Amdusia Boss Guide — Cult of the Lamb

Amdusia is the first boss of Cult of the Lamb and is encountered in the Darkwood. While Amdusia is not overly difficult, you may not be used to the game's controls and have some issues taking this boss down.

Amdusia has two primary attacks: a slow dash and firing projectiles. You want to wait for him to dash attack, then go in and strike three times. Don't get greedy and go for more, as you may get clipped and take damage yourself. Be ready to dodge if you linger too close for too long or find yourself in the path of his projectiles. Repeat this until you have defeated Amdusia.
