Slugvogg is quite tanky, but otherwise his attack style remains the same as other Verbeegs - slow movements but heavy damage. He will have a few new abilities to look out for.
Slugvogg Attacks and Abilities
Spear Thrust
Slugvogg points and thrusts his spear in your direction. Dodge to the side.
Spear Hook
Slugvogg throws his spear at you if you're far away. If caught, you'll get dragged to him. You can telegraph when he'll do this since he'll be outlined red. Dodge to the side to avoid this.
Spear Sweep
Slugvogg clears the area in front of him with his spear twice. He'll be winding back his arm and outlined red when he's about to do this, so just dodge out of the way.
Ground Pound
Slugvogg lifts his arm up then pushes it down to the ground, causing AoE damage. Dodge in any direction away from him.
Leap Forward
Slugvogg covers a lot of ground by leaping forward and trying to slam his fist down on you. Dodge backwards when you see him start to lean back.

Kill Minions First
There will be gobilins in the combat area when you enter. Clear them out before engaging Slugvogg so that your combos aren't interrupted.
Quick Evades
As with other Verbeegs, quick movements and dodges are important in this fight. Your primary strategy will be to get a couple hits in then dodge away when he's about to do any attack. Repeat this and you should win easily. Blocking won't be too useful here.
Use Explosive Barrels
There's a few explosive barrels in the area you can use to damage Slugvogg. He has sluggish movements so he won't be able to get out of the barrels' damage AoE.
Knock Slugvugg Down
Like with other Bosses, Slugvogg will get Exhausted after using several moves. At that point, you can knock him down with a Fierce Attack and you can get a couple free hits in. Hit him from behind to get a critical strike.
