How do I kill big skelly ball?

There's apparently a way of doing it super fast...for some weird reason I used Peppino (or whatever that tree is called), upgraded quite a bit, movement included, and slowly made my way down to the ball and blocked it for a few minutes. xD

Lots and lots of persistence. I usually find it easier to come down there when I have a few different weapons at varying levels. The ball will be bigger, sure, but then I just barrage it constantly while casually walking away from it. The two guns that shoot red and blue balls respectfully are especially helpful when the ball is big enough so you can hit it with both angles.

My build included the holy bible evo. I think constant dps and stagger like that helps keep the ball from escaping from you. I think leda would give you the easiest time with this

Something like Leda or Marrabbio can just be able to run down and deal with the ball immediately before early spawns. Takes a while to die but will eventually go down.

The ball also won't gain strength unless you go near it due to lack of nearby spawns so you could try avoiding it until you're completely tricked up then run down and fight it.

The easiest way to kill it is to go and fight it immediately. Using one of the hidden characters who start with an evolved weapon can make it easier.

The skull ball gets more health the more enemies it touches/absorbs. It will not absorb an enemy if it is off screen. Try to get a lot of damage items first before challenging it, otherwise it will just absorbs enemies and gain more health. Using evolved daggers, bible, santa water help, while others might just miss the ball or do not deal enough damage in time. naturally, you also would want to have 0 curse.

i waited to get at least one evolved weapon and than went for it. he was very small when i got there so it probably died in close to a minute

Use Red Death with daggers and bibles.

[Porygus-z]

If I'm remembering correctly I just used Clerici and bought all of the items from the merchant.
Then I just kinda stood under the thing and occasionally walked around it to kill the other smaller guys.
Oh, and use the gamekiller arcana.
As long as you don't let the smaller skeletons get to it it's a guaranteed win. It just takes a few minutes.

My strategy was using Red Death for speed, followed by manually limiting him to only one weapon, using the Arcana Silent Old Sanctuary (XX) and finally getting passives Empty Tome, Spinach, and Candelabrador. With Empty Tome maxed out you will constantly shoot out scythes and the Arcana will let you deal damage in the hundreds, you basically win almost instantly.

Limit your weapons to 2, use silent old sanctuary, get the knife guy (don't remember name), get the bible as well, evolve both, spinach, book, and if you can get the arcanas card that makes bibles explode.

The evolved forms of Clock Lancet and Laurel also work well.

When it gets very large, its hitbox doesn't match its sprite and it gets very difficult to get hits in without taking damage.

Don't quote me on this, but I think enabling Hyper mode might make this fight way harder. The first time I tried it I was playing with Hyper enabled and I ended up in a stalemate where it grew/healed at least as fast as I could damage it. The super fast enemies were smashing into it too fast for me to stop them all.

When I tried again without Hyper mode, it was much easier to keep him small and outpace his growth with my damage.

[Elvick]

Holy Water upgraded with as much cooldown as possible basically makes it stuck in place. Then you can choose whatever else you want. I'd suggest just building like you do to defeat Death it's really not that hard just need to outpace any enemies it rolls over. Which is pretty easy with a build that can kill death since that decreases their defense.

You're not wrong at all. I forgot to mention that in my response but there's absolutely no way I would've managed it without turning hyper mode off.
At a certain point a ridiculous amount of enemies spawn (because naturally this thing has a ton of hp and takes a few minutes to kill) and that feeds into the time to kill if it absorbs them. You'd have to get super sweaty to manage that in hyper mode and therefore it's best to kill this thing in normal mode.
I'd consider turning off hyper essential to defeating it if only for the sake of easily managing the total hp.
