Behavior

Protected by: minions
Jon has 3 Phases. He stays inactive until he takes damage (even from a pet!):

  • Phase 1:
    Birds spawn from four birdcages and circle them, occasionally attacking the player. The boss chases players and occasionally says “Dodge this!” or “Check out AWESOME CANNON CLUSTER!”, after which he fires a 3 bursts of cannonball shots that do massive damage. His other attack is to stop and alternatively fire a ‘gold coin’ that inflicts confuse and a cannonball.
  • Phase 2:
    Once the boss has taken enough damage, he says “Now you’re making me angry! PARROT BARRIER ACTIVATE!” The boss heads to the center of the arena, while the evil water at the perimeter of the room begins to flood the outer edge of the arena. All the birds swarm the boss and protect him. He is invulnerable while the parrots are protecting him and is stun immune. After all parrots are killed, Bilgewater will move to Phase 3. If all parrots are not killed quickly enough, Bilgewater will return to Phase 1.
  • Phase 3:
    A large parrot will spawn and chase players while the other parrots swarm around Bilgewater. While large parrot is alive, Bilgewater is invulnerable and will not take damage. Once the large parrot is killed, the parrots will disperse and the boss will say “YOU’LL PAY FOR KILLING MY PARROTS!” followed by “CANNON BARRAGE!” The boss remains stationary and fires 3 radial shotguns of cannonballs. After a short pause, Bilgewater shoots 3 more shotguns of cannonballs. After the second round of shotguns, the birds will swarm the boss again and the phase repeats.

Throughout the fight, the birds will continually heal the boss for large amounts of health.

Tips and Strategies

General

  • Be careful when entering the boss room when other players have already entered as there is the possibility that the boss may be standing on the player spawn point while attacking, resulting in instant death of your character with little ability to react.
  • The cannonballs are extremely dangerous; do not try to tank them.
  • Beware of the confuse bullets, since they can lead you into his cannonballs.
  • It is possible to take minimal to no damage during the last phase of the fight by remaining still in certain positions of the arena (such as slightly to the left or right of the entry portal) while continuing to attack.

Class Specific

  • Ranged healing classes like the priest and necromancer are also good choices to consider as they can shoot the boss from afar and heal when needed.
  • Huntresses are also useful here because their traps can AoE paralyze (or slow) pretty much all the parrots during circling, paralyze the boss, and of course, pierce.
  • Archers and Huntresses wielding a Doom Bow can solo the boss due to its high damage output and its piercing effect, outweighing the heals that the birds provide.
  • Warriors with max stats can solo the boss on Phase 3 as long as they are cautious of his cannonballs.
  • Piercing weapons (all bows, all katanas cwand and bone dagger) are helpful because the parrot mobs have the potential to block a lot of shots.
  • Classes without piercing weapons may need to approach Bilgewater closely to deal damage (e.g., between first and second shotguns during Phase 3).
  • During the last phase, Knights should equip Omgur or be cautious of stun timing. Because Bilgewater is stun immune while the large parrot is dead and parrots are dispersed, but not stun immune (but invulnerable) when the large parrot is alive and parrots are swarming, it is possible for Bilgewater to shoot “stacked delayed shotguns” that do not have a safe area to dodge if Bilgewater is stunned during the large parrot sub-phase and immediately switches to the cannonball sub-phase.
