Perfect Uumuu fight?
I'm trying to beat the "new" Uumuu on a certain mode and I must have restarted a hundred times. I've gotten close many times, but I just don't have a reliable way to do it. Right now my strategy is to use Grubberfly to hit the jellyfish from a distance, otherwise the explosion radius can easily catch me. Any other good strategies out there?

Use your soul ability to shoot a jellyfish beside uumuu

I think it's possible to kill Uumuu in 1 cycle if you have full soul by the time Uumuu becomes vulnerable and then spam Vengeful Spirit with Shaman Stone. For that amount of soul it helps to equip Dream Wielder and use the dream nail on Uumuu twice at the beginning of the fight.

Dreamnail huh... I haven't thought of that. Does anyone know if hitting him/her with it give knockback? Otherwise it might be risky.

Its honestly a really good charm for the Uumuu fight, since there isn't really a reliable source of Soul otherwise, and Dreamwielder gives you a TON of Soul.

It does knockback at the beginning of the fight, before Uumuu does any attacks, but seems to stop doing knockback once Uumuu starts attacking. This is probably a bug(haha yes, very funny pun, even though Uumuu isn't an insect, but rather some sort of slime mold).

If you don't have souls, just run around until a jellyfish is aligned with him and hit it, it will fly against him and explode. Repeat and hug the walls near the top for the multiple sparks, it's easier to avoid them

Just finished it on my third try this session, Dream Wielder worked like a charm (don't laugh)
But seriously I was pulling my hair out so thanks.

And yes, Dreamnail does do knockback every time you use it.
