Preferred style:
Any
- Gigapede really only has 2 forms of
attacks – purple orbs that
come after you in pairs, and a tall horizontal or vertical blue beam
that'll hit you only if
you are on ground level.
- You start the battle on a ledge facing
Gigapede right below you, so jump right
on it and start slashing it as much as
you can.
- Shooting is good only when you can't
reach him at all, but it damages very
little, so be patient and persistent.
- One safe and fast-enough way to kill
this dude is to get on top of him, preferably
right on its head. Then, slash like
mad. Sometimes, he'll
flip around so that you fall off him,
but keep slashing and shooting anyway.
Another way would
be to use a full Release with Royalguard (with all 3 circles to the left of
the life bar filled). Fill it up by
guarding enemy attacks before this battle, or even the hand from cursed doors.
Release normally at it and it should already take away
a third of its life (normal mode).
- Watch out for the purple orbs. They're avoidable but timing
is important so keep rolling and/or double
jumping away. Depending on where the orbs
come from, hiding behind the walls/pillars may
also work. It is also possible to
deflect these orbs back at Gigapede
using melee attacks (preferably multi-hit ones like Cerberus), inflicting good damage.
- For players replaying this battle:
If you have LV 3 Royalguard,
use Ultimate to block the purple orbs (and
gain some life back). Make sure you
don't get sandwiched between the orbs and stand where they will
come at you only from one direction.
Also, if you have acquired Agni & Rudra,
use them. They damage more and faster than Royalguard's Release.
However, the official guide does say that Gigapede is weak against ice...
