How To Beat Forsaken Giant In Once Human

The Forsaken Giant is a multi-phased boss with its difficulty increasing with each phase. The Giant has specific glowing weak points that need to be targeted. However, these points keep changing throughout the different phases. You need to be resourceful with your ammo and conserve it till the last phase. If you see the Giant shedding tears at any phase, make sure to collect them, this will stun the creature for a certain time, leaving you an opening for attack.

Phase 1

Initially, the Giant’s left biceps head will be glowing red along with other areas on its body. Take a safe position, preferably the corner of the arena before you initiate your first attack. The Giant will not attack you until you make the first move. You need to target these initial weak points. However, be mindful that there is a limit to the damage you can inflict on a single weak spot. Once you have exceeded this limit, the spot will stop glowing.

The Forsaken Giant’s attack pattern in this round includes a combination of sweeping attacks, stomping, projectile launches, and hand slams.

Phase 2

As the fight progresses, new weak spots will appear on the Giant (left or right palm). Naturally, you now need to focus on these spots with a weapon with a high fire rate. However, you need to dodge the Hand Slam first. The boss’ attacks will grow more frequent and aggressive in this phase. So, you have to stay alert and ready to dodge at all times. To kick the difficulty up a notch, Forsaken Giant will now summon smaller enemies called elites. You need to eliminate these creatures immediately, or else they will disrupt your focus from the boss.

Phase 3

This phase marks yet more intensified attacks and creature spawns including the appearance of a powerful enemy, Arbiter. You need to prioritize your focus on Arbiter because the Forsaken Giant will be inflicting yet more powerful attacks on you. So, you need to take care of the Arbiter first. Dodge attacks and position yourself strategically to avoid heavy damage from both these enemies. For this, you can use your game environment as cover.

Mobility and ammo management are more crucial than ever in this phase. Once you have eliminated the Arbiters, you have to aggressively target the Giant’s weak points which may rotate between the stomach, head, and palms.
