real last boss fight, any tips? *** SPOILER ALERT ***

[Hobimania]

soo i managed to fight cthulhu, the problem is he attacked sanity, 2 or 3 each attack and i cant do anything. also i'm curious about the super sphere in laboratory, do i have to built it first?

the straightjacket set blocks all sanity removal, but don't worry about it too much cause damage to cthulu is carried between runs

[Hobimania]

Straight jacket like others said is an absolute must if you want to beat him in one run.

My first attempt was a Dr. Dolittle (Professor raven/rats) run with passive damage like blood/poison. Cthulu only has one move that you have to worry about, and doesn't use it often, so you can buff up their shield, and heal up with Beast master in-between his AOE attack. Just turtle up, amd let the passives do their work as they stack. Since his only real Trump card is massive sanity damage designed to push you put before he takes too much damage, you can pretty much hang out as long as you need with the straight jacket.

I never had a chance to try it out since Cthulu has a limited number of times to fight him in story mode, was a vampire/genji bleed cultists build. I just had a pretty decent run and he was basically invincible after a few rounds he takes almost no damage, and heals incredibly fast. Again, if you also have the straight jacket you will most likely survive the entire fight in one go.

yeah, i just need that straight jacket... i used detective with martial art + evasion + elephant relic. i can go up to 100 blocks in a turn. i surely beat him in one go if i had sanity jacket.

as cultist? Get the card that gives Fearless, and get Prayer. Prayer Cycling might be the most powerful I've ever been in this game. 30+ Dex, 30+ Strength, 8 Fearless, about a billion block from Shell, just insanity. I just got down on my knees and prayed to beings that could apparently evaporate Cthulhu, if they managed to make a hobo like me that powerful.

You aren't supposed to kill him in one go, it tells you in the fight he is too powerful to die in one go(but im sure someone will figure out a build that can do it if they havent already) on my first time fighting him it took 3 runs to kill him.

The cultist has an infinite 2-card combo I was able to pull off. Not sure if other classes have it.

1) The card that does Xdmg + Draw 2 cards.
2) Card: Reduce the cost of X Cards by 1.

That;s all you really need.
- Reduce the size of your deck.
- Get the 2 cards in your hand.
- Reduce the damage+draw 2 cards in your hand to ZERO.
- Play the card, get the card deal, 5-8 damage... repeat until all is dead.

For extra, there is the ring that is like, "When you shuffle get 1 energy." But anything that lets you draw your deck into your hand is the key to this.

Hope that helps. Cthulu kill on turn 1.
