Grand Slime/Tactics

== Boss Attacks ==
=== Normal Phase ===
* Slams the ground twice, releasing clusters of red bullets in random directions, they each travel at random speeds. The bullets deal 3 damage each.
* Shoots 4 rings of bullets in a quick succession. These bullets will travel 10 tiles then linger, gradually forming a flower shape of bullets. These bullets deal 2 damage each.
* Spawns a Slime on its position.
* Slams the ground, leaving a green Poison pool (the poison damage can be nullified with Poison Buff) and multiple bullets that linger and deal 3 damage each.
=== Enraged Phase ===
* After the boss gets hit 15 times, the charge bar will fill up, and it will create an explosion on its current position. The boss will also explode once right after being enraged.
** The explosion will still happen even when frozen.
* The bullets of diamond shapes deal 5 damage each instead of 3.
* After being defeated, the boss itself will shrink, explode 7 times and spawn 5 Slimes, once per explosion after the first two explosions.
== Tips ==
To make the fight easier, it is highly recommended that the player brings a melee weapon, so that they can destroy any bullets from the boss and Slimes. Remember to keep maximal distance from the boss, since it can deal damage upon contact, especially when enraged. 
Some helpful buffs include the Trap Buff, which will neutralize the contact damage of Slimes and help to focus on the boss. The Fire Buff and Poison Buff also assist greatly, as Grand Slime utilizes attacks that can be countered by both buffs.
Grand Slime's explosion attack is a hazard to watch out for, as it can wipe out players, Pets, & Followers who get too close to it. This is especially true for Followers (mercenaries, certain unlocked characters, & skill summons) without ranged options. This attack also ignores Freeze.
This boss has quite a bit of health, so killing the Slimes for energy is recommended. The player can also use a melee weapon and the Reflect Buff to return its attacks. A well-timed shockwave will inflict massive damage to the boss. Weapons with rather high energy cost are not a big issue, as the small Slime will give back some.
== Trivia ==
* This is the only boss to have both Boost and Slow tiles in its boss room.
