How to beat Gunkin Perry Boss in Scarlet Nexus
The Gunkin Perry is another major fight and Yuito’s first boss. It’ll just be you and Hanabi for this one, but that’s all you’ll need to remove it.
First of all, the boss has some attacks that you need to watch out for. It will slide or roll over you if you get too close and you may notice that it has a container of oil on the back. This is the dangerous part here, as it will sometimes shoot oil at you from a distance.
Being soaked in oil prevents you from dodging, making you more vulnerable to Gunkin Perry’s melee attacks. A neon symbol appears above your head when the effect of the oil condition affects you, but try to avoid it at all costs.
Your goal here is to use your powers to take down the concrete pipes hanging over the area. These building materials can be taken down using Psychokinesis while holding LT on Xbox or L2 on PlayStation, but this can only be done when Gunkin Perry is directly below them.
The boss has an attack where he jumps towards you, and that’s the move you want to prime. Get under whatever building material you want to put down, and the Gunkin Perry should snap into place when you dodge using Circle on PS or B on Xbox. Then press and hold LT / L2 to pull the materials down on top of each other. It will fall and stay immobile long enough for you to do more damage with Hanabi’s Pyrokinesis SAS ability.
Activate Hanabi’s ability, then use a combination of melee attacks and Yuito’s psychokinetic tracking to spray trash around the area and quickly reduce the boss’s health.
Repeat this process remembering to avoid the oil pulling you from a distance. When his health drops low enough, he’ll shoot more oil at once in a scatter pattern, but you should still be able to dodge him quite easily.
