How to Beat Cranioc

Strategy

Craniocs are dangerous underwater shark-like enemies first found in Lake Floria.

As they are underwater, you need to use your underwater combat abilities (such as spin attack) to defeat them.

Avoid Rush when Cranioc turns red

When Cranioc is approached, it will turn red and charge at you with Rush. Avoid this by swimming away from its path.

Use Spin attack while stunned

Crash Craniocs to walls or debris when they are rushing towards you. This will stun them and enable you to use your underwater spin attack by pressing your L-Stick.
