Path of Exile 2 - How to Beat The Brambleghast

During the fight, The Brambleghast will summon vine tentacles that will automatically slam itself against the player. Players can destroy these tentacles to get leeway to move and dodge during the fight and help avoid stacking up damage.

Avoid Chaos Blasts

One of Brambleghast's most lethal attacks is when it summons branches to throw two chaos orbs that explode upon hitting the ground. To avoid getting damaged by these orbs, dodge toward Brambleghast's back.

List of All Moves

Moves Details and Tips
Orb Projectiles
The Brambleghast produces an orb, which then shoots out projectiles in every direction.
How to Dodge: Dodge through incoming projectiles or position yourself far enough to fit in between the projectiles.
Summon Vines
The Brambleghast slams into the ground, spawning several vines that attack you.
How to Dodge: Keep moving until the vines eventually despawn.
Vine AoE Slam
The Brambleghast summons a long vine connected to a large, spiked orb, which slams down and deals AoE damage.
How to Dodge: Dodge as far away as you can once you see the boss slam into the ground, as this attack can nearly one-shot most players without the proper resistances.
Vine Projectiles
The Brambleghast summons several vines that release orbs that slowly move toward you.
How to Dodge: Since the animation for the attack and the orbs themselves move slowly, position yourself out of its trajectory once the orbs have been released.
Creeping Roots
The Brambleghast reaches forward, and several thick roots creep forward, dealing damage to anything it hits .
How to Dodge: Dodge to the side or position yourself behind it. Its arm gets stuck after doing this move, so use this window to attack.
Default Attack
A series of melee swings that deal damage in front of it.
How to Dodge: Keep moving, and use whatever ranged attack you have to deal damage to it.
