Maren's Tip
Every enemy type has a weakness. Fire enemies melt with ice, ice enemies with fire. Gibdos are vulnerable to fire and lightning — stock those arrows!
Description
Gold Boss Horriblin is the highest-tier Boss Horriblin, appearing exclusively in post-endgame Depths cave systems. It coordinates waves of Gold Horriblin pups as a stalling tactic while it repositions on the ceiling. The Diamond drop makes it a high-value farming target.

How to Beat Gold Boss Horriblin
Gold Boss Horriblin hangs from the ceiling and summons Gold Horriblin pups in waves of 4. Clearing pups before engaging is more important here than with Silver Horriblin due to pup density. Bomb Arrow directly at its face while dangling triggers a 5-second drop.
