Balerions Roar

Boss Name: Goliath

Boss Level: Lvl. 900

Boss health: 2100 hp

Description: Goliath is considered in the top three hardest bosses to kill. Don't let the dungeon's level of 135 fool you, this boss is still deadly to players level 200+. Goliath has two abilities. Ice trap, whenever the player stops moving or starts running in a straight line, Goliath will trap them in a cage of ice leaving the player vulnerable to melee hits and projectiles for around 5 seconds. Homing projectiles, this ability consists of target seeking ice projectiles that will follow the player for around 30 seconds. The problem is that he uses this ability about every 10 seconds which means that the more you run around the room, the more projectiles will accumulate. These projectiles are the main issue with this boss since: 1. they HURT 2. they freeze the player in place for one second, which is long enough for Goliath to use his ice cage ability if you don't start running immediately after that one second. Since these projectiles stack, it is possible to get hit for 8 full hearts in one go (damage for obsidian armor). Goliath runs slightly slower than normal while his melee attacks do moderate damage and will knock you back multiple blocks. The boss room is a ice half-dome with no other mobs spawning inside (thank god).

Tips: Unless if you have high-healing food items, I would recommend not soloing this boss. As careful as you can be, if he traps you in his ice cage, chances are you won't be able to run from the ice projectiles... and you will die. The main tip I can provide however is to bring a sword that does small kb (god sword, dark spectre, etc...) and a hammer that does a lot of knockback (tectonic hammer, seismic hammer, etc...). The knockback those weapons give will let you push him away when you are caged, making sure he doesn't melee hit you. Unfortunately, the main way to get those knockback hammers is by killing Goliath... making this a awkward situation unless if you can get your hands on one of them through the market. Finally, try to stay away from the outer circle of the boss room. His ice cage ability can throw you in the wall and cause you to suffocate with no way out other than logging off.
