Dodge and Attack

Astro Bot - Nidhog Remove Band Aids.png
Nidhog follows a predictable pattern: it charges at you, you dodge, and then it pauses. Use this chance to attack its back and remove a band-aid with your axe.

Repeat this three times. Once all the band-aids are gone, a cord will appear. Pull it to launch Nidhog into the glacier.

Destroy All Stone Statues Before Battle

Before engaging Nidhog, destroy the surrounding stone statues.

This ensures Nidhog won't be interrupted mid-charge, making the fight smoother.
