Mutated Odur

Mutated Odur is the third boss in Thymesia. It is an optional boss in the Sea of Trees and the final boss of that area, but it can still be considered as the third boss of the game. Odur, having injected himself with a large amount of Vile Blood, has been mutated through the interactions between both Pure and Vile Blood.
__TOC__
== Behavior ==
Odur's mutation grants him a set of tentacles that he'll use in his assaults. His main attacks involve a mixture of tentacle swipes and stabs from his saber. They give him a lot of reach and may be very difficult to dodge away. If he winds his tentacles back, he's charging a burst of wind centred on him, but the long wind-up gives you plenty of time to get away.
If you keep your distance, he'll either use a four-hit combo by lashing out with his tentacles, or use his tentacles to flip into the air for a long-range Critical attack. Sometimes he'll close the gap by flipping towards you before crashing down.
Due to the great range of his attacks, keeping distance from him can prove to be challenging, but a parry-based combat style can push past a lot of his melee strikes. Your choice of Long or Short Claw depends on how wide a berth you intend to give him. If you're keeping range, you can use his signature weapon against him — Predator's Claw Lv2 can snag his Mutated Tentacles for your use, and you can zip away using Long Dodge Lv1 then assault him with the tentacles before dashing in for another reave.
Mutated Odur only has one health bar unlike his previous form, but he's a formidable foe regardless.
== Rewards ==
Defeating him will get the player 6400 Memory Shards, Mutated Odur's Core, an Alchemy Enhancer, and a Forgotten Feather. It will also drop some Mutated Tentacles Skill Shards.
