MegaBonk Anubis Boss Guide (Desert Boss)
Anubis is the desert boss in MegaBonk, and he’s infamous for his laser spam and AoE combos. The desert’s open layout makes it harder since cover is inconsistent, so you need to rely on movement, lifesteal, and smart positioning. With the right strategy, Anubis goes from frustrating to beatable.
Anubis Attack Patterns
Red Laser Beam – Locks on and sweeps. Its rotation speed is slow, so getting close or circling him makes it easier to dodge.
Ground AoE Rock Attack – While the laser tracks you, Anubis often drops targeted ground explosions. These punish you for standing still.
Blue Laser Arrays – Spread attacks that cover wide areas. They’re easier to dodge if you stay farther away and jump the beams.
Multiple Anubis spawns in cursed desert runs overlap these attacks, which makes the fight chaotic and punishing.
Best Builds Against Anubis
Projectile Weapons – Keep distance while consistently chipping him down. Revolver, Bow, and Lightning Staff excel here.
Lifesteal/HP Sustain – Regeneration and lifesteal items let you recover while dealing with his chip damage.
Movement Speed Buffs – Agility Tome and speed items help you outrun lasers and reposition against overlapping attacks.
AoE Support – Aura or Bone help clear adds while you focus on dodging.
Strategy Tips
Circle the laser’s origin point instead of running straight. The beam struggles to keep up with tight loops.
Use cactus and map objects as cover when possible, but don’t rely on them since desert layouts vary.
Jump over blue laser arrays to reduce damage pressure.
Stay aggressive. The longer the fight drags on, the harder it gets with overlapping patterns.
Final Blurb
Anubis is one of MegaBonk’s tougher bosses because his kit forces constant movement. His lasers and AoEs combine to punish slow builds, but with movement speed, lifesteal, and ranged weapons, he becomes manageable. Master his patterns and the desert curse runs will feel much less brutal.
FAQ
What is the best way to dodge Anubis’s red laser?
Get close or circle him. The beam rotates too slowly to track tight loops.
Can cover block Anubis’s lasers?
Yes, cactus and other terrain can block the beam, but desert layouts don’t always guarantee reliable cover.
How do you deal with multiple Anubis bosses?
Stack movement speed and sustain. Overlapping lasers and AoEs make the fight overwhelming without mobility and healing.
