Curious how to kill the third boss, Bonemass, in Valheim? In this tutorial, we’ll show you how!
Preparations
Before you engage in combat with Bonemass, you’ll need to do some prep work:
Step #1 – Gather 10 withered bones. You can find these in muddy scrap piles in the swamp dungeons or lying around in dungeons.
Step #2 – Drink a poison resistance mead. They last for 10 minutes, so two of them should do the trick. Craft them in the cauldron and ferment them in the barrels.
Step #3 – Have good gear. In particular, fully upgraded bronze or iron gear should do the trick.
Note: the boss is weak to blunt/impact damage. Hit him with a mace, hammer, or club.
Step #4 – Bring food. While each food has its place, honey should be one of the food you bring with you. Honey has the highest HP healing per tick in the game (5 HP/tick). It helps with poison if you get hit.
Step #5 – The location of Bonemass can be found at a red location stone inside the swamp dungeons.
Bonemass – Attack Types
The boss has three primary methods of attack. His first attack is him reaching back and throwing some green mass that is more than it appears. When the mass hits the ground, it will spawn additional enemies you’ll have to deal with. Neat trick.
His second attack is an Area of Effect poison attack. When the boss is billowing that poisonous muck, you’ll want to stand clear of him. The poison has a pretty wide radius, so get high tailin’ out of there as soon as he starts to bubble. The anti-poison mead along with the fast-healing honey comes in handy here.
His third and final attack is a melee one; he will sweep either his left or right arm at you and clobbers you with it. Pretty straightforward. It looks somewhat like a pimp slap and can come from either side. Dodge it or block it, you don’t have many choices really.
Oh, and when he dies, you’ll get a nice fancy trophy and a wishbone. Neat.
