How to Beat Blimp Reaper

Deal with the Other Ghosts First

The Blimp Reaper is accompanied by other ghosts. Luigi has to deal with them first, so he can focus his attention on capturing the Blimp Reaper.

Keep Using the Poltergust on It

Much like the Creeper Launcher, the Blimp Reaper has a lot of HP but does not move much during battles. To deal with it, Luigi just has to keep using the Poltergust on it until it gets captured.

Moreover, while getting vacuumed, the Blimp Reaper will jump into the air, then slam the ground, creating a shockwave that interrupts Luigi for a short time. This does not do any damage but can't be avoided. Luigi just has to continue using the Poltergust on it even when interrupted.

Watch Out for Goo Projectiles

The Blimp Reaper will constantly spit out yellow goo at Luigi while it's engaged in battle. Luigi needs to dodge the projectiles while he's attempting to capture it with the Poltergust.

Keep a Safe Distance

When Luigi gets too close to the Blimp Reaper, it will attack him with its body. Luigi should keep his distance from the Blimp Reaper to avoid triggering its body attack.

Deal with the Creepers First When They Spawn

The Blimp Reaper will also spit out purple goo that turns into small Creepers. When a Creeper spawns, it's best for Luigi to deal with them first before focusing its attention back to the Blimp Reaper. Doing so allows Luigi to vacuum the Blimp Reaper with minimal interruptions.

To deal with these small Creepers, Luigi just has to flash them with the Strobulb, then vacuum them with the Poltergust.
