If you are anticipating the battle with the third Valheim Bonemass Boss, you don’t need to fret! There is no doubt in the fact that this battle is immensely challenging; however, it is possible to beat the Bonemass by following this comprehensive guide.
What is the third Valheim Bonemass Boss like?
The reason the third Valheim Boss appears undefeatable has a lot to do with his daunting physical appearance. He is twice the size of an average man. His silhouette is similar to the fictional character, Hulk; however, he is quite a disgusting version with his giant blob-like body oozing nasty green fluids. It is advisable to stay on your toes around the Boss if you intend to bring him down.
Locating the third Valheim Bonemass Boss
The Bonemass Boss can be located in the Swamp environment. If a player wants to embark on the journey to seek the Bonemass, they are required to locate their first Swamp. Now, this is quite a precarious task since the Swamp is full of risky and dangerous hindrances. To ensure Swamp biome survival, you must be equipped with maximum upgraded Bronze weapons and abundant food supplies.
Another convenient method to locate the Bonemass is to seek the Runestone. The Runestone highlights the location of the Bonemass Boss on the map. It is important to remember that before seeking the Runestone in order to locate the Bonemass, the player must focus on the location of Boss’ spawner first. The spawner of the Bonemass is a massive skull that is relatively easy to locate while running about the Swamp.
Battle Preparation to defeat the Bonemass Boss
If you have defeated the previous Valheim bosses, you will be rather surprised to find out that the third Valheim boss is significantly difficult to win against, comparatively. The key to killing this almost-undefeatable Boss is adequate battle preparation. If the player is equipped with all of the required weapons, tools, and supplies, only then is it possible to beat the Bonemass. Otherwise, the player will end up dying, and the Valheim boss will continue to haunt the Swamp for eternity.
The following procedure is going to assist you in the battle preparation and ultimately the defeat of the third Valheim Bonemass Boss.
Finding the Skull Spawner
This is an important step in the process because you cannot defeat the Bonemass unless you find the spawner along with the runestone to figure out the exact route to his habitat.
Building a storage camp
A smart way to store all your supplies and secure a great respawn location (if the player fails to defeat the Boss and dies) is to build a storage camp near the spawner location. To build the camp, the player must collect at least two carts full of stones. This step must not be overlooked because it is very important for the player to have a safe work camp.
Making major adjustments to the battleground
This is another significant step that you must not oversee while preparing for the battle. It would help if you cleared the area where the action will take place. A smoother and flatter ground will ensure a smooth competition. It will also minimize the player’s chances of underperforming because they accidentally bumped into a rock or a tree.
It is advisable to remove all the small bumps and hurdles before you take on the Bonemass. Larger trees cannot be destroyed by the player or even the Boss. This is actually a plus for the player because massive trees in the battleground can serve as ideal hiding spots.
Building a house
Constructing a respawn house with enough beds is also an essential step.
Making Frost Arrows
It would be best if you had a weapon to attack the Boss. For this purpose, you need to go to the Mountains and fight against the Drakes (Dragons). Their attacks are easy to avoid and fight against. You need to collect the Freeze Glands of the Drakes to make the arrows. It is best to gather 5 or 6 glands to produce enough arrows.
Construct a wall around the Bonemass spawner
It is essential to construct a border around the spawn location of the Bonemass.
Making blunt maces or a Warhammer
Since the Bonemass is a blob, it can be harmed by using blunt weapons instead of swords or anything sharp.
Making meads
You need three different meads. One of the meads is supposed to protect you from the poison attacks of the Bonemass. It is a safer option to carry two or three such meads for each of the players. To conserve your health against the Boss’s merciless blows, you also need to take sufficient health meads. You must also be equipped with an adequate amount of Tasty Mead to increase your stamina during the battle.
How to call upon the Bonemass?
Now that the battle preparations are complete, the next step is to summon the Boss. You need to conduct a thorough search for 10 Withered Bones in the treasure chests, muddy piles, or some other locations within the Sunken Crypts. The bones must be placed inside the spawner skull to call upon the Bonemass.
The Bonemass Boss Fight
As soon as you hear metal music playing and watch the fusion of power balls, you must know that the time has come. The Bonemass has been summoned. Initially, it would help if you stood a considerable distance away from the Bonemass spawn location.
The Bonemass Boss attacks in three different ways. In the first attack method, he swings his giant arm to hit the player. The player must retaliate by either saving himself from the blow or by blocking the attack. The second attack involves the Bonemass grabbing a chunk of his massive body and flinging it toward the player. The piece of his body falls on the ground and transforms into skeletons that begin to attack the player.
In some cases, this attack does not work, and the blob piece does not transform into anything at all. If you are facing this attack, you need to quickly destroy the skeletons and then focus on striking the Boss. The third attack used by the Boss is to create a poisonous cloud around his body. The player must avoid entering that specific area.
In single-player mode, it is best to strike down the Boss using Frost Arrows from a safe distance. If you keep on missing the Boss’s arm-swing attack and shooting arrows at him and the skeletons from a distance, you will eventually succeed at defeating the Boss!
