Phase One: Backstab When He Slows Down

Light Weapons or Spear Builds Are Ideal

Fast builds like the Acid Crystal Spear are very effective. During phase one, Lumacchio often leaves himself open. Wait for him to pause after an attack, then roll behind him for a clean backstab opportunity.

He has a red glowing charge attack that can be parried easily. After doing so, follow up with another backstab to deal solid damage.

When he lifts his umbrella high, it’s time to circle around and strike again.

Use Shot Puts When His HP Flashes

Once his health bar begins flashing white, retreat slightly and throw a Shot Put. It delivers strong stagger and safely interrupts his actions from range.

Phase Two: Fire Is Your Best Friend

Switch to Fire-Infused Damage

During phase two, Lumacchio becomes susceptible to fire. Equip weapons like the Salamander Dagger or Flameberge Legion Arm to burn through his HP quickly.

He also starts using decay damage at this point, so make sure to carry Purification Ampules to cleanse the debuff.

Puppet String or Aegis for Defense

Puppet String allows quick hits and resets. For a safer approach, use Aegis to block his heavy attacks without taking full damage.

Keep some Repair Tools handy—his wide-area attacks can drag the fight out if you're not careful.

Final Decision: Punish or Let Go

After the battle, Lumacchio pleads for mercy. If you’re unsure what choice to make, check our complete guide on whether to Punish or Spare Lumacchio.
