowing, it’s time to use your grapple to reach a rooftop. The ground will quake and multiple explosions will occur.
- Supernova – When your opponent is charging up, hide behind the obelisk to avoid damage.
- Mirror Image – After damaging the boss for a bit, he’ll create multiple copies (more on this ability below).
- Beast Summon – At intervals (i.e., after defeating a Mirror Image), several enemy mobs will spawn.
Your best bet when dealing damage to your opponent is by using ranged spells (i.e., Shot, Bolt, or Blast Slice). Another suggestion would be to use a spell that stays on-field for a prolonged period (i.e., Water – Maelstrom), since you can pop it underneath the boss to cause several instances of damage.
Moreover, one moment you’ll want to be wary off later in the fight is the Supernova when all three duplicates are alive. If you’re out in the open, you can use Skip to negate damage while moving to the bottom of the temple steps. The building would completely block the beams. In any case, after taking out the last bird ball, it’s time to head to phase 3 of this fight.
