Sulong
- Where
- Vegetation Cave (~17.5m, left side of the lake; dive at sunset)
- Weak spots
- Head; Underbelly
- Rewards
- Harvest Sulong meat (sells high; unlock the Sulong dish via the restaurant research tab first).
- Notes
- First major DLC boss. The bone-structure traps are the core mechanic โ don't build your plan around the stick.
Recommended setup
- Jungle Gun upgraded to Level 3+ (shotgun or rifle mode)
- Utara Power Booster (item slot 1 โ essential for dodging charges)
- Air Pouch or Ammo Box (item slot 2)
Attack patterns
- Lunge bite โ charges forward and snaps; swim above or below the path.
- Crescent tail slash โ wide tail arc if you drift behind/below; keep distance.
- Body slam โ rears up and crashes down; the attack you want to bait near a bone structure.
- Enrage charge (low HP) โ stomps to telegraph direction, then dashes; move out of the lane before launch.
Strategy
- Stand near one of the two large bone structures on the cave floor and bait a charge.
- Dodge sideways at the last moment with the Utara Power Booster โ Sulong can't change direction mid-charge and gets stuck.
- While trapped, his underbelly is fully exposed โ unload shotgun/rifle into it.
- Each bone structure works once (two free trap windows total); a supply pickup drops the first time he's trapped.
- After both traps are gone, use the Power Booster to stay mobile and keep getting under him to hit the underbelly.
- Optional: jam a cave-floor stick into his open jaw during the lunge to stun him โ unreliable, only grab one if you're already nearby.
