Jormungand!!!

[Aesthetica Purple]

Holy ♥♥♥♥, what IS this boss? This is ridiculuos! It's like, near impossible to tell the timings of ANY of his moves, and his freaking hitbox is so sheltered it's IMPOSSIBLE to hit without taking damage yourself! Who thought this was a good idea?!

[Halfshell]

Is it really 4th boss? Pretty sure 4th and 5th are interchangable. Thats why theres two entrances to Dark Lord. And you can always do Chaos or Underworld 4th no problem. Its not even a sequence break, just don't need anything from 4th to do them.

I'm actually fine with this form. Snake monsters are boring. This complete deviation from mythology, was a GOOD joke. Except for the neckbreaking pace of the fight, this was probably my favourite boss.

Okay, I’ve been holding my tongue for a lot of this. But this? This is where I draw the line. Anything reptilian-even if it’s not technically a living thing, and it’s just a robot or something-is WAY cooler then some lame ol’ human. Plus, I dunno, they could’ve... not named it after something that was famously a giant snake, if they were just going to remake Palenque’s fight? It honestly just came off as reaching, like they realized they didn’t have anything to base their 2nd Palenque off of, so they found a random name from Norse mythology that they hadn’t used and threw a snake head on the mech to justify it.

Do you guys realize that you can bring a weapon fairy to basically any boss fight (withstanding Sutr possibly) and completely shred the boss? Jormy is basically dead before the fight even begins. It's cheap, so I don't recommend using it. But if you're at the point where you're buying bullets to shoot this dude, just save yourself the trouble and have kara chop his d*ck off.

well if you don't mind to get the hammer then you can skip this boss, but i prefer not do that because the randomness of the game about when to increase it dificulty, i prefer to kill it as fast as i could hahaha

well some of us already know that but some boss get soft lock when you kill it to fast, i read that you can delay the fairy though i don't know it's right or not. i just using earth spear and gun to make it faster, summoning atk fairy is not too helpfull to me cause it can just atk the boss projectile instead of the boss

[Tech Damage]

flares, katana, healing fairy or blue fairy. get up under him when he is on the far left (where his feet are danglin off the bike) and go ham. btw u gonna get hit alot anyways.

The most reported bug in the entire game, is that bringing a weapon fairy to fight Jormungand, will make the fairy kill Jormundgand before the battle even starts, thereby softlocking the game.

[Schokio]

imo, one of the best bosses; he has clear patterns and they are reaaaally easy to dodge; better tell me how to do Anu LUL

[KoleCarmot]

He repeats his pattern with no change. It was difficult but I was able to beat him.
Use the Earth Spears when he is in front of you (You can also go past his gun and melee him without threat of being shot)
If you feel comfortable enough, when he zooms past you and then jump back over you, you can also nail him twice with the flare gun. Finally if your daring enough, Caltrops can be used as well while he is behind you.

put bullet on his head simple and easy(from this point on you could farming gold with treasure fairy and buy those ammo lol) i don't belive that there is a single boss in this game that can tank 18 bullet from your mighty gun hahaha...

Are you sure about that? ...because caltrops don't move backwards in this fight, and the wheels of Yormungandr seem like a nohit zone anyway. ...but maybe you don't mean throwing them on the GROUND.

Yeah, not on the ground. I was jumping and hitting him directly with them, but I kept getting hit when he started his dash.

[RustyRed]

Once you figure out where Jormungand stops for it's pistol attack you can easily deal solid damage to it safely. Just avoid it's other attacks and it's rams.

I managed to beat Jormungand with just the katana, no sub-weapons ;3

[Hobbs]

I thought that Jormungand was easier than Vritra '-'... and I tried it without sub weapons, on hard.
Before anyone yells at me, I just wanna say that his leg is vulnerable to the Katana (and probably all whips, as they hit to the back) while stationary to your left, shooting either his pistol or shotgun - and his max shooting angle makes you impossible to hit if you position yourself right. You just need to dodge his pattern for 2~3 cicles. His hardest attack to jump over (when he comes from out of the screen, from left to right) gets kinda easy with headphones, as you jump pretty much as soon as he goes "vroom, vroom!". Just my 5 cents.

edit: Pretty much what Superscope said.

[zaku_zelo]

The problem is it's just too hard to jump over him, especially when he's not dashing and just casually moving across the screen. Because his sprite is so huge, you move so slow, and because your I-frames on getting hit are so short, one missed-timed jump usually means landing inside him and getting hit another half-dozen times. It's way, way, WAY too punishing.
Feels awful too. This boss is covered in guns and rockets and the most dangerous move he's got is too just slowly back up across the screen. That's not right at all.
