Behavior

Attacks

Attack	Description	How to avoid
Consecutive Ground Slam	The Gorilla King slams the ground several times (similar to the Yeti), dealing AoE damage and stuns the targets.	Don't get too close. Jump and consistently walk/dash around to avoid his moves and punches.

Notes

• Elemental does not come into effect as he is a Boss and has Aura.

Tips & Tricks

• With 950 HP and 27.7 dmg per hit, The Gorilla King makes it difficult for newer players to fight without a Blox Fruit. One method for defeating The Gorilla King is to trap him on the grass-wedge to the right of where he spawns. The player can then simply assault him till he dies, but otherwise avoid his strikes because he can deliver 27.7 damage with a single punch.
• Another method for defeating The Gorilla King is to try the "Hit and run" technique. The player needs to dodge into the boss, land a hit, and dodge away before the boss reacts. This is hard to master but if perfected, will be very useful in later boss fights. (Note: the player will need a good amount of energy to be able to dodge consistently)
• Players with low health points should be extremely wary of the AoE ground smash strike, which can kill them in a second. His ground smash stuns and does 12.3 damage every hit, for a total of 73.8 damage, which is about 3/4 of a beginner player's HP.

Trivia

• This is the lowest level enemy to have Aura on.
• This is the first boss to be encountered in the game.
  • Likewise, it is also the first enemy to possess the Consecutive Ground Slam ability, which is used by many other bosses and enemies, scattered across the seas.
