Boss Rush Tips

Boss Rush elevates the challenge compared to the main campaign, particularly the final two bosses.

If you’re struggling:

• Finish upgrading the remaining skill trees first.
• Practice parrying since many late-game attacks are easier to counter than to dodge.
• Equip the Stick (Parasaurolophus) passive if you need extra help during tough fights.
