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

A cave-dwelling monster that clings to ceilings and drops on unsuspecting travelers. Horrible, ungainly, and surprisingly tough, Horribleins carry rocks, gems, and sometimes weapons that they hurl from above before descending. Their ceiling-mounted advantage makes them dangerous in low-ceilinged cave corridors. Arrows and upward melee attacks while they descend are the most effective counters.

Weakness

Ranged attacks while on ceiling, fire arrows

How to Beat Horriblin

Hangs from cave ceilings and drops down to attack. Shoot with arrows while they cling to the ceiling for easy damage. When they drop down, dodge their sweeping arm attacks. Fire arrows force them off ceilings.
