Description: Hideous hulk that once prowled the passage of the Hexagon, preying on travellers. The earth shakes with its every step.
Its diet consists mainly of rocks and boulders, and it loves dark places, so the Hexagon made a marvellous home. | |||||

The Hexagon - B1 |
The Hero encounters the Hexagoon at the Hexagon, where it serves as the first boss.
Due to its lack of a versatile moveset, low hp, and low attack, it is arguably the easiest boss in the game. The Hero simply needs to attack it with basic attacks, and then use Heal when necessary.
For a quick battle, acquiring the Leather Shield and Feather Fan from the chests inside the dungeon will help. Aim to at least reach level 4, and use Heal, or medicinal herbs, to maintain hp. If you are willing to grind to level 8, the Hero will learn Crack, which will make the boss incredibly weak. To speed up farming, aim for the Firespirit monsters, which spawn in this dungeon.
